Anatomy of Back Muscles

  The muscles of the back can be divided into three groups – superficial, intermediate and deep: Superficial  – associated with movements of the shoulder. Intermediate  – associated with movements of the thoracic cage. Deep  – associated with movements of the vertebral column. The deep muscles develop embryologically in the back, and are thus described as  intrinsic  muscles. The superficial and intermediate muscles do not develop in the back, and are classified as  extrinsic  muscles. This article is about the anatomy of the superficial back muscles – their attachments, innervations and functions. The superficial back muscles are situated underneath the skin and superficial fascia. They originate from the vertebral column and attach to the bones of the shoulder – the clavicle, scapula and humerus. All these muscles are therefore associated with movements of the upper limb. The muscles in this group are the trapezius, latissimus dorsi, levator scapulae and the rhomboids. The trapezius

Lumber spondylosis and Physiotherapy

Physiotherapy can be an essential part of managing lumbar spondylosis, a degenerative condition that affects the lower spine. Also known as lumbar osteoarthritis or degenerative disc disease, lumbar spondylosis involves the breakdown of the intervertebral discs and the development of bone spurs in the lumbar (lower) region of the spine. Physiotherapy plays a crucial role in the conservative treatment of lumbar spondylosis, aiming to alleviate pain, improve mobility, and enhance the overall quality of life. Here are some ways in which physiotherapy can be beneficial: 1. Pain management: Physiotherapists can use various techniques like heat or ice therapy, ultrasound, electrical stimulation, and TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) to reduce pain and inflammation in the affected area. 2. Exercise prescription: A tailored exercise program is crucial for improving the strength, flexibility, and stability of the muscles that support the lumbar spine. Strengthening the core mus

FRENKEL EXERCISES

Frenkel Exercises are a series of motions of increasing difficulty performed by ataxic patients to facilitate the restoration of coordination.  Frenkel's exercises are used to bring back the rhythmic, smooth and coordinated movements. Dr. H S Frenkel was a physician from Switzerland who aimed at establishing voluntary control of movement by the use of any part of the sensory mechanism which remained intact, notably sight, sound and touch, to compensate for the loss of kinaesthetic sensation.  Frenkel Exercises were originally developed in 1889 to treat patients of tabes dorsalis and problems of sensory ataxia owing to loss of proprioception. These exercises have been applied in the treatment of individuals with ataxia, in particular cerebellar ataxia. The exercises are performed in supine, sitting, standing and walking. Each activity is performed slowly with the patient using vision to carefully guide correct movement. These exercises require a high degree of me
