Influence of Thoracolumbar Proprioceptive Support in the Segmental Stabilization Training

November 25, 2011 updated by: Fuad Ahmad Hazime, Universidade Federal do Piauí
Proprioceptive training has been shown to be effective in increasing the efficiency of motor-sensory tissues that stabilize the trunk. The investigators hypothesis is that proprioceptive support do influence in the activation of the transversus abdominis muscle (TrA) during segmental stabilization training.
