Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Monitoring of non-motor manifestations of reflex locomotion according to Professor Vojta in laboratory conditions on healthy woman probands.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The accompanying non-local manifestations during a maximum of 20 minutes of pressure stimulation of the zones defined by the concept of Professor Vojta will be observed. We will also examine the possible correlation between the magnitude of the response to Vojta Reflex Locomotion (VRL) and the degree of stress and anxiety on the part of the study participants. Approximately 20-30 participants will take part in the research. Manual stimulation of defined zones will be performed by an experienced physiotherapist who has successfully completed a course in the Vojta method. A Trigno Wireless EMG System Delsys device will be used to measure electrical muscle activity. Kistler force plates and a pliance-x® sensing system pedobarography device will be used to measure changes in standing. The SP-10 Pocket Spirometer Gima and wireless ECG will be used to measure changes in breathing and circulation. In addition, the DASS-42 and POMS questionnaires will be used. The aim of the study is to clarify whether during manual pressure stimulation of the zones defined by the above concept there is a change in electrical muscle activity, specific activity of the autonomic nervous system and whether there is a different partial pressure distribution in standing after the stimulation. Last but not least, the aim of the study is also to determine a possible correlation between the response rate to VRL and the level of stress and anxiety on the part of the study participants. All probands will be familiarized with the experimental measurement procedure and will sign an informed consent form prior to the start of the experiment. Measurements will be taken in the kinesiology laboratory of Physiotherapy department.

Allocation Method

NON_RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

SEQUENTIAL

These are healthy adult women. The expected number of participants is 20-30. To participate in the study, participants must agree to participate voluntarily. Contraindications for participation include psychiatric illness, cancer, acute inflammatory diseases, and pregnancy. Persons with signs of acute illness or injury or in recovery from acute illness or injury will not be eligible for testing. Subjects who, like the investigators, are students at FTVS UK will be personally approached and selected by the principal investigators. No email or phone number contacts will be used.
