Kinesiological, Neuroanatomical, and Clinical Aspects in Kyphosis - for Hyper Adaptive Exercise Therapy Program

Dr. Gill Solberg

In the continued search for the etiology of hyperkyphosis,
exercise therapists began to recognize the multifactorial nature of the
problem and the difficulty in establishing an accurate definition of
"posture norms". This presentation focuses on a comprehensive
integrative approach to treating hyperkyphosis. Its purpose is to expand
and enrich the use of adapted exercises both therapeutically and in
regular activity for improving postural patterns in daily functioning.
Spinal mobility and control is affected by the regular movement and
functioning of dozens of small joints between the vertebrae. A local
constraint directly affects range of movement in that particular area,
and indirectly affects other areas above and below it due to various
chain reactions.
The presentation will include important practical tools related to:
1.Anatomical background – structure of upper and lower back segments
2.motor control and thoracic spine sensorial representation in the brain
3.Thoracic spinal mobility exercises in Therapy
4.Designing integrative vs. isolated mobility exercises
5.Active vs. passive mobility exercises.
6.Anatomical constraints vs. motor learning and control training.
7.Using sensory feedback to improve motor and mobility control
8. Touch and manual techniques in individual guidance.
The presentation will include a clinical case-study video, combined with
a didactic power point presentation using original high level interactive
animations focusing on the kinesiology of human movement.
