DEFINITION OF AQUATIC EXERCISE:  Aquatic exercise  refers to the use of water (in multi-depth immersion pools or tanks) that facilitates the application of established therapeutic interventions, including stretching, strengthening, joint mobilization, balance and gait training, and endurance training.  AQUATIC EXERCISE By Anand Vaghasiya [ Final Year BPT] DEFINITION OF AQUATIC EXERCISE  Aquatic exercise refers to the use of water (in multidepth immersion pools or tanks) that facilitates the application of established therapeutic interventions, including stretching, strengthening, joint mobilization, balance and gait training, and endurance training. The unique properties of the aquatic environment provide clinicians with treatment options that may otherwise be difficult or impossible to implement on land.  Using buoyant devices and varied depths of immersion the practitioner has flexibility in positioning the patient (supine, seated, kneeling, pro

What Is Posture? Posture is the attitude assumed by the body either with support during muscular inactivity, or by means of coordinated action of many muscles working to maintain stability. WHAT IS  INACTIVE POSTURE? These are attitudes adopted for resting or sleeping, and they are most suitable for this purpose when all the essential muscular activity required to maintain life is reduced to a minimum. The posture used for training and general relaxation fulfills these conditions. ACTIVE POSTURE  the integrated action of many muscles is required to maintain active postures, which may be static or dynamic.  1. STATIC POSTURE  2. DYNAMIC POSTURE STATIC POSTURE   a constant pattern of posture is maintained by the interaction of groups of muscles which work more or less statically to stabilize the joints, and in opposition to gravity or other forces.  DYNAMIC POSTURE   For the movement, the pattern of the posture is constantly modified and adjusted

Purpose of Test: To assess for anterior instability of the glenohumeral joint capsule. Test Position : Supine Procedure: The examiner flexes the patient’s elbow to 90 degrees and abducts their shoulder to 90 degrees. The examiner then slowly externally rotates the patient’s shoulder. The test is considered positive if the patient demonstrates apprehension during shoulder external rotation. Apprehension-Relocation method : The examiner flexes the patient’s elbow to 90 degrees and abducts their shoulder to 90 degrees. The examiner then slowly externally rotates the patient’s shoulder. If the patient experiences apprehension during external rotation, the examiners places a firm hand over the anterior shoulder, increasing shoulder stability. The examiner again applies an external rotation force to the shoulder. If the patient has apprehension during the first external rotation and no apprehension during the second external rotation, it is considered a positive test. Imp

                              Virtual reality (VR) is an interactive computer generated experience which takes place within a simulated environment which incorporates mainly auditory, visual as well as haptic types of sensory feedback.                                Stroke is a condition which leads to cell death due to poor blood flow to the brain. It is one of the leading causes of death and disability. Almost 55 and 75% of stroke survivors fail to regain functional use of their impaired upper limb. A major goal of physiotherapeutic treatment is to regain the functional movement. Various exercises are being used since long.                               TASK-SPECIFIC and TASK ORIENTED activities help in enhancing motor recovery during the acute phase of stroke. Using computer technology which provides an artificial environment through which individuals with stroke can have better sensory feedback for activities which they might encounter during real life and thus b

                                  Taking a detailed patient history is important. Listen carefully to the patient’s past medical history and history of presenting condition. The narrative given by the patient contains much of the information needed to rule out red flags and guide the shoulder examination.                                   The patient may report pain local to the involved shoulder. The symptoms may extend toward the scapula, axilla, anterior chest, along with the clavicle, or down the humerus. When taking the patients history it is also important to ask if they have pain or symptoms in other regions such as their cervical or thoracic spine, or elbow. The patient may also report difficulty with overhead activities, lifting objects, activities of daily living, sports or recreational activities.& There are several presentations that may differ depending on the suspected pathology. { Click the Test to Read in Detail} A.For anterior shoulder (glenohumeral) in

Definition/Description                                                             If the bottom of your foot hurts when you walk, or kind of heel pain, you may have Plantar fasciitis. Plantar fasciitis may be referred to as plantar fasciosis, plantar heel pain, plantar fascial fibramatosis, among others. Because many cases diagnosed as “plantar fasciitis” are not inflammatory conditions, this condition may be best referred to as "plantar fasciosis." This is confirmed through histological analysis which demonstrates plantar fascia fibrosis, collagen cell death, vascular hyperplasia, random and disorganized collagen, and avascular zones.                                There are many different sources of pain in the plantar heel beside the plantar fascia, and therefore the term "Plantar Heel Pain" serves best to include a broader perspective when discussing this and related pathology. Anatomy                                The plantar fascia is comprised
