The PNS has two main jobs:
1️⃣ Sending sensory info (touch, temperature, pain) TO your brain.
2️⃣ Carrying commands FROM your brain to your muscles and glands (move, sweat, digest!).
It's the reason you can feel the world around you and react to it! Pretty amazing, right? ✨

The Nervous Centre

Over the next few weeks, I going to present a little about our incredible nervous system.

🟡It's the most amazing control centre and is truly something not to be underestimated, it controls everything 🤯🟡

🟠From a physiological point🟠
Physical/chemical functions of our organs, cells and all their parts working together.
🫀heart beating
🫁breathing

🟢To psychological reactions🟢
Our mind's reactions, mentally processing information of our thoughts, emotions and how we then behave to them.
👀Have you ever watched a scary movie and noticed your heart beat faster and your hands sweat?

❗️PAIN❗️
Can be both a physiological and psychological response.
Injuring yourself can trigger different levels of pain, but emotions and coping mechanisms will also influence the level of perceived pain you experience.

Commonly seen in practice. High right hip and low right shoulder.
Of course, there are other types of deviations. This is just one.

Some people may go through most of their lives: just fine like this. Maybe a few niggles here and there.
You are more likely to start feeling discomfort or pain when you become active after having been inactive for a period of time..

Where might you start to feel the pain??
Groin
Tibial stress
Lateral patella tracking
Achilles tendinopathy
Stain with hip balance (hip drop)
Plantar fascitis
Knee pain
Ankle pain
Lower back pain
Neck pain
TO NAME A FEW

There are a few reasons why you may start to feel pain if your body is out of alignment.
*Jobs with high work loads and repeative strain.
*started running without having your gait and posture checked.
*poor training form.
*sitting for long periods of time.

Getting familiar with your own walking gait/posture can help hugely.

I will identify a trigger point and decide how I will treat it.

I will use what I feel to be the best method of treatment for this area.

I will then investigate why this trigger point has manifested and develop a strategy to prevent them from returning.

YOUR AREA OF PAIN MAY NOT BE WHERE THE TRIGGER POINT CAN BE FOUND.

Your pain may come from regional areas or the trigger point itself.

‼️Stance phase in swing‼️

The right leg moves from heel-strike to toe-off (stance phase) and body weight shifts over to the right leg. This will allow the pelvis to shift laterally (to the side) to the right. As we move into toe-off, your right pelvic bone begins to rotate the other way. It goes into anterior rotation and the other side does the opposite and rotate posteriorly repeating the cycle on the other leg.

Moving onmid-stanced stance phase of gait. Tension is reduced in the hamstrings as the pelvis rotates anteriorly. The sacrotuberous ligament slackens so that the pelvis can stabilise.

Here is where the Glute Max fires up to take on the role of leg extension allowing the limb to continue it's movement working in tune with the contralateral latissimus dorsi (left side). Both these muscles cause tension in the thoracolumbar fascia (sheet of connective tissue)to stabilise the SI joint.

👀👀Looking at the picture👀👀👀
Latissimus dorsi tensions to allow extension of the arm with counter-rotation to assist in push off from the foot with the Glute Max fired up.
As we return to heel strike Glute Max is in full stretch and the Latissimus dorsi also in full stretch ready for the next heel strike.

🦶🦶🦶🦶HEEL STRIKE 🦶🦶🦶🦶

⚠️⚠️HOW MIGHT INPROPER GAIT MAY EFFECT YOU ANKLE/KNEE/HIPS/SHOULDERS? ⚠️⚠️

➡️High arched feet?
➡️Flat foot feet?
Every single step you take will effect your posture. If your feet don't work well you might experience pain or discomfort.

As you contact the ground with your leg during this phase, the right hip is in a position of flexion and the knee is extended. The ankle is dorsiflexed (toes pointing up) and the foot is in a position of supination (inverted). The tibialis anterior works with the tibialis posterior maintaining this position.
All the above now become part of the posterior longitudinal myofasical sling!
Starting at the lower limb, the tibialis anterior then continues to the peroneus longus.
It then moves on to the upper leg to the biceps femoris(lateral hamstring!) Where it then joins the sacrotuberous ligament at the bottom of our hip.

The sling then carries on and finishes on the contralateral (opposite side) multifidi/erector spinae.
Even before you initiate contact to the ground, coactivation of these muscles have started!

THE GAIT SEQUENCE

Most of us are blessed to have a body with 2 legs and 2 arms.

We are a complex human being. If something muscular or even skeletal is not working we can end up with odd-looking walking gait!

For every step we take one foot needs to hit the ground and that cycle finishes when that same foot hits the ground again.

There are 2 phases.
STANCE🧍‍♀️👨‍🦯‍➡️🕺🤺
SWING🚶‍♀️🏃‍♀️💃⛹️‍♂️

It's starts with the STANCE phase. (Weigh bearing leg)
HEEL STRIKE
MID STANCE
PROPULSION

Ending with the SWING phase.
TOE OFF

Over the next few posts, we will go through each stage. Break it down bit by bit!
