balance and coordination exercises Flashcards
what is motor planning
the ability of a body to organize movements and know what steps to take to complete a specific task
what is motor coordination
joint operation of the cns and skeletal muscles for a purposeful movement and the direction of movement flow
what part of the body contols ataxy
cerebellum
what atxatic
neurological sign of loss of volunatry cordination of muscle movement
what are the two main qualities that should be carried out to maintain coordination
force to support the body in any given motion
ability to shift body weight to the right positions
types of coordination
fine motor
gross motor
hand eye coordination
what is the pirpose of the coordination training or exercise
to create motor and sensory memory in the brain
bilateral coordination exercises include
jumping jacks
windmill
standing cross walking
what exercise is done as a compensation for the feeling of lost movement
frenkel coordination exercise
in frenkel coordination what three features gives us the ability to coordinate in movements
focus
stability in movements
repitition
in frenkel what are the positions of the body for the coordination exercises
sitting standing
supine and walking
what ways does the body adjust itself when its in balance
posture
center of gravity
balance and coordination
when is balance occured the most
when the body is maintained in center of mass , canter of gravity and support surface
what is base of support
area defined by external boundries where the person comes in contact with the external supoort surface
what is the center of mass
represents the total body center of mass and its also the point where the body is best balanced
what is center of gravity
this is a hypothetical spatial point where the total value of biomechenical forces and moments is equlas to zero
what nerve is responsible for transmitting the informaion to the brain about our location and position to maintain condition and balance of the head
vestibulocochlearis
what are the systems responsible for the sensory organization of balance
visual system
vestibular system
somatosensorial system
what part of the visual system helps with environmental orientation . and alsp identifies environmental hazards
switch board or focal
what visual system helps the individuals head movement and postural oscillation
peripheral vison
what is proprioception
ability to percieve body parts when the body is in static motion
what is kinesthesis
ability the perceive body parts for positions during movements
what is somatosensory system
the way the body understands the movemnet . positioning and positioning of the joints in three dimensions
what is static balance
ability to maintain a stable antigravity position while maintaining the COG within the appropriate support area for rest
types of balance assesement under static balance
romberg . sharpened romberg
single leg stance
pull push and release test
balance assesment test under dynamic balance
tandem walking four squre step test
berg balance scale .. this one is under static and dynamic balance
time uo and go
balance and proprioception exercises
short sitting long sitting crawling position above knee position half knee position standing
