A Tai Chi Chuan training model to improve balance control in older adults.
The first goal of this article is to present nine Tai Chi Chuan training principles and incorporate them into a current model of motor control and motor learning theory. The second goal is to present a Tai Chi Chuan training model. The third goal is to construct a theory as to how Tai Chi Chuan principles may improve balance and motor skills in an aging population. Evidence from the areas of mo...
متن کاملTai chi and postural stability in patients with Parkinson's disease.
BACKGROUND Patients with Parkinson's disease have substantially impaired balance, leading to diminished functional ability and an increased risk of falling. Although exercise is routinely encouraged by health care providers, few programs have been proven effective. METHODS We conducted a randomized, controlled trial to determine whether a tailored tai chi program could improve postural contro...
متن کاملThe Effects of Tai Chi Training on the Cardiovascular Health and Postural Control of Older Adults—a Mind- Body Perspective
Aging is a worldwide phenomenon which causes health, social and economic problems. Healthy aging has been the focus of many scholarly investigations, particularly with regard to cardiovascular disease and postural control problems causing falls. Arterial compliance is an index reflecting artery function, and it is closely related to cardiovascular health. Decreased arterial compliance is associ...
متن کاملSimplified Tai Chi Resistance Training versus Traditional Tai Chi in Slowing Bone Loss in Postmenopausal Women
Background. This study examined whether simplified Tai Chi resistance training is superior to traditional Tai Chi in slowing bone loss in postmenopausal women. Methods. This prospective trial included 119 postmenopausal women (age: 52-65 years). Subjects were randomly assigned to participate in a traditional Tai Chi program (TTC, n = 40), a simplified Tai Chi resistance training program (TCRT, ...
متن کاملComplexity-Based Measures Inform Effects of Tai Chi Training on Standing Postural Control: Cross-Sectional and Randomized Trial Studies
BACKGROUND Diminished control of standing balance, traditionally indicated by greater postural sway magnitude and speed, is associated with falls in older adults. Tai Chi (TC) is a multisystem intervention that reduces fall risk, yet its impact on sway measures vary considerably. We hypothesized that TC improves the integrated function of multiple control systems influencing balance, quantifiab...
