Filter by:Tension-type headache is a headache that starts from the cervical and suboccipital regions, spreads from the back of the head to the parietal, frontal and temporal regions, and is felt in the form of compression, pressure and heaviness. Increased muscle and fascia tone in the cervical and cranial region, together with active trigger points and factors that trigger pain, cause tension-type headache. Head and neck fascia serves as an important proprioceptive structure in our body. Abnormal inputs from mechanoreceptors and structures around the joint cause deterioration in joint position sense. This study was planned to investigate the effects of the new facial distortion model on pain intensity, cervical posture and joint position sense, unlike the manual techniques used in previous studies in tension-type headache.
To determine the combined effects of proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation and electrical muscle stimulation on spasticity and hand function in stroke patients.
With the change in lifestyle, most physical tasks are now performed by machines. As a result, sitting has become the most common learning posture and office posture, and cervical and lumbar spondylosis are becoming increasingly prevalent in younger people. One-third of life is devoted to sleep, and bad sleeping posture can place incorrect strain on the cervical and lumbar spine, resulting in irreversible and detrimental repercussions if not treated seriously. Sleep disorders have become an important public health concern because they can have detrimental effects on both mental and physical health. A pillow can give adequate support for the head and neck and assist sleepers in maintaining proper neck and thoracic curvature. Studies have demonstrated that a comfortable sleeping pillow helps relax the neck muscles, hence facilitating sleep, and efficiently alleviate pain in the neck, shoulders, back, and head. There is consensus among researchers that supporting the natural lordotic curve of the cervical spine is necessary to achieve longer periods of deep sleep. In addition, a pillow can improve sleep quality by cooling the head, lowering body temperature, reducing sweating or slowing the heart rate during sleep. However, the level of evidence to support these claims is so far limited. It has been claimed by pillow manufacturers that many design-related pillow parameters are effective in improving sleep quality and reducing neck pain. However, most of these recommendations are based on personal experience. This study recommends the most suitable pillow for people in forward head postures based on the body pressure distribution of the head, neck and upper body. The proposed pillows were evaluated in two parameters: comfort and support.
Sensory disorders are one of the most important problems in individuals with MS, and these disorders are among the first symptoms of MS. Loss of sense of proprioception is particularly common in patients with MS. Studies show that assessment methods for the quantitative measurement of sensory disorders are lacking. Especially in the clinic, there is no evaluation method that evaluates the sense of proprioception. Therefore, the aim of this study perform the validity and reliability study of the lower extremity position test to evaluate proprioception sense in individuals with MS.
The objective of the study is to compare, with or without wearing an elastic proprioceptive knee brace, the functional proprioceptive capacity of the knee in patients suffering from proprioceptive deficit.
This project assesses the feasibility, reliability, and validity of the PROMT in children with a UMN lesion. The study questions are: is the newly developed PROMT a feasible, reliable, and valid tool to assess lower limb proprioception in children with UMN lesions? Does the PROMT differ between children with UMN lesion and controlled neurotypically developing peers? Further, does the proprioception modalities assessed with the PROMT correlate with motor function in this group of children?
This study aime to investigate the effects of balance and proprioception exercises using two different methods (classical balance training and Balance System™ SD) in addition to strengthening exercises on dynamic balance, pain, functional status and quality of life in patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA).
Cerebral Palsy (CP) is a non-progressive neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by posture and movement disorders as a result of damage to the immature brain for any reason before, during or after birth.In addition to tone, postural and neuromuscular control in children with Cerebral Palsy; Problems are also observed in communication skills, perceptual and cognitive systems and sensory systems.
To determine effects of proprioceptive activities on hand function in chronic stroke patients
The loss of sensorial feedback causes gait impairment in hemiparesis. The studies show that proprioceptive impairment of knee is related to falling in these patients. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of proprioception on balance and gait functions in hemiparetic individuals.
