Description
This collection
is based on Shirley Sahrmann’s book: Diagnosis and Treatment of Movement
Impairment Syndromes published by Mosby, A Harcourt Health Sciences
Company.
Everyone needs exercise but not all exercises can generally be
recommended for all individuals. Optimal control of alignment and
specific joint movement is the necessary foundation upon which to add
the strengthening and endurance exercises. The “control” exercises
provide the means of not only remediating but also preventing musculo-skeletal
pain problems.
Many of the exercises in this collection are components of basic
movements used in daily activities and will only be effective if the
correct performance of the patient’s most frequently performed daily
activities is also addressed in his treatment program. Exercise programs
do not have to be complex but they must fit the patient’s needs and they
must be performed correctly. Most often the simplest exercises are the
most effective. But only if they are consistent in addressing the
problem and if they have been well taught to the patient.
