2
Q
What are the ABC’s of proprioception?
A
Agility
Balance
Coordination
3
Q
Proprioception
A
Bodies ability to transmit position sense.
4
Q
What does proprioception allow us to do?
A
- Interpret info
- Respond to environment
- Trained with active motion and reps
- Ability to respond athletically.
5
Q
Proprioception role
A
- Key in dexterity, mastery, proficiency.
- Neurosensory role
- Corrects performance
6
Q
Kinesthesia
A
- Sensation of limb movements and positions
a. Awareness of motion and position.
b. Trained by passive motion/muscle memory
7
Q
Somatic Receptors (Sensory receptors)
A
- Exteroceptors: External environment
- Interoreceptors: Internal environment
- Proprioceptors: Information of body in space.
8
Q
Mechanoreceptors
A
- Input received by the skin, muscles, and tendon that facilitate a motor response.
- Respond to vibration, pressure, tension
ex. Golgi tendon organs and muscle spindles.
9
Q
Neurophysiology of proprioception
A
- Cutaneous receptors
- Afferent receptors
- Skin
- Provides basic info on skin and stretch
10
Q
Golgi tendon organ
A
- Tension and contraction and responses relaxation of muscle
11
Q
Muscle Spindle
A
- Responds to stretch and responds by contraction of muscle.
12
Q
Joint receptors
A
- Activate when muscles move into end ranges of motion.
- Act more as motion limit detectors
- Help with basic mid range motion in the fingers
13
Q
Ligaments
A
- Ligament stretch inhibit agonist muscle
14
Q
CNS
A
- Responds to group of receptors.
- Must receive input from all sensory, motor, and joint receptors to work together affectively.
15
Q
Neurophysiology
A
- Afferent nerves send message to CNS
- CNS interprets stimuli and initiates limb response
