Cervical Functionality and Posture (CERFUPOS)

BACKGROUND: Musculoskeletal alterations of the cervical region constitute clinical situations with a high prevalence that may be related to posture mismatches. Static alterations not linked to a defined pathological picture may come from a sensory-motor disorder whose main manifestations are increased muscle tone and stiffness. Postural reconstruction (RP). The RP method has as main objective the rebalancing of the muscular tone from 1) the sensorimotor recovery and 2) the re-functionalization of the subcortical toninergic centers. The aim of this study is to determine the effect of this physiotherapeutic approach on the functionality and posture of the cervical region. OBJECTIVES: 1) to know the effect of PR on cervical function in subjects with impaired cervical motor function; and 2) to know the effect of PR on static in subjects with impaired cervical motor function. PARTICIPANTS \& METHODS: quasi-experimental design, with only one intervention group (N=40). Data records before and after the 1st intervention, before the 2nd, 4th and 6th weekly treatment sessions, at 15 days and a month and at 3 months after the end of treatment. INTERVENTION: The intervention will consist of the application of a RP maneuver applied to both lower limbs to obtain improvements in the cranio-cervical region. OUTCOMES: The outcome variables will collect information on active joint movement in the cervical region, anatomical references representative of body statics, cervical repositioning, cervical disability, pain and time to extinction of the effect.
