  • 앉은 자세를 장시간 유지하면 허리의 만곡에 변화가 오면서 통증이 발생하게 된다. 본 연구에서는 양반 앉은자세에서 SPINE-GUARD(허리 안정화 벨트) 착용이 허리뼈의 코브각과 허리통증 그리고 몸통 굽힘각도의 변화에 미치는 영향에 대해 알아보았다. 대상자 15명(남자)은 2주 동안 주 5회 매회 90분씩 벨트를 착용한 채로 영화를 감상하거나 강의를 들었다. 허리뼈의 코브각은 착용전 $48.36{\pm}14.57$에서 착용후 $28.09{\pm}11.63$로 유의한 감소를 보였다(p<0.05). 통증은 착용전 $4.53{\pm}2.36$이고, 착용후 $2.733{\pm}2.153$로 유의하게 감소하였다(p<0.05). 몸통의 굽힘각도 또한 착용전 $82.33{\pm}20.30$에서 착용 후 $70.2{\pm}19.43$로 유의한 감소를 보였다(p<0.05). 이것으로 보아 SPINE-GUARD의 착용은 허리뼈의 코브각 및 몸통굽힘각도의 변화 그리고 통증의 감소에 영향을 주는 것으로 사료된다.

  • Objective: In this study, we applied a neurodynamic sciatic nerve sliding technique to healthy adults to elucidate its effects on hamstring flexibility and postural balance. Design: Cross-sectional study. Methods: This study targeted twenty four healthy adults (16 men, 8 women). A neurodynamic sciatic nerve sliding technique was applied 5 times to all subjects' dominant leg. The subjects were asked to sit on the bed while performing cervical and thoracic flexion, as well as knee flexion with ankle plantar flexion. Then, they were asked to perform cervical and thoracic extension and knee extension with their ankle in dorsiflexion and maintain the position for 60 s. For postural balance, we measured postural sway while the subjects maintained a one-legged standing posture using the Good Balance System and measured the hip joint flexion range of motion using a standardized passive straight leg raise (SLR) test. Results: SLR test increased significantly from $79^{\circ}$ before the intervention to $91.67^{\circ}$ after the intervention (p<0.05). Regarding the participants' balance evaluated using the one-legged standing test, the X-speed decreased significantly from 18.61 mm/s to 17.17 mm/s (p<0.05), the Y-speed decreased from 22.28 mm/s to 20.52 mm/s (p<0.05), and the velocity moment was significantly decreased from $89.33mm^2/s$ to $74.99mm^2/s$ after the intervention (p<0.05). Conclusions: Application of the neurodynamic sciatic nerve sliding technique exhibited improved hamstring flexibility and postural balance of healthy adults.
