A junction between 2 or more bones/cartilages is called a JOINT. Joint permits mobility and stability. A human skeletal has approximately more than 200 bones that are connected by joints. Also, joints help to form cavities like cranial, thoracic, abdominal & pelvic cavities. There are more joints in the child than in an adult because with age some bones fuse. CLASSIFICATION OF JOINTS: 1] STRUCTURAL CLASSIFICATION 1.Fibrous Joints -The bones are joined by fibrous tissue and these are mostly immovable or slightly movable joints. 3 Subtypes:- a) Sutures -They are present only in the “skull”. In this type, bones are connected by connective tissue called a sutural ligament. Fusion of bony components occurs later in life leading to the formation of bony union. In infants, there is an anatomical feature in the skull comprising soft membranous gaps called “FONTANELLE”. Eg: Suture between frontal & parietal bone, temporoparietal suture b) Syndesmosis In this type, bones are connected di

Massage's therapeutic value stems from its numerous and synergistic physiological effects. The effect of body massage is highly dependent on technique. Massage, whether manual or mechanical, applies pressure to and mechanically stimulates the various tissues that are approached during the application of a technique. It refers to the amount, duration, and direction of force applied during the massage. Massage's physiological effects can be divided into the following categories:  Effects on the circulatory system   Effects on blood  Effects on the exchange of nutritive elements  Effects

Therapeutic massage has a lot of benefits including Physiological and Anatomical. Generally, the application of any massage stroke involves six elements or considerations, which are depth, speed, rhythm, duration, direction, and frequency. All aspects are included in Principles of Giving Therapeutic massage. Principles of Applying Therapeutic massage Beginning massage therapists will have to consciously work at incorporating these considerations into their massage. With practice and experience, however, these considerations will become second nature, and the mechanical feeling will evolve into one of fluidity.  Depth  Depth or depth of pressure is the amount of force a stroke applies to the tissue. Regardless of what implement is used (thumb, the heel of the hand, or forearm), the amount of force you apply to the tissue depends on the desired result. If the stroke is performed with the intent of spreading lubricant, the depth of pressure will be less penetrating than if the intent is t

Physiotherapists (Physical Therapists) and other clinicians often have direct contact with patients, which makes them susceptible to the transmission of infectious diseases. Physiotherapists are also often first contact practitioners, which means that they are in a position to take responsibility for the early identification of infectious disease and/or managing workload in primary care settings. Key considerations: Stay current - Ensure that you are well-read on current COVID-19 guidance. The WHO and the CDC have good evolving resources, also check with your local authority. Stay calm - Have an objective view of the crisis we are facing. People, for example, staff and patients, may look to you as a leader to provide information to help them make decisions and also provide reassurance that we can take care of them at this time of need. Minimize exposure in your setting - review infection prevention and control (IPC) guidelines, practice social distancing, implement tria

Sprengel deformity is a congenital condition that is characterized by abnormal shoulder blade development and elevation (scapula). Can a person with Sprengel's shoulders build muscles? The answer to this question is quite complicated, before that let's overcome what is  Sprengel's deformity?  It is a rare congenital skeletal abnormality (also known as high scapula or congenital high scapula) where a person has one shoulder blade that sits higher on the back than the other. When covered with clothes, severity can range considerably from being almost invisible to the shoulder being raised over 5 centimeters, with neck webbing. Treatment includes early childhood operations and physical therapy.  The risk of nerve damage when removing the omovertebral bone and when stretching the muscle tissue during shoulder relocation complicates surgical treatment in adulthood. Diagnosis is clinical, and instrumental diagnostics such as conventional radiography and CT scan can confirm it.  

Participation in regular exercise or training for six weeks, around three times a week will lead to the adaptation of body systems that are used or trained. In that type of exercise or sport, this has the effect of increasing performance and is often beneficial for general health and everyday life.  How playing different games make your muscles strong?   The Answer is When you are participating in various playing activities your entire human body systems take part in it either fully or partially. but when it comes to muscles and strength let's see what effect you will have after exercising in long run. Long term effects of exercise Cardiovascular system: Cardiac hypertrophy; increased stroke volume (SV); decrease in resting heart rate (HR); increase in maximum cardiac output (Q); capitalization at the lungs and muscles; increase in the number of red blood cells Respiratory system: Increased number of functioning alveoli; increased strength of the respiratory muscles Energy system:
