23.01.2022 The Lumbodorsal Fascia (fascia lumbodorsalis) is a deep investing membrane which covers the deep muscles of the back of the trunk. Above, it passes in front of the Serratus posterior superior and is continuous with a similar investing layer on the back of the neckthe nuchal fascia. In the thoracic region the lumbodorsal fascia is a thin fibrous lamina which serves to bind down the Extensor muscles of the vertebral column and to separate them from the muscles connecting the vertebral column to the upper extremity.

17.01.2022 Neglecting Your Hip Abductors and Adductors Can Mess Up Your Walk, Sleep and Balance You use them every time you take a step : The main job of your hip adductors is to move the leg in toward the midline, and hip abductors to move the leg out. But another important role of those muscles is to stabilize your pelvis when you walk : if you lifted your left leg up without changing the position of your pelvis, you would topple over to your left. To avoid falling, your right leg ne...eds to shift more toward the midline, which is accomplished by your adductors contracting and your abductors stabilizing. Therefore the imbalance between your adductors and abductors will affect your walking gait and your balance. WHAT IS THE LINK BETWEEN MY HIP PAIN AND CROSSING MY KNEES WHILE SITTING? Whenever you sit with your legs crossed for an extended period of time, you tighten your hip adductors (inner thighs) and weaken your hip abductors (outer hip). As we sit more and more and walk less and less, this pattern of imbalance becomes more common and more pronounced. This dysfunctional relationship can result in difficulties with walking and balance, and also hip pain. This pain is likely to show up while walking or while lying on an affected side at night. HOW TO RESTORE THE BALANCE ADDUCTOR / ABDUCTOR ? - release tension in the adductors (inner thigh) - strengthen the abductors (outer hip). Remember that hip abductors play dual roles as movers and as stabilizers, so ideally we would want to use them in both capacities. In our yoga practice we often work on the stabilizing role of the abductors by balancing on one leg. Here is an interesting thing: if the abductors on one side are not strong enough to hold the pelvis level, the QL (quadratus lumborum) muscle on the other side might step in to help pull the hip up. Which means that in a pose like the Tree Pose, for example, one hip will be pulling up. ADDUCTORS AND PIRIFORMIS : piriformis muscle is responsible for rotating your hip outward and is a common reason for the literal pain in the butt. Another job that your adductors AND abductors do is rotate your hip inward. If either of them gets tight they can pull your hip inward, putting strain on the piriformis muscle. To summarize In your yoga practice make sure to include the movements that contract and stretch your inner thighs, as well as movements that make your hip abductors both stabilize the pelvis and move the leg out to the side. And watch out for compensation patterns from other muscles!

14.01.2022 The proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation = PNF Illustrated with yoga : Baddha Konasana / Bound Angle Pose the PNF is a technic who can increase your stretching : on the Bound Angle Pose, you have tried pressing on the knees, putting weights on them, and you can’t get the results you want... so let s doing differently..... - Analyze Your general pose : The hips flex, abduct, and externally rotate and the knees flex. - Next, look at the muscles that ENGAGE to produce this position. The hip abductors (and their synergist, the sartorius) draw the knees apart and towards the floor. - The external rotators turn the thighs out, and the hamstrings flex the knees. Gently engage these muscles. - Next, feel which muscles are STRETCHING. The muscles that stretch in a pose are the same ones that can limit openings. Here, tight adductors of the hips (muscles that act to draw the knees together) can restrict lowering the knees towards the floor. *************************** Once you have identified the muscle group that is stretching, use PNF to stretch the adductors even more. This works nicely to bring the knees closer to the floor Apply Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF) - Grasp the feet with the hands and bend the elbows to place them in the crease between the lower legs and thighs. -Activate the biceps and brachialis muscles to flex the elbows a bit further. This will bring the knees a little lower and stretch the adductors out to their set length. -Keep the biceps and brachialis engaged and then CONTRACT THE ADDUCTOR GROUP : lift the knees and draw them towards the midline. The elbows will prevent the thighs from moving, but activating the adductors will stimulate the Golgi tendon organs at their muscle-tendon junction. Hold this contraction for 5/6 smooth deep breaths, (maximum of 20% of your force). -Then relax the adductors and gently activate the tensor fascia lata and gluteus medius (muscles that abduct the knees towards the floor) by pressing the soles of the feet together. Engage the hamstrings to flex the knees, by squeezing the lower legs into the thighs and bringing the heels closer to the pelvis. This helps to maintain the integrity of the knee joint. Repeat this entire process once more before coming out of the pose. Don't worry if your thighs do not come all the way down to the floor. Rather, look for improvement in the pose and then work on it again in subsequent practice sessions. Opposite stretch : Dandasana. This balances the stretch of the adductors by engaging them to bring the legs together

