A case study utilizing spinal manipulation and dynamic neuromuscular stabilization care to enhance function of a post cerebrovascular accident patient

Effects of shoulder girdle dynamic stabilization exercise on hand muscle strength

“…We used a novel rehabilitation approach, the DNS [10][11][12], to examine whether exercise promoting optimal proximal shoulder girdle stabilization would positively influence distal handgrip strength. Research illustrates that shoulder and elbow angles have significant effects on handgrip strength [1][2][3][4][5][6].…”

“…The intervention was based on the proximal Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization (DNS) exercise paradigm [10][11][12], which includes a comprehensive stabilization of all elements of the trunk. Trunk and shoulder girdle stabilization is an important factor in the overall function of upper body musculature, presumably including the hand muscles.…”

Effect of different neuromuscular training modalities on postural stability in healthy recreation people: A randomized controlled trial

“…In the results of this study, DNS is effective for improving some parameters of postural control balance, and previous research con rms that DNS training modalities effectively increase different aspects of stability [7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14]40 . DNS training typically involves a series of exercises designed to activate and stabilize the deep stabilizing muscles of the trunk and pelvis, such as the diaphragm, transversus abdominis, and pelvic oor muscles.…”

“…Frank et al 7 emphasize that the basic principles of DNS concentrate on core stabilization, centralization of joints and segments, movement awareness, quality respiratory function and support. DNS offers a rehabilitative and manual approach that practitioners can use to improve functional treatment and optimize the movement system in athletes by rebuilding stability performance [7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14] . One of the latest research on applying DNS in a sample of elite futsal players and race walkers indicates that DNS therapy effectively increases performance and balance 15,16 .…”

Functional postural-stabilization tests according to Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization approach: Proposal of novel examination protocol

“…DNS manual treatment makes use of specific functional exercises to improve spinal and joint stability by focusing on the integrated stabilization system (Frank et al, 2013). Although statistical reliability of the DNS tests is limited good effect of DNS therapeutic procedures (Cha et al, 2018;Davidek et al, 2018;Juehring and Barber, 2011;Kim et al, 2017;Kobesova et al, 2018Kobesova et al, , 2015Oppelt et al, 2014;Son et al, 2017;Yoon and You, 2017) suggests clinical utility of the DNS tests since the therapy, training and individual correction of the clients in the studies listed above was always based on DNS functional tests. A study exploring reliability of individual DNS tests has been in process.…”
