research

We are constantly assessing and collating information from our clients with the view to publishing some longitudinal research. Examples of some of the areas we are investigating include:

Disability, fear avoidance and pain…a longitudinal study
In 2006 we recommenced a retrospective study of long standing attendees at Physiocise to assess any changes in their perceived disability, fear avoidance and pain levels.

---

The floppy body. What are the most common characteristics of the hypermobile client?

An evaluation of the common features of clinically hypermobile clients with symptomatic back pain.

---

Can you teach a transverses abdominus contraction in a class situation? A pilot study.

We conducted some pilot research on our level 1 classes to discover whether we were able to effectively teach TA contraction without the aid of ultrasound. We discovered that we a can be very effective at teaching this but also found out some useful info about which positions men and women are best able to activate TA in.
