Textbook of Therapeutic Exercises by S Lakshmi Narayanan PDF Download

Book Refference: 


This book is purely helpful for beginners of exercise therapy. It is a comprehensive book that deals with teaching exercise therapy, instructs the norms of the therapy, how to stimulate fast recovery of the patients through exercise therapy though on medication. 

This book is nicely contained in 16 chapters covering all applications of therapeutic exercises. A number of color illustrations, graphics, and tables representations to impress upon the reader. 

It explains how exercise therapy is governed and controlled by the mechanism of static and dynamic force, linear, parallel, rotational, concurrent force, the center and line of gravity, the base of support, equilibrium-stable, unstable, neutral and Newton’s laws of force, inertia, acceleration and action-reaction as well as the functions of levers and pulley, elasticity, springs, kinetic and potential energy work in human body’s functional system. 

This book is an extremely beneficial reference book for physiotherapists, orthopedics, and people who face physical trauma enmasse.

What is Anatomical pulley? Example of Anatomical pulley

Understanding the Importance of Anatomical Pulleys in Physiotherapy As a physiotherapy student, it is essential to have a good understanding of the human body's anatomy and how it works. One of the essential structures in the body that plays a significant role in movement and biomechanics is the anatomical pulley. In this article, we will explore what an anatomical pulley is, its types, and its importance in physiotherapy. What is an Anatomical Pulley? A pulley is a simple mechanical machine that consists of a wheel that turns readily on the axle, usually grooved for a rope or a wire cable. In the human body, the pulley is replaced by a bone, cartilage, or ligament, and the cord is replaced by a muscle tendon. The tendon is lubricated by synovial fluid, and the surface of the tendon is covered by a thin visceral synovial membrane. The tendon is lubricated so that it may easily slide over the pulley. Classification of Anatomical Pulleys There are mainly four classes of pulleys

Electrotherapy Simplified by Basanta Kumar Nanda PDF Download

Electrotherapy Simplified  by Basanta Kumar Nanda The aim of this book is to focus on the electrotherapy simplified. Electrotherapy is one of the important aspects among the various approaches of patient management available to a physiotherapist. Electrotherapy Simplified has tried to give comprehensive knowledge on electrotherapy and actinotherapy, starting from basic electricity and magnetism to the theoretical and clinical aspects of the different modalities applied by physiotherapists.  This book consists of 19 chapters, which include an introduction, inflammation, repair, and role of physical agents, electrical fundamentals, magnetic energy, valves, transistors, and rectifiers, electrical measurement systems and distribution of electricity, electrophysiology of nerve transmission, and muscle contraction, low-frequency currents, electrodiagnosis, medium frequency currents, low-intensity laser therapy, ultraviolet radiation, and traction.  About 250 objective question answers have b

Range of Muscle work in Physiotherapy

The degree of the movement done by muscle contraction is known as the Range of muscle work. The range can be measured with the help of a goniometer. Movement is a very complex mechanism, a lot of muscles are working in a group and in synchronized pattern to draw out the perfect desirable movement. As per function we already talked about Agonist, antagonist, Synergist, and fixator muscles.
