Impact of food and lower leg massage on postural stability
Novák, Matěj ; Nováková, Pavlína (advisor) ; Hošková, Blanka (referee)
Title: Impact of foot and lower limb massage postural stability Objectives: Find out what impact does sport massage of foot and lower limb has on postural stability. Methods: The research was realized in the form of a Crossover design experiment and involved 8 subjects. It was a one-group experiment where all participants were part of both the experimental and control groups. The measurement results were based on comparing the input and outcome measurements, with foot and calf massage being performed on the experimental group of subjects, while the control group was passively resting by lying on their backs. A pressure plate called Footscan was used to obtain the results in the Laboratory of Sports Motorics at the Faculty of Physical Education and Sport, Charles University. Results: In the overall comparison of the results of all measured stances it is possible to see that in the first four stances, without the foam pad, experimental group achieved positive results even by ten percent. Only the results of narrow standing with eyes open (USOO) were negative. There was a deterioration of 21% in delta X and 15% in delta Y. However, these results cannot be considered positive since the control group achieved similar results with the same positive or negative tendencies in almost all evaluated...
The effect of sports massage on changes of muscle contraction after applied load
Kopica, Vladimír ; Nováková, Pavlína (advisor) ; Hošková, Blanka (referee)
Title: The effect of sports massage on changes of muscle contraction after applied load Objectives: The aim of this work was to find out the scale of effect of sports massage on speed of muscle contraction of musculus vastus medialis and musculus vastus lateralis after previous exercise in form of squats and forward lunges. Methods: The research was realized in a form of Crossover design experiment and 7 probands took part in the research. Results were obtained by measuring muscle contraction velocity with tensiomyography method in the lab in department of physiology and biochemistry UK FTVS. We measured height and weight of every proband, after that they were randomly assigned either to control group or experimental group. In the control group we measured the speed of muscle contraction, after that the proband went through exercise in form of squats and forward lunges under certified supervision, then they had 5 minutes of passive rest and after the muscle contraction was measured again. The experimental group had a sports massage instead of 5 minutes rest. Results: The average muscle contraction velocity of musculus vastus lateralis of the control group in the second measurement was 25,47 ± 4,22 ms and the average muscle contraction velocity of the experimental group in the second measurement was...
Impact on extra league floorball players of selected regeneration methods after training in summer preparation
Polívková, Barbora ; Vařeková, Jitka (advisor) ; Hošková, Blanka (referee)
Title: Impact on extra league floorball players of selected regeneration methods after training in summer preparation. Objective: The goal of the bachelor thesis is to study and compare the regeneration methods of floorball players. To study the effect of sports massage, cold water regeneration and passive regeneration (relaxatin) on the lower back limb muscular pain (DOMS), the subjective perception of method and influence on muscle contraction. Methods: A quantitative research in the form of quasi-experiment was followed by the effect of different regeneration methods on a set of 15 extralig floorball players. As a method of data collection, I used a questionnaire based on subjective assessment, as a visual analogue scale. He was dealt with proband before the very beginning of the test. I was also using the sit and reach test, which assessed shortening or extensions of the lower limb muscles. For my research, I chose the target group of 15 extra league players of the Ivanti Tigers floorball team aged 18-30. Results: From the values I obtained from the questionnaire, it is cleaar that 67% of the respondents are the most pleasant sport massage. Fourteen proband, that it, 93,3% of them said that after 48 hours, the pain ranged between 0 and 1, which shows a high rate of pain relief. The result of...
Impact of nape massage on postural stability
Novák, Matěj ; Nováková, Pavlína (advisor) ; Hošková, Blanka (referee)
Title: Impact of nape massage on postural stability Objectives: The aim of this work is to find out if sport nape massage has an effect on postural stability. Methods: The research was realized in form of quaziexperiment which was attended by 5 probands. Result of the measurement is consist of comparing the difference of postural stability before and after the nape massage. The results were obtained by Footscan pressure platform in Laboratory of sports motor skills at UK FTVS. At first we measured proband's weight and height, after that we measured postural stability. Then we performed nape massage on proband. And after the massage we measured again the postural stability. Results: In the overall summary of the results of all measured stands, there was an improvement after massage in the parameter TTW (total travelled way) by 6,12 %. This value indicates a slight improvement, but statistically nothing significant happened. The results of lower limbs load ratio were also positive, when after applying nape massage there was improvement by 35,5 %. This means that in our research with five probands, nape massage had a positive effect on level of static postural stability. Keywords: balance, footscan, sport massage, nape area
Sports massage as one of the posssible therapy methods used in the various sports sectors
Stránská, Veronika ; Pokorný, Ladislav (advisor) ; Pádivý, Martin (referee)
The bachelor thesis deals with using of sports massage as part of regeneration after, before and during sports workout. The sports massage is divided generally into a pre - sports workout, (for the reason of a group's muscles warming up used specifically for the special sports sector (injury prevention), immediately after sports load ( due to an accumulated lactic acid and other waste chemicals wash out) and within 24 - hours duration in the frame of body regeneration. The aim of the thesis is to compare and map the usage of sports massage in various sports sectors. The icey hockey, football, handball, cheerleading, athletics and floorball are determined as sports sectors for regeneration sports club level comparison. The research is based by an author on 5 - predefined hypothesis, which, used by the methods of questionnare research (data are processed by members of icey hockey, football, handball, cheerleading, athletics and floorball clubs) and via testing on the determined and comparable sample in the frame of sport gymnastics, the author verifies in the wrapping up. The research methods used are comparisons and data analysis based on a questionnaire and interview survey. The author was motivated by the need to analyze the real level of regenerative background of top sports in selected sports...
Change of muscle contraction rate before and after the application of sports massage
Kopica, Vladimír ; Nováková, Pavlína (advisor) ; Malá, Michaela (referee)
Title: Change of muscle contraction rate before and after the application of sports massage Objectives: The aim of this work is to find out if sports massage of leg effects the muscle contraction rate of musculus vastus medialis and musculus vastus lateralis. Part of that aim is to compare differences of muscle contraction rate between men and women. Methods: The research was realized in a form of quaziexperiment and 8 probands took part in the research. Results were obtained from the TMG machine in the lab in department of physiology and biochemistry UK FTVS. First of all we measured proband's height and weight, after that we measured muscle contraction of musculus vastus medialis and musculus vastus lateralis on left leg. After the first measurement the proband had a sports massage of left leg. After the massage was the second measurement of muscle contraction of musculus vastus medialis and musculus vastus lateralis. Results: The muscle contraction rate of musculus vastus medialis of all probands before massage was 24,11 ± 1,87 ms and 24,35 ± 1,96 ms after massage, the muscle contraction rate of men before massage was 25,11 ± 1,5 ms and 25,59 ± 1,47 ms after massage, the muscle contraction rate of women before massage was 23,11 ± 1,65 and 23,1 ± 1,55 ms after massage. The muscle contraction rate...
