Dr. Naveen has proposed and clinically proved upon thousands of patients about exact pathomechanics of genu varum and valgum from simple knee dysfunctions. There by revolutionizing the exact cause of the arthritis of the knee. With this knowledge one can diagnose any kind of the knee dysfunctions early and treat with more accuracy. Based on that above (Hip) and below (Foot) Bio and Pathomechanics missing link is solved. Added to this discovery, specific spring tests are applied for the first time on knee, hip and foot joint dysfunctions to accurately diagnose and therefore to treat. And associated soft tissue assessment and treatment by using Deep Friction has been explained in detail. Recent research articles are proved the Mechanics of synovial fluid influx and outflux, Condylar cartilage nutrition, Joint stability and Vascular flow in relation to joint movement and pressure variation inside the joint. Which will help us to understand how knee arthritis can be reversed to normal with Orthopaedic Manual Therapy without knee replacement. Author's innovative lower limb pathomechanics will give insight into how genu varum and valgum will affect the mechanics of hip and foot and vise versa, therefore, this innovate pathomechanics will guide a physiotherapist to treat lower limb dysfunctions more accurately. And more over to prevent recurrence.

Download or read book Hip and Knee Pain Disorders written by Various and published by Jessica Kingsley Publishers. This book was released on 2022-06-21 with total page 458 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hip and Knee Pain Disorders has been written to provide a state-of-the-art, evidence-informed and clinically-informed overview of the examination and conservative management of hip/knee pain conditions. Under the current predominantly evidence-based practice paradigm, clinician expertise, patient preference, and best available research determine examination, and prognostic and clinical management decisions. However, this paradigm has been understood by many to place greater value and emphasis on the research component, thereby devaluing the other two. Evidence-informed practice is a term that has been suggested to honor the original intent of evidence-based practice, while also acknowledging the value of clinician experience and expertise. In essence, evidence-informed practice combines clinical reasoning, based on current best evidence, with authority-based knowledge and a pathophysiological rationale derived from extrapolation of basic science knowledge. Unlike other published textbooks that overemphasize the research component in decision-making, this book aims to address the clinical reality of having to make decisions on the management of a patient with hip/knee pain, in the absence of a comprehensive scientific rationale, using other sources of knowledge. It offers an evidence-informed textbook that values equally research evidence, clinician expertise and patient preference. The book is edited by three recognised world leaders in clinical research into manual therapy and chronic pain. Their research activities are concentrated on the evidence-based management of musculoskeletal pain conditions using conservative interventions. For this book they have combined their knowledge and clinical expertise with that of 38 additional contributors, all specialists in the field The contributors include a mix of clinicians and clinician-researchers. Hip and Knee Pain Disorders is unique in bringing together manual therapies and exercise programs in a multimodal approach to the management of these pain conditions from both a clinical, but also evidence-based, perspective. It acknowledges the expanding direct access role of the physical therapy profession. The book provides an important reference source for clinicians of all professions interested in conservative management of the hip and knee regions. It will also be useful as a textbook for students at both entry and post-graduate level.

This book promotes a different approach in that the aim of training is to promote athletic development (1,2). From the perspective of sustainable athletic development, training is not limited to strength, flexibility or cardiovascular domains, but also focuses on the fundamental A,B,Cs of agility, balance, and coordination as a foundation for enhanced movement literacy (3)"--Provided by publisher.

Download or read book Read My Hips written by Wolf Schamberger and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2020-09-21 with total page 586 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “I feel twisted”, “I look crooked in the mirror”, “My problems have been going on for years”, “I have tried every kind of treatment” are commonly heard statements. Whether you have complaints or not, it’s time to look at your body alignment, given that the pelvis and spine are not properly aligned in 80% of us. Think of a car that has an alignment problem! The tires wear differently and the car may wiggle and wobble, eventually causing structural damage to the frame and steering mechanism. We are not so different. Unwanted stresses caused by malalignment can affect every part of your body. You may feel it, for example, as “low back pain”, a “bursitis”, “tight hamstrings”. This book starts by explaining how your pelvis and spine function when in alignment and what happens when things go wrong. It describes some easy ways to recognize and treat the three most common ways the pelvis goes out of alignment. Then it outlines the “malalignment syndrome” – the typical changes and complaints associated with malalignment that, unfortunately, often lead to unwarranted investigation, misdiagnosis, and inappropriate and sometimes harmful treatment. After discussing the impact on various sports, it provides a comprehensive treatment approach aimed at achieving and maintaining your alignment making use of appropriate complementary techniques and encouraging your regular participation to achieve lasting results.
