Test Diagnosis of Ischial Bursitis

Test Diagnosis of Ischial Bursitis/Ischial bursitis also is known as ischiogluteal bursitis or weaver’s bottom is a condition where the bursa that lies between the ischial tuberosity and the gluteus maximus muscle becomes inflamed. This bursa is present physiologically in order to reduce the amount of frictional force generated between the gluteal muscle and the… Continue reading Test Diagnosis of Ischial Bursitis

Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation

Proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) is common practice for increasing range of motion, though little research has been done to evaluate theories behind it. The purpose of this study was to review possible mechanisms, proposed theories, and physiological changes that occur due to proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation techniques. Four theoretical mechanisms were identified: autogenic inhibition, reciprocal inhibition,… Continue reading Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation

TENS; Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation

TENS; Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation/ is an inexpensive nonpharmacological intervention used in the treatment of acute and chronic pain conditions. These small battery-powered devices deliver alternating current via cutaneous electrodes positioned near the painful area. The parameters of pulse frequency and pulse intensity are adjustable and linked to TENS efficacy. This article will provide a… Continue reading TENS; Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation
