SM system and other diagnosis

Flat foot, hallux valgus

A flat foot and a bent toe (hallux valgus) are a manifestation of a impaired spiral stabilization of the lower limb . All three spirals connect the movement of the arm with the oblique abdominal muscles. It also follows the activity of the gluteal muscle (m. Gluteus maximus), which stretches the femoral ligament (fascia lata). The fascia lata tones the anterior tibial muscle (tibialis anteriror muscle), which raises the arch of the foot. When the arch is raised, the toe extractor (abductor hallucis) engages and returns the toe to a balanced position. The arch of the foot is formed during optimally coordinated and stabilized walking during the support on one lower limb. The arch of the foot is created by the movement of the arms while walking, which activates the spiral stabilization. So the arch of the foot is a whole-body function, not a local one. That's why we need to practice and treat it by comprehensively restoring spiral stabilization and not only locally. Without the arch of the foot, walking will be unstable.
 

Exercise in pregnancy

Exercise during pregnancy strengthens the abdominal, buttock and pelvic floor muscles, relaxes and stretches the back, prevents tension in the pear-shaped muscle (m. Piriformis). The child's development will be supported by the natural mobilization of the abdomen and will not be disturbed in the back. Exercise is the prevention of back pain, premature opening of the gate, facilitates and speeds up childbirth. It is a way to the health of mother and child.

SM system – prolapse of the intervertebral disc

An intervertebral disc herniation is a rupture of the posterior part of the anulus fibrosus, which has undergone long-term degeneration. A thin mass of nucleus pulposus escapes through the crack, which never returns to the plate. However, it can be practically resorbed in about one year. However, a suitable movement program is necessary for the resorption and remodeling of the new space. Movement has a formative effect on structures.

The lumbar disc herniation can be in different segments: L5 / S1 50%, L4 / L5 45%, L3 / L4 5%, other segments rarely. However, the cause is always the same - spiral muscle chain failure during movement (the abdominal muscles are the most important part of the chain). The consequence of a spinal chain failure is the persistence of vertical stabilization (tension of the erector spinae muscle, illiopsoas muscle, quadratus lumborum muscle) during movement. We focus on practicing spiral stabilization, which will relax the sphincter and create a force that will stretch the damaged disc upwards.

The strategy for the treatment of disc herniation is to increase the entire disc and especially its posterior part. This optimal position must be maintained during the healing of the crack in the annulus fibrosus. After the crack has healed by buoyancy, the disc will increase by absorbing fluids from the environment with regular activation of spiral stabilization during exercise and walking. The quality of the scar will also depend on movement. An elastic firm scar is formed only when moving.

SMS plate prolapse treatment strategy: The diagnosis is made by a physician and indicates appropriate treatment.

The exercise program is created and performed by a therapist who has both theoretical and practical experience with SMS methodology. The exercise program must be constantly modified according to the current situation - control examinations are necessary. The treatment is significantly accelerated by the removal of muscle tension and shortening by soft tissue techniques, which are also supplemented by the therapist. After managing the acute phase of the disease, we must tighten the exercise program until the patient is in full condition to perform daily activities, occupations or sports activities. This is done using a follow-up exercise program after rehabilitation treatment.

Acute pain phase (often accompanied by pain and loss of sensation and movement):

• Reduce plate pressure and prevent prolapse enlargement
• Raise your plate
• Pull the plate upwards
• Enable healing of the disc in an elevated position
• Extend the plate to create suction pressure toward the plate
• Open the foramen, increase its space and reduce the pressure towards the nerve root

Subacute phase with pain in extreme positions (usually already a significant improvement in extinctions and less pain)

• Healing of the disc rupture by the scar
• Strengthen the scar while releasing the scar
• Resorption of the prolapse (sequestration)
• Modeling the new foramin and spinal canal space

Return to full health, daily activities and sports:

