The Influence of Pelvic Clock lesson from the Feldenkrais Method® on the Proprioception and the Range of Pelvic Movement
Pehalová, Barbora ; Vařeková, Jitka (advisor) ; Šifta, Petr (referee)
Title: The Influence of Pelvic Clock lesson from the Feldenkrais Method® on the Proprioception and the Range of Pelvic Movement Objectives: The aim of this diploma thesis is to investigate the influence of Feldenkrais method (FM) on the lumbar spine and pelvic movement functions. Specifically, changes in the ability of pelvis reposition, changes in stabilize pelvic movements and postural changes were tested after completing one FM lesson Pelvic Clock. Method: It is theoretical empirical work where quantitative research with elements of controlled study was used. For the study, 30 probands aged 20 to 30 years were selected and divided into two groups. Both groups underwent a pelvic reposition test twice. The second measurement took place 40 minutes after the end of the previous measurement. At this time interval, 15 probands in the experimental group underwent an intervention in the form of the Pelvic Clock lesson of the Feldenkrais Method. The control group of 15 probands in this time period focused on physically undemanding activities, i.e. sitting, walking, etc. The following parameters were determined for all probands: accuracy of pelvic reposition, range of pelvis movement, pelvic stabilization movements, and pelvic tilt change. The results are processed into graphs and statistically evaluated....

Remodeling cranial orthoses during child growth
Pehalová, Barbora ; Černý, Pavel (advisor) ; Drnková, Jana (referee)
Title: Remodeling cranial orthoses during child growth Objectives: The main aim of this work is to give a comprehensive overview of the deformities of the newborn skull, especially of the positional plagiocephaly, and their therapeutic solution with a focus on helmet therapy. Method: I used the method of qualitative data collection from literature, published professional articles and journals. I subsequently consulted with the supervisor Ing. Pavel Černý, Ph.D Result: The number of children with positional plagiocephaly has increased significantly since 1992 as a result of the "Back to Sleep" campaign of the American Pediatric Association (AAP), which recommends that babies should be placed in their supine sleep position in an effort to reduce the incidence of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS). The incidence of SIDS has decreased, but the prevalence of plagiocephaly has increased. There are two non- invasive methods to treat this deformity: positioning therapy and helmet therapy. Helmet therapy is undoubtedly a very important part of the treatment of head deformities. It is an effective non-invasive method with minimal risks and complications. Keywords: cranial orthosis, deformities, positional plagiocephaly, therapy, diagnosis, non- invasive method
