Correlation between physical performance and stabilometric parameters in older adults
(MDPI, 2022)
Background and Objectives: Falls are a common and serious threat to the health and independence of older adults. The decrease in functional capacity during aging means an increased risk of falls. To ...
Short-term effects of three types of hamstring stretching on length, neurodynamic response, and perceived sense of effort: a randomised cross-over trial
(MDPI, 2022)
Background: Stretching techniques for hamstring muscles have been described both to increase muscle length and to evaluate nerve mechanosensitivity. Aim: We sought to evaluate the short-term effects of ...
In vitro upper cervical spine kinematics: rotation with combined movements and its variation after alar ligament transection
(Elsevier, 2022)
Previous studies indicate that maximum upper cervical axial rotation occurs only through a combination of transverse, frontal, and sagittal plane motions. This study explores the relationship between ...
Combination of two manipulative techniques for the treatment of cervicogenic dizziness: a randomized controlled trial
(MDPI, 2022)
Cervicogenic dizziness is clinically associated with upper cervical spine dysfunctions. It seems that manual therapy decreases the intensity of dizziness in these subjects, but what happens to pain ...
Is cervical stabilization exercise immediately effective in patients with chronic neck pain and upper cervical spine dysfunction? Randomized controlled trial
(MDPI, 2022)
Purpose: To compare the effectiveness of a single exercise session with manual therapy techniques in the segments of the upper cervical spine (C0–1, C1–2 and C2–3), against a single exercise session in ...
