Old - new urban spa
Hrušková, Ludmila ; Šindlar, Jiljí (referee) ; Hrabec, Josef (advisor)
The bachelor thesis deals with the town spa in Zábrdovice by architect Bohuslav Fuchs. Spaces were inserted into the spa, which did not burden their construction with their functions. The urbanistic study deals with the Zábrdovice area, which will become the Military Campus.

Evaluation of cryotherapy efficacy in medial and lateral epicondylitis.
Huňáček, Ondřej ; Malá, Jitka (advisor) ; Reckziegelová, Petra (referee)
Title: Evaluation of cryotherapy efficacy in medial and lateral epicondylitis Objectives: Finding out whether the combination of cryotherapy and manual physiotherapy statistically significantly affects the pain and function of the elbow joint in lateral and medial epicondylitis. Furthermore, a comparison of the group undergoing manual physiotherapeutic treatment with cryotherapy as an additive component of rehabilitation versus the group undergoing manual therapy only. Methods: Data collection was performed using a standardized Patient-Rated Elbow Evaluation (PREE) questionnaire with Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), through which probands evaluated the effect of procedures used in the control and experimental group on elbow pain and function. To determine the efficacy of examined intervention, the data collected before and after the experiment were used. To compare the control and the experimental group, the differences achieved for each group were used. For the statistical analysis the parametric tests were used, since Shapiro-Wilk tests showed a normal distribution of the data. A two-sample t-test was used to determine the homogeneity of the groups and also to compare the results between the groups. Paired t-test was used to test the change in condition before and after the experiment. All...
Objectification of selected rehabilitation techniques used to influence the muscle tone
Pavelková, Zuzana ; Šifta, Petr (advisor) ; Nováková, Pavlína (referee)
Master's thesis topic: Objectification of selected rehabilitation techniques used to influence the muscle tone Author: Bc. Zuzana Pavelková Branch of study: TVS_B Disertation Tutor: PhDr. Petr Šifta, Ph.D. Year of Defense: 2012 Abstract: The aim of this study was to discover, whether four selected rehabillitation techniques (dry-needling application, cryotherapy, stretching and kinesiotaping) influence the muscle tone of musculus gastrocnemius and musculus soleus. It was assumed, that above mentioned methods decrease the muscle tone of selected muscles, that was increased by previous running performance or owing to acute or chronic problems with Achilles tendon. The muscle tone was measured by myotonometer in Kinesiology laboratory, Faculty of Physical Education and Sport at Charles University in Prague; muscle tone of twelve students of thisfaculty was measured. Data were displayed by using an analog- digital convertor and consequently evaluated. The results of this study indicate, that four selected rehabillitation methods influence the muscle tone of musculus gastrocnemius and musculus soleus. The muscle tone was best influenced by application of dry-needling and by kinesiotaping; results of muscle tone measurement after dry-needling application and kinesiotaping confirmed above stated...
Using means of physical therapy to influence spasticity from the physiotherapist 's point of view
Bouzková, Gabriela Natálie ; Sládková, Petra (advisor) ; Matolínová, Vendula (referee)
The theme of the bachelor thesis is using means of physical therapy to influence spasticity from the physiotherapeutist's point of view. Theoretical part describes upper motor neuron syndrome and spasticity as one of its symptoms. Further it states methods of evaluation and options of influence of spasticity including latest research methods. Separate chapter is dedicated to the physical therapy, its impact on human organism and means used to treat spasticity. In the practical part the influence of cryotherapy on spasticity of upper limb of two patients after brain injury is examined. Efficiency is measured by Tardieu scale and goniometry. Main contribution of the thesis lies in gathering and analyzing of present findings, mainly on the field of physical therapy. The practical part then confirms positive effect of cryotherapy but recommends further research. Key words: spasticity, upper motor neuron syndrome, brain injury, physical therapy, cryotherapy
The Effect of Thermotherapy on Postural Stability assessed via NeuroCom SMART Equitest
Šupolík, Pavel ; Nováková, Tereza (advisor) ; Vomáčková, Helena (referee)
Title: The Effect of Thermotherapy on Postural Stability assessed via NeuroCom SMART Equitest Objective: The aim of this study is ti determine whether a one-time application of positive or negative thermotherapy has a positive or negative effect on the postural stability and/or balance in a sample of healthy young adults. The tool for achieving this goal will be statistical analysis of the results of the computerized dynamic posturography before and after application of thermotherapy. And futher a comparison with the results of the control examination. Methods: In this study we have used one-time application of positive and negative thermotherapy in the form of water immersion. A total of ten women and ten men with average age 24 years (sd = 2,18), average height 174,45 centimeters (sd = 7,72) and average weight 78,10 kilograms (sd = 18,10) took part in our study. We assessed postural stability via the NeuroCom SMART Equitest test battery. The assessment was carried out without the use of head tracker accessory. We tested each participant three times in three different days. During each day one condition was applied. Conditions consisted of positive thermotherapy (temperature of 40 řC), cryotherapy (temperature of 4 řC) and control condition. Within each session two examination were made, divided...

Therapeutic and Regenerative Effects of Cryotherapy on the 50+ generation
SOSNOVÁ, Eva
The theoretical part of the thesis deals with the life style, regeneration, and relaxation with the focus on the application of cold to treat the elderly. The work explains the use of cryotherapy from both historical and scientific points of view. The aim is to introduce the method of cryotherapy as a popular method which postpones the beginning of dependency and motion impairment with people aged over 50 and thus enables them to keep active much longer. Although the 21st century medicine has reached an extraordinary success, the number of illnesses does not decrease. There is a wide variety of civilisation illnesses resulting from the wrong life style. For such illnesses drugs with frequent side effects are prescribed. The work introduces cryotherapy as one of the methods which can serve the health protection, prevention, the treatment of traumatic injuries, and the supportive therapy of different health problems with relatively no side effects.
