Title: Influencing muscle imbalances in persons with transverse spinal cord injury using the spiral stabilization method Objectives: The main aim of this thesis was to investigate whether muscle imbalances in people with spinal cord lesions can be influenced by practicing the spiral stabilization method. Methods: Six wheelchair floorball players (5 male and 1 female), aged 36-52 years, with spinal cord lesions at the Th4-11 level (5 complete, 1 incomplete), 5 of whom had no previous experience with the spiral stabilization method, participated in the study. During the 3-month intervention, it was investigated whether the spiral stabilization method could be used to influence muscle imbalances in subjects with ML. Kinesiological assessment of muscle imbalances by faceting and palpation, sitting assessment using the Xsensor pressure mapping system, training diary and subjective assessment of the intervention by probands were used as data collection methods. All probands were provided with a video guide to follow during the study. Interest in practicing this method after the research was also surveyed. Results: Based on the results of the research, it can be said that the training of the spiral stabilization method had a positive effect on the influence of muscle imbalances and improvement of sitting...
