Modern Approaches in the Physical Rehabilitation of Cervical Spine

Abstract

In this work the variety of methods and techniques of physical rehabilitation of cervical spine with degenerative processes, from classical to eclectic approaches, have been approached and analyzed. On the basis of this program was the principle of combining techniques with neurophysiological effect with postural correction and pain relief, depending on the manifestation of psycho-physical qualities. The kinetic program has been constituted by 17 sessions, each lasting from 60 to 80 minutes depending on the restoring stage. The efficiency of the program was tested with the Myo Test device on two lots of subjects of 12 people, the witness lot (healthy people) and the experimental lot (people with algic cervical syndrome). There has been registered a dynamic increase of the psycho-physical quality indices for both groups, but a significant statistical difference was registered for mobility t = 1.37, p> 0.05; stability t = 1.27, p> 0.05 and general physical condition t = 6.83, p> 0.01; in the experimental lot the improvement being more obvious.
