Femoral neuropathy due to patellar dislocation in a theatrical and jazz dancer: a case report.

This case report describes a teenage female, high-level modern dancer who suffered multiple left patellar dislocations. Her history is atypical in that after her fifth dislocation, her recovery was hindered secondary to persistent weakness and atrophy of her quadriceps out of proportion to disuse alone. Electrodiagnostic studies and magnetic resonance imaging showed evidence of a subacute femoral neuropathy correlating chronologically with her most recent patellar dislocation. This case suggests that further diagnostic study may be warranted in patients with persistent quadriceps weakness or a

Achilles Tendinosis Stopping the Progression to Disability.

The purpose of this article is to differentiate between acute Achilles tendinitis and chronic Achilles tendinosis and to highlight a specific treatment protocol for mid-portion Achilles tendinosis. Tendinosis (degeneration of the tendon) results from chronic tissue injury and has long-term implications for a dancer's career. An eccentric heavy-load exercise protocol has been used successfully to treat tendinosis in athletes. A modified eccentric exercise protocol is proposed as one component of an effective rehabilitation program for dancers. This protocol facilitates tissue remodeling to buil

Overuse injuries in classical ballet.

Successful management of classical ballet dancers with overuse injuries requires an understanding of the art form, precise knowledge of anatomy and awareness of certain conditions. Turnout is the single most fundamental physical attribute in classical ballet and 'forcing turnout' frequently contributes to overuse injuries. Common presenting conditions arising from the foot and ankle include problems at the first metatarsophalangeal joint, second metatarsal stress fractures, flexor hallucis longus tendinitis and anterior and posterior ankle impingement syndromes. Persistent shin pain in dancers

Brazilian Samba Protocol for Individuals With Parkinson's Disease: A Clinical Non-Randomized Study.

BACKGROUND: In the 10 most populated countries in the world, Parkinson's disease (PD) affects more than 5 million individuals. Despite optimal treatment options already developed for the disease, concomitant involvement of other areas of health care plays an important role in complementing the treatment. From this perspective, dancing can be viewed as a non-drug alternative that can reduce falls by improving some motor skills, such as mobility, balance, gait, and posture, and can also improve the overall quality of life. Brazilian samba promotes improvement in motor and non-motor symptoms in i

Management of a patient with a diagnosis of bilateral plantar fasciitis and Achilles tendinitis. A case report.

This case report describes an approach for determining when fabricated orthoses might be useful in the treatment of a patient with foot-related problems. The patient is of special interest because she is an aerobics instructor, and her type of injury is relatively common. Particular emphasis in the report is placed on hypothesizing the cause of the patient's complaints and then basing treatment on that hypothesis.

A brief history of psychiatry: millennia past and present--part III.

Release of emotion through a variety of means has often been seen as healing. Throughout the centuries many cultures dealt with stress by bringing relief through methods like dancing, ritual, or confession. The idea of discovering not always conscious emotions and their release through talking became important in 19th-century psychological treatments. The 20th century has seen a flowering of psychoanalytical, behavioral, cognitive behavioral, and many other psychotherapies. These have been used in individual, group, or martial/family settings, inpatient and outpatient. There have been disagree

Treatment of depression.

Depressions are the most common psychiatric diseases. For treatment, plant extracts have been used for thousands of years: examples are extracts from the (sleeping) poppy (opium), deadly nightshade (Atropa belladonna), Indian hemp (hashish), henbane (hyoscyamine), thorn apple (scopolamine), and St. John's wort (hypericum oil). In addition, psychotherapeutic measures, like playing music, dancing, playing theatre, and also the temple sleep, were used. In the 19th century, the introduction of brome (1826), codeine (1832), chloral hydrate (1869), and paraldehyde (1882), as well as the barbiturates

The Role of Integrative Therapies in the Management of Trauma-related Disorders Amongst Refugees.

BACKGROUND: It is well recognised that there is a high prevalence of trauma-related disorders amongst people of refugee background. Integrative approaches that utilise complementary therapies in combination with conventional Western treatments including psychological therapy and pharmacotherapy are consistent with culturally responsive care. AIM: To explore the evidence base for complementary therapies in the management of trauma-related disorders amongst refugees and summarise the evidence base for integrative approaches of relevance to the management of trauma-related disorders in this popu

Culture, Psychiatry and Epigenetics.

Regarding the methodology of ethnopsychiatric research, for example, on the Vietnamese Mo Mường's burial rituals or the health-promoting and healing effects of the Chinese Tujia dances, three different approaches can be distinguished: phenomenological-descriptive methods, hermeneutic-interpretive techniques and studies on underlying mechanisms such as hypnotherapeutic or neuroendocrine dynamics. Since epigenetics has shown that cultural and artistic experiences can influence gene expression and genetic functioning, even across generations, the article argues for greater consideration of epigen

Case studies in cervicothoracic spine function evaluation and treatment of two dancers with mechanical neck pain.

It has been reported that manual therapy directed at the thoracic spine followed by exercise may improve outcomes in patients with mechanical neck pain. At this point, there is little available data on dancers with neck pain, and it is unclear whether this type of treatment is appropriate for restoring the rigorous level of activity required of the dancer. The purpose of this study was to review the evaluation, clinical decision-making process, and treatment of two dancers-one with acute and the other with chronic neck pain-who fell into the classification of patients who might benefit from an

Colors of the mind: a meta-analysis of creative arts therapy as an approach for post-traumatic stress disorder intervention.
