Physiotherapy of functional disorders resulting from the prolonged sitting at a computer- focusing on neck pain
RYBECKÁ, Pavla
The topic of this Bachelor thesis looks at the issue of ?Physiotherapy of functional movement disorder originating from sitting in front of a computer for long periods ? aimed at pain in the cervical spine?. Many people with long-term sitting jobs often complain about pain in the cervical spine. The theoretical part focuses especially on ergonomics while sitting and the proper poise or postures of sitting. The second part of the aforesaid theoretical part describes the cervical spine anatomy, as well as causes of the origin of pain in the cervical spine and its symptoms. Finally, the theoretical part introduces various possibilities for therapy dealing with functional movement disorder of the cervical spine. The aim of the thesis is to specify the functional disorder of the limbs movement system, appoint and implement an individual plan and assess the resulting effect of therapy. Qualitative research focused on data collection was used as the main method by using different practices, such as direct anamnesis, input and output medical examination, nursing observation, document analysis, project and execution of a physiotherapeutic schedule. The survey was carried out on 2 men and 1 woman who have jobs which require long-term sitting. Their working tasks require sitting in front of a computer for at least an 8-hour period a day. All three people submitting the given survey suffered from pain in the cervical spine. The kinesiological examination described faulty body poises and related findings on soft tissues of the given testing group. The main problem was also caused by a faulty poise while sitting in front of a computer. The objective of the aforesaid therapy concentrated on releasing the overload of stressed muscle groups and on their integration according to the optimal kinetic formula. Functional movement disorders of the spine are prevented by implementing ergonomics of sitting in front of a computer. The results of the given survey demonstrate that the cervical spine subsided. Furthermore, the practical part of the thesis reveals that the positive effect of the targeted physiotherapy dealing with functional disorder and changes of the stereotype of our postures and poises was considerable. The main problem causing pain was incorrect poise while sitting at the desk. The essential point of therapy was to release the overload of muscle groups and their integration into a new poise. The results of the given survey demonstrate that pain in the cervical spine has been alleviated. Based on the results introduced in the practical part, it may be stated that functional movement disorder can be positively influenced by targeted physiotherapy and changes made in the routine of body movements. The results specified in the submitted thesis shall be used in practice for the needs of other surveys to follow, during lessons or by companies furnishing their offices.
