At the end of the lecture, the students should be able to: Discuss the theoretical basis of the sensorimotor approaches Identify the traditional sensorimotor approaches to therapeutic exercise Discuss the reconstruction of the sensorimotor approaches Differentiate and discuss the sensorimotor approaches to therapeutic exercise in terms of: › › › › Proponents Principles Techniques/procedures Components Brunnstrom’s movement therapy Neurodevelopmental approach Rood approach Proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation Reflex and Hierarchical Theory The basic unit of motor control are reflexes › Reflexes purposeful movement › Damage to the CNS results to re-emergence of and inability to control the reflexes Motor control is hierarchically arranged › CNS structures involved with movement can be grouped into HIGHER, MIDDLE, and LOWER levels › Higher centers regulate and control the middle and lower centers › Damage to the CNS results to disruption of the normal coordinated function of these levels Motor patterns are developed from fundamental patterns/reflexes which are refined and controlled as an individual matures Sensory stimulation is applied to muscles and joints normalize tone produce desired movement Sensorimotor control is developmental Movement should be purposeful Repetition of sensorimotor responses is necessary Tonic neck and labyrinthine reflexes can assist or retard the effects of sensorimotor stimulation Stimulation of specific receptors to produce response Rules on sensory input › A fast, brief stimulus produces a large synchronous movement › A fast, repetitive stimulus produces a maintained response › Slow, rhythmical, repetitive sensory input deactivates the body Muscles have different duties › Heavy work muscles: stabilizers Maintenance of posture › Light work muscles: mobilizers Skilled movement, repetitive or rhythmical patterns of distal musculature Heavy work muscles should be integrated before light work muscles Reciprocal inhibition › Aka innervation, mobility › Phasic or quick type of movement › Contraction of the agonist while antagonist relaxes › Serves a protective function Cocontraction › Aka coinnervation, stability › Tonic or static type of movement › Simultaneous contraction of the agonist and antagonist › Foundation for postural control Heavy work › Aka mobility superimposed on stability › Proximal muscles contract and move while distal segments are fixed Skill › Aka mobility and stability › Proximal segments are stabilized while distal segments move Supine withdrawal (supine flexion) Rollover to sidelying Pivot prone (prone extension) Neck cocontraction Prone on elbows Quadruped Standing Walking Facilitatory Techniques Cutaneous Thermal Proprioceptive Facilitation Facilitation Facilitation 1.

Rocking in developmental poistions Brain knows nothing of individual muscle action, rather, total movement patterns Extremity patterns of movement are rotational and diagonal in nature Normal motor development proceeds in a cephalo-caudal and proximo-distal direction Early motor behavior is dominated by reflex activity; Mature motor behavior is supported by postural reflexes All human beings have untapped movement potential Improvement in motor ability is dependent upon motor learning Frequency of stimulation and repetition of activity promotes retention of motor learning and develops strength and endurance Activities are goal-directed with techniques of facilitation, mainly proprioceptive, are utilized to hasten learning Mass movement patterns observed in most functional activities › Head, neck, trunk Flexion with rotation to the right or left Extension with rotation to the right or left › Extremities Three components Flexion/extension Abduction/adduction External/internal rotation Reference points UE: shoulder joint LE: hip joint UPPER EXTREMITY D1 pattern JOINT FLEXION EXTENSION Scapula Elevation, Abduction, Rotation Depression, Adduction, Rotation Shoulder Flexion, Adduction External rotation Extension, Abduction Internal rotation Elbow Flexion or Extension Flexion or Extension Supination Pronation Forearm Wrist and Flexion to the radial Hand side, Finger flexion and adduction, Thumb adduction Extension to the ulnar side, Finger extension and abduction, Thumb in palmar abduction UPPER EXTREMITY D2 pattern JOINT Scapula Shoulder Elbow FLEXION EXTENSION Elevation, Adduction, Rotation Flexion, Abduction External rotation Depression, Abduction, Rotation Extension, Adduction Internal rotation Flexion or Extension Flexion or Extension Pronation Forearm Supination Flexion to the ulnar side, Wrist and Extension to the radial side, Finger extension and Finger flexion and Hand Abduction, Thumb extension adduction, Thumb in opposition LOWER EXTREMITY D1 pattern JOINT Hip FLEXION Flexion Abduction External rotation EXTENSION Extension Adduction Internal rotation Knee Flexion/extension Flexion/extension Ankle and Foot Dorsiflexion Inversion Plantarflexion Eversion Extension Flexion Toe JOINT Hip LOWER EXTREMITY D2 pattern FLEXION EXTENSION Flexion Abduction Internal rotation Extension Adduction External rotation Knee Flexion/extension Flexion/extension Ankle and Foot Dorsiflexion Eversion Plantarflexion Inversion Extension Flexion Toe Combined upper extremity or lower extremity diagonal patterns › Symmetrical › Asymmetrical › Reciprocal Symmetrical › Paired extremities (either UE of LE) perform the same diagonal pattern and direction › Promotoes trunk flexion and extension Asymmetrical › Paired extremities perform opposite diagonal pattern but same direction › Facilitates trunk rotation Reciprocal › Paired extremities move in opposite diagonal pattern and direction › Promotes head, neck, and trunk stability Combined upper extremity and lower extremity movements › Ipsilateral › Contralateral › Diagonal reciprocal Ipsilateral › Extremities of the same side (UE and LE) move in the same diagonal pattern and direction Contralateral › Aka alternating reciprocal pattern › Extremities of the opposite sides move in the same diagonal pattern and direction Diagonal reciprocal › Contralateral extremities moving in the same diagonal patterns and directions while opposite contralateral extremities move in the opposite diagonal pattern and direction Manual contacts Communication/commands Stretch Traction Approximation Maximal resistance Timing Placement of the therapist’s hand on the patient Used to provide pressure and tactile stimulation to muscles › Pressure should be applied opposite to the direction of the desired motion Guide direction of movement Utilized by the patient as in “self-touching” during chopping and lifting movements effective use of volume and tone of voice can be facilitatory or inhibitory (use in moderation to not avoid adaptation) preparatory commands need to be clear and concise action commands should be accurate, short, and timed provide visual cues, demonstration of movement tailor your motivation strategies;
