The plank, also called a front hold, hover, or abdominal bridge is an isometric core strength exercise that involves maintaining a position similar to a push-up for the maximum possible time. The plank strengthens the abdominals, back and shoulders. Muscles involved in the front plank include: 1️⃣Primary muscles: erector spinae, rectus abdominis (abs), and transverse abdominis. 2️⃣Secondary muscles (synergists/segmental stabilizers): trapezius (traps), rhomboids, rotator cuff, the anterior, medial, and posterior deltoid muscles (delts), pectorals (pecs), serratus anterior, gluteus maximus (glutes), quadriceps (quads), and gastrocnemius. Muscles involved in the side plank include: 1️⃣Primary: transversus abdominis muscle, gluteus medius and gluteus minimus muscles (abductors), the adductor muscles of the hip, and the external, and internal obliques. 2️⃣Secondary: gluteus maximus (glutes), quadriceps (quads), and hamstrings. #stayfitwithanand #physiotherapy #physio #physiogram #instagram #health #healthylifestyle #fitness #iaftworld #fitnessmotivation https://www.instagram.com/p/CNSoc73jADo/?igshid=wmijn7n3ahme

Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) is a rare neurological disorder in which the body's immune system mistakenly attacks part of its peripheral nervous system—the network of nerves located outside of the brain and spinal cord. GBS can range from a very mild case with brief weakness to nearly devastating paralysis, leaving the person unable to breathe independently. Fortunately, most people eventually recover from even the most severe cases of GBS. After recovery, some people will continue to have some degree of weakness. The exact cause of GBS is not known. Researchers don’t know why it strikes some people and not others. It is not contagious or inherited. tingling in the feet or hands, or even pain (especially in children), often starting in the legs or back. Children will also show symptoms with difficulty walking and may refuse to walk. These sensations tend to disappear before the major, longer-term symptoms appear. Weakness on both sides of the body is the major symptom that prompts most people to seek medical attention. The weakness may first appear as difficulty climbing stairs or with walking. Symptoms often affect the arms, breathing muscles, and even the face, reflecting more widespread nerve damage. Occasionally symptoms start in the upper body and move down to the legs and feet. Various ideas have been proposed to explain how GBS develops. One explanation is known as the “molecular mimicry/innocent bystander” theory. According to this explanation, molecules on some nerves are very similar to or mimic molecules on some microorganisms. When those microbes infect someone, the immune system correctly attacks them. And if the microbe and myelin look similar, the immune system makes a mistake and attacks the myelin. Aims of physiotherapy management are: 1. Regain the patient's independence with everyday tasks. 2. Retrain the normal movement patterns. 3.Improve patients posture. 4.Improve the balance and coordination. 5.

Biceps femoris   1.       Chair hamstring stretch -          Rest one of your legs on a chair -          Keep your back straight and chest up -          Slowly bend forward at the hips until you feel a tension. -          Hold this position for 20-30 seconds. Repeat the stretch as many times as you can throughout your day   2.       Sitting hamstring stretch -          Sit on the floor with your back at 90 degrees and legs rested on the ground. -          One of your legs should be flexed towards your body -          Place your hands on the shin of your tested leg. -          Slowly flex your hip toward until you feel a tension. -          Hold this position for 20-30 seconds. Repeat the stretch as many times as you can throughout your day.   Reference ·         https://www.stretching-exercises-guide.com/hip-stretches.html . . . #discover_physiotherapy #physiostudent #physiotherapy #physio #physiogram #physiotherapists #stretchingexercises #stretches #stretchingroutine #stretching #stretch #stretchtherapy #thigh #fitness #fitnesslove #fitnesslife #fitnessgoals #fitnessmotivation #fitnessjourney #fitnesslifestyle https://www.instagram.com/p/CHBdLI1nbBI/?igshid=1nuypsquebl19

Cerebral palsy   What is Cerebral palsy? According to the NHS, cerebral palsy is “the name for a group of lifelong conditions that affect movement and co-ordination. It's caused by a problem with the brain that develops before, during or soon after birth.”     Symptoms “Symptoms become noticeable in the first 2 or 3 years of a child's life.” The symptoms are: delays in reaching development milestones – for example, not sitting by 8 months or not walking by 18 months seeming too stiff or too floppy weak arms or legs fidgety, jerky or clumsy movements random, uncontrolled movements walking on tiptoes a range of other problems – such as swallowing difficulties, speaking problems, vision problems and learning disabilities ·         Vary from each person as it may be minor or lead to the people being “severely disabled”.   Causes ·         Caused by undeveloped brain “while in the womb, is damaged during or soon after birth.” ·         Causes of cerebral palsy include: o   bleeding in the baby's brain or reduced blood and oxygen supply to their brain o   an infection caught by the mother during pregnancy o   the brain temporarily not getting enough oxygen (asphyxiation) during a difficult birth o   meningitis o   a serious head injury   Treatment ·         Currently no cure but there is treatment, such as: o   physiotherapy – techniques such as exercise and stretching to help maintain physical ability and hopefully improve movement problems o   speech therapy to help with speech and communication, and swallowing difficulties o   occupational therapy – where a therapist identifies problems that you or your child have carrying out everyday tasks, and suggests ways to make these easier o   medicine for muscle stiffness and other difficulties o   in some cases, surgery to treat movement or growth problems Reference https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/cerebral-palsy/ . . . #discover_physiotherapy #physiostudent #physiotherapy #physio #physiogram #physiotherapists #neurophysiology #neuroscience #neurodiversity #neuro #neurology #brain #brainhealth #braintumor #celebral #palsy # https://www.instagram.com/p/CG8G9VHngEP/?igshid=1d3yqivwzz7j6

Connective Tissue’s Fibres   Types of Fibres ·         There are three types of fibres that provide support: o   Collagen Fibres – “Fibrous proteins and are secreted into the extracellular space and they provide high tensile strength to the matrix.” This can be found in your bones, cartilages, tendons and ligaments. o   Elastic Fibres – “Long, thin fibres that form a branching network in the extracellular matrix. They help the connective tissue to stretch and recoil.” This can be found in your skin, blood vessels, lung tissues and small percentage in tendons. o   Reticular Fibres – “short, fine collagenous fibres that can branch extensively to form a delicate network.” It “acts as a supporting mesh in soft tissues such as liver, bone marrow, and the tissues and organs of the lymphatic system”.   Reference ·         https://courses.lumenlearning.com/boundless-ap/chapter/connective-tissue/ ·         https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reticular_fiber . . . #discover_physiotherapy #physiotherapy #physiotherapy_world #physio #physiogram #physiotherapystudent #physiolife #physiostudent #physiotherapie #physiology #exercisephysiology #anatomyandphysiology #fibres #tissue #education #educational #educationmatters #educationalresources #educationfirst https://www.instagram.com/p/CG4leW7HjD5/?igshid=3k2wy1f758xl
