In this post, we have given the idea while assesing kinetic chain. There are some key features that you should keep in mind. Here we’ll look at the why and how we assess. Establish a baseline/starting point Create realistic expectations Discover the specific GOALS and NEEDS of each patient Create individualized exercise programs […]
Blog Proactive Physio Knowledge Episode 1: The Kinetic Chain approach to Shoulder Elevation Kinetic chain shoulder rehabilitation incorporates the kinetic link biomechanical model and proximal-to-distal motor-activation patterns. This approach focuses on movement patterns rather than isolated muscle exercises. Patterns sequentially use the leg, trunk, and scapular musculature to activate weakened shoulder musculature, gain active range […]
Blog Focus of attention is known to play an important role in motor skill learning. Instruction and feedback from a “coach” (or therapist) play an important role in directing attention of a performer. Within therapy, a number of studies have used observational methods to explore and describe communication practices. whereas if attention is focused toward […]
Blog Rehabilitation is focus on regaining range of movement, strength, proprioception and stability. PRICE should be used in order to reduce swelling and pain, to attempt full range of motion and to decrease joint effusion. © Copyright 2020 – proactivephysioknowledge (Developed by Hems & Hub Design World)
We see neck pain regularly in our routine practice. Most of the time it is associated with shoulder pain/pathology. We have patient complained of pain while looking down/up during ADL (activity of daily living). Those who spend extensive time with gadgets are more prone for neck pain. Let’s understand what exactly happens when neck pain […]
Background and objective : Patellofemoral pain syndrome is a common cause of anterior knee pain quadriceps muscle strengthening is an important part of treatment of this condition but this strengthening is often painful to perform. In this study, effects of quadriceps strengthening at low intensity with blood flow restriction to quadriceps strengthening at high intensity […]
Blog Proactive Physio Knowledge Episodes: 4 Do you include stretches in your treatment of shoulder pain? In this podcast, [mepr-show rules=”5135″ unauth=”message”] I discussed how to differentiate true capsular stiffness from muscle stiffness, what information GIRD provides, and whether sleeper stretches for shoulder pain are a useful treatment.

According to jeremy lewis theory, the acromion may not impinge tissues as previously thought, making surgery for subacromial pain unnecessary. He also suggests physical therapy and exercise as equally effective treatments for shoulder pain. Although manual therapy might only have a short-term impact and offer no change in functional outcome metrics, he makes the intriguing […]

Physical therapy continues to apply rehabilitation techniques on a regular basis. I just conducted a little poll of my readers, and they mostly concur. Most people continue to adhere to protocol: However, there has been a recent rise in criticism of these rules and individuals who adhere to them on social media. Even after graduating […]
Etiology of Patello femoral pain (PFP) is multifactorial. factors which contribute PFP are abnormal alignment of the patella – increase in patellofemoral joint stress. Excessive pronation of the foot which create compensation in lower extremity. By consideration of kinetic chain, the concept of a link between the the foot and PFP is also supported. The literature […]

At the moment, one of these trends is to focus on ‘mobility’. For the purposes of this article, let’s think of mobility as simply ‘the ability to produce a desired movement’. Obviously, some degree of mobility is important to all of us, for everything we do. The real question is, how much is enough? Let’s […]
Curl up and neck pain – Proactive Physio Knowledge
Dong-Kyu Lee and colleagues conducted a study on traditional curl- up and curl-up with neck flexion restriction. Their studies found that traditional curl-up exercise significantly increased the activity of SCM (sternocleido mastoid), whereas, curl-up with neck flexion restriction considerably reduced activation of SCM. So regular curl-up exercise will over activate the SCM and as we […]
