The Use of McKenzie Approach in the Therapy of low Back Pain.
Štičková, Zuzana ; Muchová, Renáta (advisor) ; Táborská, Silvie (referee)
Title of thesis The Use of McKenzie Approach in the Therapy of Low Back Pain. Abstract: The present thesis addresses the issue of treatment of low back pain and in this respect considers the effectiveness of the McKenzie method. The first sections of the theoretical part of this thesis are focused on the kinesiology and pathology of the components of the lumbar spine. Further sections explain the principles of the mechanical diagnosis and therapy, i.e. the McKenzie method. Their focus is to present the specific features and advantages of this approach. The aim of the practical part is to assess the effectiveness of the McKenzie method in patients with chronic low back pain whose previous treatment had no or only a short term effect. Qualitative research based on three case studies has been chosen to achieve this aim. By assessing and comparing both subjective parameters (e.g. the intensity, distribution and frequency of pain) and objective parameters (e.g. the range of motion, neurological symptoms) before and after the treatment by the McKenzie method, its effectiveness for the use in therapy of chronic low back pain was determined. The results testify in favour of the McKenzie method as a convenient approach in treating patients with this diagnosis. Key words: McKenzie, mechanical diagnosis and therapy,...

Monitoring the effect of physiotherapy from the view of a patient with discopathy using Oswestry disability index Subtitle: By means of Robin McKenzie method
Šrytr, Martin ; Šímová, Alena (advisor) ; Leško, Juraj (referee)
This thesis is focused on the treatment of chronic lumbar back pain using Robin McKenzie method as a therapeutic approach. The theoretical part deals with the physiology of the spine, its pathophysiology and complications related to that. It also presents the McKenzie method, its fundamentals and clinical use. It also describes the Oswestry disability index, which was chosen as a subjective tool for evaluating the effectiveness of therapies from the patient's perspective. The practical part aims to answer the question whether the McKenzie method is a suitable tool for influencing chronic back pain. To answer this question a qualitative research in the form of case studies was made. The key role for assessing the effect of therapy was played by intensity of pain, which was evaluated by the Oswestry questionnaire, dynamics of the spine and neurological symptoms. The results, which were concluded during therapies, argue in favour of the Robin McKenzie method, which is a suitable therapeutic approach to influence chronic lumbar back pain.

Application of R. McKenzie's method in the therapy of functional disorders of the cervical spine
Fílová, Veronika ; Kuba, Kryštof (advisor) ; Jakovcová, Karolína (referee)
BACHELOR THESIS ABSTRACT Name, surname: Veronika Fílová Supervisor: PhDr. Kryštof Kuba Cert. MDT Consultant: Mgr. Silvie Táborská Title: Application of R. McKenzie's method in the therapy of functional disorders of the cervical spine Abstract: This bachelor thesis is dealing with application of Robin McKenzie's method in the therapy of functional disorders of the cervical spine. The aim of this work is to describe the practical use of mechanical diagnosis and therapy in patients with functional disorders of the cervical spine and also to point out the early indication of surgical treatment without applying all conservative treatment options. This bachelor thesis serves also as a basis for the diploma thesis which will focus in more details on the use of this method in the therapy of cervicobrachial syndrome. In the theoretical part of the thesis there is a brief description of anatomy and kinesiology of the cervical spine, the patophysiology of the cervical spine and there is also a description of mechanical diagnosis and therapy. In the practical part, there are case histories of five patients with functional disorders of the cervical spine. The McKenzie's method was used for examination and therapy. The problems were resolved in four patients in an average of 23.5 days. The last patient discontinued the...

Overview of physiotherapeutic concepts and methods usable in the therapy of patients with vertebrogenic diseases. Subtitle: Selected physiotherapeutic concepts and their comparison with the McKenzie method (mechanical diagnostic and therapy)
Kratochvílová, Anna ; Konopáčová, Eva (advisor) ; Šenderová, Karolína (referee)
OF BACHELOR THESIS Author: Anna Kratochvílová Supervisor: Ing. Eva Konopáčová Opponent: Title of bachelor thesis: Overview of physiotherapeutic concepts and methods usable in the therapy of vertebrogenic patients, subtitle: Selected physiotherapeutic concepts and their comparison with the McKenzie method (mechanical diagnostic and therapy) Abstract of bachelor thesis: The topic of the bachelor thesis is an overview of physiotherapeutic concepts and methods usable in the therapy of patients with vertebrogenic diseases and comparison of their efficacy with the McKenzie method (mechanical diagnostics and therapy). The thesis is composed in a recherche form and is divided into general and special part. The general part of the thesis deals with the overview of vertebrogenic diseases and the possibilities of their treatment. It describes the prevalence, etiology and individual structural and functional causes of vertebrogenic diseases. In the following chapters, the individual treatment options are summarized, and the physiotherapeutic concepts and methods frequently used are described. The special part based on systematic recherche explores the efficacy of the McKenzie method in the treatment of patients in the acute, subacute and chronic phases of lower back pain and the effect of the method on...
