허리골반 안정화 운동이 다리정렬과 균형에 미치는 영향

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Swiss ball exercise influences on leg length discrepancy, hamstring flexibility discrepancy, and balance ability in subjects with malalignment syndrome. Twenty subjects with malalignment syndrome participated in a exercise program using a Swiss ball which consisted of three sets of ten repetitions per set. All subjects’ leg length discrepancy, hamstring flexibility discrepancy, and balance ability were measured twice: pre, and post intervention. Functional leg length was measured with a tape measure to determine leg length discrepancy. Hamstring flexibility discrepancy was determined by measuring active knee extension range with a goniometer. Balance ability was measured by single leg stance time on a balance board. Leg length discrepancy and hamstring flexibility discrepancy were decreased post—intervention, balance ability on both legs increased post—intervention. These findings suggest that lumbopelvic stabilization exercise using a Swiss ball decreases leg length discrepancy and hamstring flexibility discrepancy while increasing balance ability in subjects with malalignment syndrome, indicating that these exercises improve lower extremity alignment and may prevent future problems such as lower back pain.
