    As a Massage Therapist, I have always struggled with assessing patients. As I grow in my field, I am finding that assessments can be a fantastic tool for both physician & patient, as it can help majority of patients to see progress/change that they otherwise might have missed. So i THANK YOU very much for making these short, helpful tutorials. I would love to see you guys do a video on your favorite assessments to do on patients from different scenarios (ie, car accidents, athletes, certain professions, elderly, disabled, children, etc). Keep up the great work of teaching such valuable info to the world!

      Seems like your anser got somewhere lost - so sorry for the late answer! That´s a great idea! What we have in mind is to definitely do another video for the Gait Cylce with taped joints so you can see how many degrees of movement are happening per joint. Muscles will be harder to show ourselves, but it might be a video in which we explain more than that we show!

    I'd like you to do a video of a modern gait analysis machine (laser version) and explain what happens - or what action is taken - AFTER the gait analysis has been completed. Who gets the information, and what do they do with it? For example, I have a child with CP. He has a definite problem with his gait, and his right ankle displays distinct plantarflexion. How would the gait analysis help? Would the test maker normally be a Physio who would the make direct recommendations? Or are they normally only an operator who sends the information to the patient's own physio team to assess? And finally, are all Physios adept at deciphering this detailed information? Thank you.

  • @bolopolop5125
    @bolopolop5125 6 лет назад

    Great video. Question, how hard are you supposed to push with the toes during 'toe off'? Should the propulsion come from the toes or muscles further up the chain?? Thanks

    • @Physiotutors
      @Physiotutors  6 лет назад +1

      Thansk Bolopolop! For running performance we are not sure how much active push-off should be done to be honest as we are not specialized in running.
      However, most of the energy for toe-off should come from elastic energy that is saved within the plantar fascia that is first stretched maximally and then released at toe-off.
      We call that the "Windlass mechanism" if you are interested in further reading.

    It’s a useful video. I’m working in a gait rehabilitation robot project and I’m still at the beginning, so I’d like to know if there’s gait analysis to different ground shape?

    Help please, our adopted daughter has been a tippy-toe walker ever since she could walk...we have had her ever since she was removed from her biological parents at 3 months of age, neglected, failure to thrive), not deliberately, but due to their own developmental delays. As such, Early Intervention assessed her, remarked at how she employed pinch grip whereas most toddlers used hands in a game-like fashion...however they expressed concern over tippy-toe gait, said it can be indicative of CP or autism..., so EI specialist came and rearranged our coffee table very close to the couch and dropped her little toys around and behind it and observed her navigation and remarked how she tippy-toed retrieving her toys, but how tippy-toe'ing didn't slow her down in the least. Early Intervention reassessed her at age 3 right before adoption and the therapist asked her why she walked tippy-toe, why she didn't walk like mommy & daddy, and as she replied, she showed the therapist that when she tippy-toed, it made a certain spot in her thigh feel better, and the therapist noted that when she stood tip-toe, it forced her criss-crossed toes to undo, they literally uncrossed as tippy-toe'ing flattened them out...and she pointed to the muscle in her quads, the muscle our fingertips reach when standing. So the Therapist was then able to ruled-out CP & autism. Over the years her toes have uncrossed, yet she continues to tippy-toe but no one has been able to account for it, she's almost 10. No amount of scolding or reminding gets her to stop. She CAN walk normally (heel strike, etc),, there's nothing that stops her, and she corrects herself when we tell her, but it only lasts for as long as she remains conscious to do so, but as soon as she's engaged playing or talking, she's resumes tippy-toe'ing. About 4 or 5 times over the years she's complained about her Achilles tendon in the back of her ankle hurting, so all I can explain to her is that walking tiptoe is like being in high heels all the time, and switching to flat shoes: it can be really painful as the Achilles tendon was shortened by the feet being on their toes for so long, and suddenly changing to flats is painful as it's being stretched, but even that intermittent pain doesn't incentivize her to stop tippy-toe'ing. Her pediatrician doesn't seem too disturbed by any of it. Can I ask for your feedback, I'd hate to be missing a window of opportunity as my sister did, not getting a scoliosis corrected whilst her daughter was young. Thank you!

    Regarding the Nijmegen table, why is point 11 about absent knee extension different for left and right?

    • @Physiotutors

      I believe they're stating NA (not applicable) when analyzing a full stride and then extension limitation might not be of concern in either the L or R leg for a certain phase

    Many, many thanks! Everytime I walk, I feel a lot of pressure on my calves. Plus, people say I walk weird. I don't know if you can help me live a normal life. I am 5'5" and 140Lbs.

      +Reaz Kayum no worries! It's really hard to say why you experience problems without seeing u in person. Therefore, we recommend u to see a local Physiotherapist to evaluate your case.
