Lumbar Spine Dynamic Stability/Kinetic Control

The Mark Comerford exercises are designed for the therapist who has an understanding or is familiar with dynamic stability/kinetic control or movement dysfunction concepts. The exercises are done in different positions and include setting, control (flexion, extension, rotation, lateral, flex./rot., ext./rot., associated and C.G. Shift), stabilisation and lengthening (stretches). The concept of dynamic stability/kinetic control and the analysis and correction of movement dysfunction is an ongoing process of development based on clinical application and an increasing body of academic research. Contains evidence based exercises.
