Physiotherapeutic treatment in patients with heel spurs

The heel spur is a disorder resulting from biomechanical abnormalities of the foot. The problem affects people of different ages and arises as a result of repeated micro-injuries within the flexor digitorum brevis. The main reason for treating patients is pain. There are many conservative methods of treatment of heel spurs and related complaints resulting from inflammation of the plantar foot aponeurosis. The most effective include: kinesitherapy, physiotherapy, manual therapy and dynamic slicing. Available research indicate the effectiveness of the therapy with the use of: stretching exercises, ultrasounds, low and high-energy laser therapy, shockwave, vibroacoustics, relaxation of myofascial trigger points and therapeutic tapering

The role of proprioceptive system in the rehabilitation of patients after Achilles tendon reconstruction

Achilles tendon injury is a major clinical problem because it prevents proper functioning of the patient. The recommended procedure in the event of tendon rupture is surgical treatment - reconstruction of tendon reconstruction. The aim of surgical treatment of Achilles tendon rupture is to bring back its function by restoring the correct length and tension of the tendon and to obtain the highest possible functional state of the patient. The selection of the optimal post-operative rehabilitation programme with a predominance of functional physiotherapy elements is an essential part of the treatment of Achilles tendon rupture. A proper rehabilitation after the surgery enables the patient to achieve better functional results. During the surgery proprioceptors are damaged, that is why the treatment working on three levels of motor control should be introduced as fast as possible, such as kinesthetic or proprioceptive training

Different forms movement therapy used in rehabilitation of Parkinson's disease

The causes of Parkinson's disease have not yet been strictly defined, which is why it is a serious social problem nowadays. The problem stems mainly from the fact that pharmacological methods have not been developed to such an extent to completely cure the disease. Due to the application of those methods, it is primarily expected to cause the delay in the development of disease symptoms. An important role in the reduction of progressive disease symptoms is performed by non-pharmacological forms of rehabilitation. In addition to standard kinesitherapy, the following are of great therapeutic importance: choreotherapy, music therapy, massage, physical therapy, and balneotherapy. The use of these methods positively affects the general state of physical fitness of the patient, moreover, it contributes to the delay in the development of characteristic symptoms of Parkinson's disease such as muscle stiffness, tremor, and slowness of movement. The variety of implemented interventions not only improves the patient's functional status but also contributes to the increase of self-esteem and psychological well-being

Rehabilitation of speech in Parkinson's disease

Parkinson's disease in spite of being nowadays considered as an inauspicious health prognosis because of its incurable nature, can be combated by the use of a number of non-pharmacological methods. With their help a patient will be able to retain full independence and mobility as long as possible. The immediate cause of the disease is a disorder of the proper functioning of the extrapyramidal system, which is associated with the occurrence of characteristic symptoms such as dysfunction of the musculoskeletal system and the autonomic nervous system, abnormal sensation and mental disorders. Planning of the improvement is guided by the presence of the primary symptoms such as muscle rigidity, slowness of movement and tremor. One of the effects of the co-occurrence of these symptoms are speech disorders. There is a number of characteristic features for speech disorders of a person with Parkinson's disease and they mainly concern its quality. These dysfunctions negatively affect the patient's communication with the environment. Properly implemented physical activity brings beneficial results, causing a delay in the buildup of disease symptoms

Back pain persons engaged in rowing

Introduction: the dynamic and multi-directional development of sport and the relentless pursuit of victory or improve the outcome necessitated increasing workloads. Implementation of the process leads to the expected changes in the morphological structures and motor skills of players and despite the widespread use of wellness, often results in injuries, however, of an overload. Literature, it can be concluded that the problem of overload injuries in rowing sports exists and often affects the lower spine. Thus the objective is to determine the incidence of pain lumbar spine paddlers and their evaluation. Was the hypothesis of the scale of the problem among men and women and its escalation in a group of players with more professional seniority and applying the paddles long. Material and method: the study involved training people Rowing Club RTW Lotto-"Bydgostia" during the start, which are characterized by a relatively high load, which are characterized by a relatively high load.                Uses the exclusive survey measured basic morphological and clinical tests, questionnaires, and functional research rated the intensity of pain and degree of loss of movable active lumbar spine. Obtained the test results sets 34 men and 35 women of different ages and progress. It has been developed the basic statistical methods taking into account the diversity of the occurrence of pain in the spine or the lack of their statements, as well as training experience and type of used oars.   Statistic; Uses the test Shapiro-Wolf, t-Student, Kruskal-Walis and Pearson Chi square, and to the assessment of the traineeship training and clinical test results, test the correlation of Spearman. Statistical analysis was performed on the significance level p < 0.05.                Test results: it was found that the teams examined the men and women of varied lack of or presence of pain disorders have similar average size basic morphological however, they differ in terms of used paddles and internship training. It analysis of the diversification of the results of the tests carried out clinical trials, for the most part does not show significant differences. Men without pain, however, is characterized by a significantly higher average test result Schober in the back. The diversity was found slightly more frequent differences structure interest teams fixed functional test results that indicate the trail of problems in the lumbar spine mobility players with pains, ailments.     Among the men found them in the study of folds, and among the women in the study the hyperextension and slider on the right, and the results of numerical correlation Spearman test results and clinical internship training show little of their relationship and the total lack of statistical significance.                Conclusions: The basic characteristics of the physical persons engaged in rowing are not factor significantly in the presence of back pain, which can, however, grow in the process of long-term training on the shore. Increased its frequency among players short paddles indicates the need for exercise, and among the contestants paddles long multidisciplinary action to restore the symmetry of the body. To reduce the function of the spine, and thus causing pain persons engaged in rowing in the increasingly determined by other factors related to the size and volume of loads and conditions for their implementation, as well as predisposed health and supporting biological renewal training
