1 Neck & Trunk Glory Hospital

2 Controlling the body s position in space Antigravity movement We use multiple sensory for posture control - Vestibular system in gravity - Visual system in our enviroment - Somatosensory systerm(the support surface)

3

4 Characteristics of the Neck & Trunk Atlanto-occipital joint Atlanto-occipital junction is key-point of mechanical balance Atlanto-axial joint Axis can trun head and neck without shoulder Cervical is very smaller but most highter mobility Under the C3 structure is light and simply

5 Characteristics of the Neck & Trunk Thoracic connect cervical and lumbar spine Thoracic spinous process are long, sharp And directed downwards - Thoracic spine kyphosis - Hyperextension protect

6 Important of Neck & Trunk Cervical proprioceptive modify vestibular response -vestibular sway depend on cervical proprioceptive Vestibular signals about movement and position of the head are critical for self-motion perception, which draws on spatially representing one s own-body movements with respect to the external environment Three major vestibular reflexs - Vestibulo- ocular(vor) - Vestibulo-collic(VCR) - Vestibulo-spinal(VSR)

7 Important of Neck & Trunk Vestibulo-ocular(VOR) - Keep the eyes still in space when the head moves(visual fixation) Vestibulo-collic(VCR) - Keep the head still in space or on a level plane when you walk Vestibulo-spinal(VSR) - Adjusts posture for rapid changes in position

8 Important of Neck & Trunk Head turns to the left -Eyes trun to the right to maintain frontal gaze Left semicircular canal excitation -L medial rectus R lateral rectus contraction!

9 Important of Neck & Trunk Ventromedial part VOR MVST: C and T levels Ext VSR VCR LVST: Extensor(+), Flexor(- ) (calf muscle.)

10 Important of Neck & Trunk Rotation of the thoracic spine is critical for normal function. The thorax is a central area of force transmission between the legs and lumbopelvis, and the arms and neck, and axial rotation is the dominant motion of the thoracic region. Appropriately controlled Thoracic rotation is essential for movement of the upper body and orientation of the upper extremities for use of the hands. Recticulospinal track is to maintain our posture, Before we lift weight our arms, muscle of the leg are excited to support our body posture. This posture control is via the fast acting excitatory action of the pontine reticulospinal track.

11 Important of Neck & Trunk MRST: UL, Trunk, LL LRST: Flexor(+), Extensor(-)

12 Movement of Neck & Trunk Neutral neck position: extension 30~35 The biggest movement: C5~6 Cervical Flexion and Extension

37 Movement of Neck & Trunk # ANTICIPATORY POSTURAL ADJUSTMENTS in the trunk are executed before or along with a focal movement of the limb. # Their major role is 1to prepare the trunk against destabilizing forces imposed by the movement of the limb 2to orient the trunk in space. # The central nervous system uses several strategies (postural preparation, anticipatory postural adjustments, reactive postural adjustments) to regulate control of posture during movement.

38 Movement of Neck & Trunk an unexpected (filled circles) and expected (unfilled circles) ventral load. co-contraction of the trunk flexors and extensors has been found to increase the stability of the spine (Bergmark 1989; Gardner-Morse & Stokes 1998)

39 unilateral flexion (a) and extension (b) of the arm 39

40 Network system 1. Lovett reaction Righting Reflex Lovett Reactor In order to maintain postural homeostasis, the body is continuously compensating, keeping itself balanced over the feet and its head over the cervical spine with the eyes level to the horizon. Lovett (1905) described a coupling of motion the different vertebrae in the spine (commonly referred to as the Lovett Reactor): each vertebrae is coupled in motion with another vertebrae : Spinal Coupling: C1 should move in a similar direction as L5 C2 should move in a similar direction as L4 C3 should move in a similar direction as L3 C4 should move in the opposite direction as L2 C5 should move in the opposite direction as L1 This continues downward to T5 which moves in the opposite direction as T6

41 Stand up Move your hip to one side Network system The following simple experiment demonstrates this automatic, subconscious postural reflex: Your ribcage automatically tilts in the opposite direction Your neck automatically tilts in the same direction as your hip This automatic reflex (tilt in posture) maintains your head over your cervical spine, your eyes level to the horizon and your weight over your feet. In essence, the Lovett Reactor is a description of what occurs in the pelvis, vertebrae when the Righting Reflex is working correctly.

42 Networking system 2. Janda s Approach Our bodies not a single and connected by one. In this functionally connected muscle called muscle sling. Muscle sling provide stability and mobility with movement Trunk muscle sling facilitated upper and lower crossed gait pattern and rotation trunk stability
