The CLT® works with muscle synergies in Sprinter/Skater Coordinations by controlling the key points (position of tuber ossis ischii and angulus inferior scapulae) to help address and correct muscular imbalances. This is connected with a neurological response and an efficient contracting of all body muscles for a normal movement.
The Sprinter/Skater Patterns activate the whole body, when, for example, with one leg in the closed chain (one foot on the ground or on the wall), therapists can predict the direction and a degree of the patient’s responses and maximize the desired effects.
Changing the function of a single segment in rehabilitation re-coordinates the whole system.
Facilitation has an influence on the whole person and the aim is to achieve antigravity locomotion in every position. The client recognizes and acquires fast, desirable movements as a result of using implicit patterns of normal movements in gait which are registered in the motor cortex (Dietz, B. 2009, 2017.)
Shepherd and Carr (2005) suggested that gaiting exercises on individual parts are ineffective and that it is necessary to implement weight-bearing exercise followed by a lower limb control and muscle and muscle enhancement regimens.
During the treatment, we provide Security lines ® which immediately catch the inner and outer core muscles. When core stability and strength are provided the whole body reacts with a better balance and movement.
