Sažetak
Introduction Cervicobrachial syndrome is an increasingly occurring problem affecting younger and younger generation of people, particularly working population. It is also as increasing burden for the health care system because its treatment is long- lasting, slow and expensive. It is for this reason that we decided to explore how Body tehnique can be used as a kinesitherapy method in treating this syndrome, with the additional positive impact on the posture. H1: Body Tehnique exercise have an impact on lowering of the pain, on increasing the mobility of the neck and shoulders, as well as on increasing the patient’s overall functionality. Method Our research focused on monitoring one patient during the period of six months, who was exercising three times per week per 45 minutes. During the 6 months of individual BODY TEHNIQUE exercises, the patient was measured every three weeks, using goniometron and centimetre tape to measure the volume of the movements in neck and shoulders. We measured the abduction, anteflexie and interior rotation, which was causing the most problems, lateroflexie and neck rotation. We used Visual Analog scale for pain (VAS) in order to track the shoulder pain, a questioner for the evaluation of the disabilities of the arm, shoulder and hand, (DASH), lateral scapular slide test or Kibler's test (LLST). Every three weeks we conducted five mobility tests described in the work. Results and Discussion The results show a significant improvement in range of motion of the cervical spine and shoulder pain reduction through movement and at rest, increase mobility in all tests specific to body technique, the increased stability of the blades and the full functionality of the arms and shoulders in everyday activities. Conclusion Six months into the Body Tehnique exercises, movement range in neck spine and shoulders was significantly increased. The pain was lowered, in the state of inactivity and movement, muscular strength was increased, mobility was increased according to all the tests distinctive of body technique, shoulder stability was increased, arm and shoulder functionality was improved in all daily activities.