• Prevent nerve root contraction with a rigid scar
• Prevention of the development of degenerative changes in the vertebral body and intervertebral joints, ie prevention of the formation of a narrow spinal canal
• Prevention of degenerative spondyolysis (sliding of the vertebra forward or backward)

We consider disc surgery to be necessary only where it has not been possible to manage the extinction symptomatology within 6 months through rehabilitation. But even in this case, we recommend follow-up care in the preventive program, which prevents postoperative problems (eg: rigidity of scars, instability of the reduced disc). The operation will not solve the problem that preceded the procedure (spine overload, incorrect posture, muscle imbalance). In our follow-up care, we restore the spiral stabilization of the spine and thus induce the regenerative ability of the organism.

SM system in sports

Regeneration and compensation play a very important role in the sports training of every athlete. Not only to prevent injuries, but also to increase athletic performance. The athlete repeats the same movement over and over during training, with much greater force, force and speed than a person during normal movement. For this reason, the negative effects of incorrect movement in athletes multiply and the risk of injury increases. By constantly repeating the movement, the athlete creates movement patterns, both right and wrong. Bad movement patterns can be changed by practicing correct movement.

Athlete Compensation Training

Within the compensatory training of athletes, it is mainly a matter of eliminating bad movement habits, learning and subsequent automation of correct movement patterns. This training is purely individual due to the variety of movement in sports. Within one-sided loading sports (tennis, golf, hockey, floorball, etc.) it is not only a matter of practicing the correct movement patterns, but also of compensating for muscle imbalances that arise during a one-sided load.

When trying to eliminate the negative impact of a given sport, the regularity of compensatory exercises is important. It is necessary to exercise every day for at least 20 minutes a day, otherwise negative influences will prevail and the body will automate them.

Aspects of a successful compensatory exercise:

• Regularity (at least 20 minutes each day)
• Individually compiled exercise plan for the athlete
• Quality of execution of individual exercises
• Achieve ideal muscle ranges to prevent injury
• Achieving pelvic, torso and head stabilization (HSS involvement)

Kinesiotaping

Kinesiotaping is a therapeutic method that uses kinesiotap (tape)

There is a positive effect on the blood, lymphatic and somatosensory systems. It is a tape made on the basis of cotton with an admixture of elastane. The tape adheres to the skin with a natural resin adhesive. The glued kinesiotape acts by pulling on the muscle and subcutaneous tissue, it also evokes the reflex of nerve fibers and lymphatic pathways. Kinesiotape can alleviate long-lasting pain and provide relief during both acute and chronic musculoskeletal disorders . Relaxes overloaded muscles and soft tissues. The advantage of kinesiotap is that it does not restrict a person's movement during sports or other activities in any way.

Contraindications

• Skin rashes, eczema, psoriasis
• feverish conditions
• Acute thrombosis
• open wounds
• occasional allergies to glue composition
• Rising

Indications

• Accidental conditions
• Tennis, golf elbow
• Scoliosis and other deformities of the spine
• Orthopedic problems (frozen shoulder)
• Muscle, tendon or tendon pain

Cupping

This is an old method of alternative medicine used for various types of diseases and problems of the musculoskeletal system . skin. Flasks are applied to certain places (most often on the back) - reflex points, or used as an adjunct therapy to massages. The resulting subcutaneous hematomas (bruises) are desirable and disappear within a few days. The human body tries to remove the hematomas and thus the lymphatic system is accelerated and pollutants are washed away from the body.

Contraindications

• varicose veins
• Open wounds and purulent infections
• Elevated body temperature (fever)
• Skin diseases and fresh scar tissue
• All types of cancer
• heart disease

Indications

• TRPS ( pain triggers), muscle spasms
• Accidental conditions
• Swelling (DNA)
• Relieve muscle spasms

Cupping effect

• Stimulates the lymphatic and blood systems, which increases blood flow, which has the effect of increasing body temperature - there is better blood flow to the muscles
• Stimulation of internal organs, acceleration of intestinal peristalsis, improves digestion and nutrient absorption.
• Stimulation of nerve endings