13.01.2022 The LABRUM is a disk of cartilage on the glenoid, or "socket" side of the shoulder joint. It helps stabilize the joint and acts as a "bumper" to limit excessive motion of the humerus, the "ball" side of the shoulder joint. More importantly, it holds the humerus securely to the glenoid, almost as if suction were involved. Although the glenoid itself is a relatively flat surface, the labrum's cuff-like contour gives the glenoid a more concave shape. The secure but flexible fit ...of the humerus within the glenoid permits the great range motion of the healthy shoulder. How is the labrum injured? Tears of the labrum can be the result of: - a direct fall or blow to the arm resulting in abnormal movement of the humerus. - repetitive trauma of the greater tuberosity and rotator cuff on the posterior (back of) labrum. This is termed internal impingement (pinching of the soft tissues) and is most commonly seen in baseball and tennis athletes whose arms are frequently in overhead positions. SLAP tear (sup. labral anterior to post. tear). : a tear that occurs on the top of the labrum, extending from the front to the back of the cartilage. This injury affects the attachment of the biceps tendon to the glenoid. An injury in this area can be extremely painful, and can cause the biceps tendon to rupture. Treatment depends on the stability of the biceps anchor and the type of tear that has occurred. These injuries are commonly the result of: - a fall on an outstretched arm. - a forceful lifting maneuver. - repetitive throwing. It is very important for the surgeon to determine whether or not the labral tear is associated with instability of the shoulder. A tear of the labrum not associated with instability can be treated surgically by itself, but the treatment of a labral tear in an unstable shoulder will only be successful if the shoulder is surgically stabilized at the same time. Bankart lesion or Bankart tear : It is a tear to the anterior and inferior portion of the labrum near where it blends in with inferior glenohumeral ligament (Figure 4). This portion of the joint capsule and labral complex can also be stressed in repetitive overhead motions, such as throwing or serving a tennis ball. The Bankart lesion is also relatively common when the shoulder is dislocated as the humeral head pulls on the anterior inferior portion of the capsule as it moves out of the joint. Sudden forceful trauma to the joint, such as falling on an outstretched arm, is another cause of labral tears. The labral tear may occur from excessive tensile loads from the joint capsule or from the humeral head being thrust against the back side of the labrum. In some more traumatic cases of the Bankart tear, a chunk of bone gets pulled away when the inferior glenohumeral ligament and labrum pull away from the glenoid fossa. This is called a Bankart fracture and requires an arthroscopic surgical procedure to repair.

11.01.2022 the body moves more as a whole-body myofascial tensegrity system than a system of individual muscles and levers.

09.01.2022 FROZEN SHOUDER The process usually begins with an injury (such as a fracture) or inflammation of the soft tissues, typically due to overuse injuries such as bursitis or tendinitis of the rotator cuff. Inflammation causes pain that is worse with movement and limits the shoulder's range of motion. When the shoulder becomes immobilized in this way, the connective tissue surrounding the glenohumeral joint the joint capsule thickens and contracts, losing its normal capacity to... stretch. Trying to avoid the pain caused by moving the shoulder leads to further contraction of the capsule. The humerus has less space to move in, and the joint may lose its lubricating synovial fluid. In advanced cases, bands of scar tissue (adhesions) form between the joint capsule and the head of the humerus. A frozen shoulder may take two to nine months to develop. Although the pain may slowly improve, stiffness continues, and range of motion remains limited.
