How effective is scapular repositioning in enhancing cervical range of motion in torticollis patients?

In 2013, the preliminary study conducted by Desai, et. al., aimed to investigate the immediate effects of a scapular repositioning technique on pain and pressure pain threshold (PPT) in patients with acute spasmodic torticollis. The study focused on understanding how this technique could alleviate symptoms associated with this condition. A randomized, single-blind pilot study was conducted with 23 individuals aged 20-40 years, all clinically diagnosed … Continue reading How effective is scapular repositioning in enhancing cervical range of motion in torticollis patients?

Is Talus mobilization effective for increasing ankle dorsiflexion ROM?

In 2013, the study conducted by Teixeira, et. al., aimed to investigate the immediate effects of a single anteroposterior mobilization of the talus on active dorsiflexion range of motion (ROM) in individuals with various orthopedic foot and ankle injuries. Thirty participants, both male and female, aged between 18 and 50 years with unilateral orthopedic foot and ankle dysfunction were included in the study. Each participant’s … Continue reading Is Talus mobilization effective for increasing ankle dorsiflexion ROM?

What are the benefits of supervised exercise on bone density in postmenopausal women?

A recent randomized controlled trial led by researchers Hande Basat, Sina Esmaeilzadeh, and Nurten Eskiyurt has demonstrated promising benefits of exercise on bone health and quality of life in postmenopausal women. The study, spanning six months, investigated the impact of strengthening and high-impact exercises on bone mineral density (BMD), bone turnover markers, and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in postmenopausal women with osteopenia. The study … Continue reading What are the benefits of supervised exercise on bone density in postmenopausal women?
