Fascial Manipulation Method Is Effective in the Treatment of Myofascial Pain, but the Treatment Protocol Matters: A Randomised Control Trial-Preliminary Report.

There are many therapeutic methods targeting fascia. However, the only method whose basic assumption is to eliminate the densification of fascia is Fascial Manipulation. To evaluate the effectiveness of various Fascial Manipulation (FM) protocols in reducing myofascial pain.

The influence of rotational movement exercise on the abdominal muscle thickness and trunk mobility - Randomized control trial.

Background: Trunk rotations are important functional movements which form the foundations of human motion pattern, especially in the functions of walking and running. They prevent the functional impairments and structural lesions resulting from axial overloading in static positions such as sitting.

Objectives: The aim of the study was to assess the influence of rotational movement training exercises on the abdominal muscle thickness and spinal mobility range.

Past physical activity and its influence on female functioning during perimenopause.

Objectives: The objective of the study was to assess correlations between practising sports at an elite level at a young age, and the current physical activity level, selected sociometric features and the severity of menopausal symptoms in women during perimenopause, which will contribute to the knowledge about undertaking sports activity.

Material And Methods: The study involved a total of 334 females aged 45-65. They were purposefully assigned to both a study and control group.

Assessment of the influence of global and local exercises on core stabilization mechanisms: randomized controlled trial.

Background: Over the last few years, various concepts of applying core stabilization mechanisms in the formation of human motor function have come to existence. The objective of the research was to assess the influence of two types of core stability training on deep abdominal muscle thickness and on global trunk mobility.

Methods: The study involved 108 individuals divided into 3 groups: LT (local training), performing the stability training based on locally isolated work of the transversus abdominis muscle; GT (global training), performing the training based on global movement patterns; and CG (control group), who did not undergo the training.
