The claw health of 139 heifers with a mean age of 22.1 months (SD: 2.6) in seven free stall dairy farms in Lower Austria was evaluated. Claw lesions were assessed during functional claw trimming and documented and analysed using the digital program Claw Manager. For documentation of lesions, each claw was divided into 10 zones. The prevalence of lameness, claw lesions and their severity were de...

The article presents the results of assessing functional state autonomic nervous system in patients with circulatory disorders vertebrobasilar system. It has been established that addition neuro-reflex diagnostic methods (dynamic segmental diagnostics and manual examination) improves assessment sympathetic allows monitoring effectiveness etiopathogenetic therapy. application reflexotherapy biod...

PURPOSE The aim of this feasibility study was to examine the use of reflexology lymphatic drainage (RLD) in the treatment of breast-cancer related lymphoedema (BCRL) with a view to further research. METHODS An uncontrolled trial was conducted with 26 women who had developed lymphoedema in one arm following treatment for breast cancer. Changes in upper-limb volumes and in participant concerns ...

Methods: One hundred four over age 40 who were diagnosed osteoarthritis had complaints for at least 6 months included study. The applications pr...

It has been known for some time that populations of cutaneous and muscle afferents can provide short-latency facilitation of motoneuron pools. Recently, it has been shown that the input from individual low-threshold mechanoreceptors in the glabrous skin of the hand can modulate ongoing activity in muscles acting on the fingers via spinally mediated pathways. We have extended this work to examin...

The article evaluates the use of Vojt diagnostics and therapy during rehabilitation in modern conditions for adults children.
 Reflex-locomotor was developed by Vaclav Vojta as a diagnostic therapeutic tool. At very beginning study, V. described two different motor complexes, reflex crawling turning, which are triggered adequate location stimulation corresponding trigger zones. Due to this...

The distribution of the reflex effects of isometric exercise on cutaneous vasomotor and sudomotor function is not clear. We examined the effects of isometric exercise by different muscle masses on skin blood flow (SkBF) and sweat rate (SR) in nonglabrous skin and in glabrous skin. The latter contains arteriovenous anastomoses (AVAs), which cause large fluctuations in SkBF. SkBF was measured by ...
