Abstract

Background: The musculoskeletal disorders with asymmetrical gait on the whole body are the most common. This study was designed to analyze that General Coordinative Manipulation Intervention Models would affect the balanced restoration of asymmetrical gait. Methods: 68 healthy volunteers(1st hypothesis: 46, 2nd hypothesis 22) participated in the two GCM intervention models, which have performed 2 times a week for 3 weeks. Digital Camera was used to measure the gait, and measurements were performed before and after the application of the each intervention model. Repeated measured ANOVA was used to determine a statistical significance. Results: The outcome of examining hypothesis is as follows: 1. The 1st hypothesis : GCM Intervention based on the coordinating the flexion type of upper body and the extension type of lower body will improve in the balanced restoration of asymmetrical gait because it offers a clear direction for treatment(p<.05). 2. The 2nd hypothesis: GCM Intervention based on the coordinating the flexion type of lower body and the extension type of upper body will improve in the balanced restoration of asymmetrical gait because it offers a clear direction for treatment(p<.05). Conclusion: GCM intervention programs on the two hypothesis groups have effects on the balanced restoration of asymmetrical gait(p<.05).
