Download or read book The Comprehensive Manual of Therapeutic Exercises written by Elizabeth Bryan and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-06-01 with total page 1275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Therapeutic exercises can be found spread out amongst numerous texts, handouts, card boxes, and websites, which has sent clinicians, practitioners, and trainers searching for reliable, evidence-based exercises for the entire body, all packaged into a single, all-inclusive manual. To that end, The Comprehensive Manual of Therapeutic Exercises: Orthopedic and General Conditions was written as a fundamental resource on exercise theory and techniques, and as a comprehensive guide for designing exercise programs. Dr. Elizabeth Bryan has compiled thousands of clinically relevant exercises to create a text that will teach students theory and proper application that they will then return to again and again in their career as a reference to aid in designing evidence-based exercise programs for their clients or patients. Introductory chapters cover exercise parameters, exercise progression, the importance of form, muscle soreness, and a reference for body position terminology, then subsequent chapters are organized by body area to cover most of the clinical exercises in use today. Each exercise includes photographs, a list of muscle systems that will be affected, specific substitutions to look for, and detailed instructions directed at students and clinicians. Also included are sections devoted to protocols and specialty exercises including yoga and tai chi. Embracing the principles of evidence-based practice, “Where’s the Evidence?” boxes are prominently featured throughout the text to support the exercises and theory with up-to-date, relevant, sufficient, valid, and reliable studies. Combining theory with practice, The Comprehensive Manual of Therapeutic Exercises: Orthopedic and General Conditions is an essential tool for students as well as clinicians, practitioners, or trainers to find the most appropriate exercises for their client’s or patient’s needs and apply them properly.

This book was released on 2023-12-04 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Incorporating Exercise with Other Therapies for Beginners Therapeutic exercise is a specialized form of physical activity designed to restore, maintain, or enhance physical function and overall health. It is a systematic and purposeful intervention that utilizes various movements, exercises, and activities to address specific impairments, disabilities, or limitations within the musculoskeletal, neuromuscular, cardiovascular, and other physiological systems. Unlike general exercise, therapeutic exercise is tailored to individual needs and is often prescribed by healthcare professionals, such as physical therapists, to optimize recovery and improve the quality of life for individuals with various health conditions. At its core, therapeutic exercise aims to promote optimal function and independence by targeting specific physiological goals. These goals may include improving range of motion, enhancing muscle strength, addressing joint stability, promoting cardiovascular fitness, and optimizing neuromuscular coordination. The exercises prescribed are carefully selected based on the individual's diagnosis, physical abilities, and therapeutic objectives, making therapeutic exercise a highly individualized and patient-centered approach to rehabilitation and wellness. The scope of therapeutic exercise extends across a wide range of health conditions, including but not limited to orthopedic injuries, neurological disorders, cardiopulmonary diseases, and chronic pain syndromes. It plays a crucial role in the multidisciplinary field of rehabilitation, working in conjunction with other therapeutic modalities to achieve comprehensive and holistic patient care. Key components of therapeutic exercise include flexibility exercises to improve joint mobility, strengthening exercises to enhance muscle function, endurance activities to promote cardiovascular health, and functional exercises that mimic activities of daily living. The integration of these components into a cohesive exercise program is essential for addressing the unique needs of each individual and maximizing the therapeutic benefits. GET YOUR COPY!!!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book introduces the Neurological Training and Educating Technical System (NTETS), providing readers with a useful tool for the recovery of motor function after incurring CNS lesions. NTETS is based on the essential theories of Chinese medicine, central nervous system plasticity and motor function, using the six-step Chinese Daoyin technique to induce the CNS potency. This rehabilitation technique not only applies to acute stage patients who suffer from motor dysfunction caused by CNS lesions, but is also used for regaining motor function in long-term patients who have not experienced any improved motor function through the common rehabilitation methods of today. This informative book on NTETS is a beneficial supplement to modern rehabilitation medicine and serves as a valuable resource for rehabilitation doctors, nurses, graduate students in this field or employees working in neurology, neurosurgery, orthopaedics and geriatrics departments.

Book excerpt: When people think about physical exercise, they imagine athletic competitions and sculpted bodies. More than simply a way to achieve the best performance or a beautiful shape, physical exercise can promote and reestablish health. Physical therapy is a specific area of the health sciences specialized in treating and recovering the human body impaired by illness, an accident or surgeries. In order to restore the human body's functionality, physical therapy has several different techniques and resources that include physical exercises as an important tool used in rehabilitation programs. Throughout this book, you will encounter different physical exercises used in physical therapy to evaluate and establish rehabilitation programs. These are aimed at revitalizing the body's function in five different areas: cardiorespiratory, orthopedics, neurology, gynecology and gerontology. In the cardiorespiratory section, you will understand the importance of oxygen provision during postural challenges a dynamic exercises. In addition, this same section explains the beneficial effects of physical exercises for patients with coronary artery disease and how physical exercises are used for pulmonary rehabilitation. The orthopedics section has very important concepts about how physical exercises are used to treat patellofemoral pain, knee osteoarthritis and shoulder dysfunctions. The neurology section brings actual concepts about the use of gait training for neurological rehabilitation; it explains the importance of strength training applied to neurorehabilitation and how physical exercises can be used to treat children with cerebral palsy. The gerontology section demonstrates the importance of motivation and adherence to physical exercises by elderly adults and also their dropout. Finally, the gynecology section brings concepts and physical exercises to evaluate and rehabilitate the pelvic floor muscles. It also brings to light the effects of physical activity on these muscles in pregnant women.

Download or read book Therapeutic Exercise Protocols written by Faisal Yahya Tawhari and published by Horizon Books ( A Division of Ignited Minds Edutech P Ltd). This book was released on with total page 83 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is for individuals who would like to help other individuals to recover their control of movement. Neuromuscular rehabilitation is straightforward and uncomplicated: we all do it naturally all of the time. Throughout our lives we learn new movement patterns or recover our control after an injury. The means by which we achieve these changes are no different to neuromuscular rehabilitation. They all rely on the same neurophysiological, psychological and behavioral processes. Neuromuscular rehabilitation integrates several branches of knowledge. They include medical, neurophysiological, psychological behavioral and motor-control sciences as well as manual and physical therapy fields. The enormity of available information from these diverse sources can be overwhelming, in particular when trying to translate this information into a practical clinical approach. The main aim in writing this book was to collate and integrate all this information and present it in a practical, user-friendly format. Over the years of working in clinics I have observed that neuromuscular rehabilitation of a person after joint surgery or musculoskeletal injury bears close resemblance to the clinical management of a stroke patient. It was clear to me that there is a unifying model for neuromuscular rehabilitation. However, it took a good decade and a half to put it together into a coherent and cohesive model, and one which is still being tinkered with. This unified model for neuromuscular rehabilitation is described throughout the book.
