Investigation of Muscle Imbalance
Original language description
Sedentary occupation and lack of exercise lead to the gradual muscle wasting and thus shortening of the whole body and also the development of muscle imbalance which involves weakening of muscles, shortening of muscles and impaired spine statics and dynamics in a longterm sitting position. Prevention of muscle imbalance should be aimed at eliminating their causes. Myotonometric parameters were measured using MyotonPro device before and after a physiotherapeutic exercise aimed at strengthening and stretching the deep muscular system. Eight females (age: 56.9±8.4 years) volunteered to participate in this study. Six muscles were selected for measurement on both sides of the body and symmetry index was calculated. Overall, symmetry improved in 119 cases out of 240. In 55 cases the right-left symmetry changed to left-right or vice versa. A graphical user interface has been designed for better understanding and visualization of results. The physiotherapist can choose an individual proband and compare the results before and after exercise. In the next exercise it can focus on individual muscle parts where the symmetry was not achieved.
