The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of training using unstable plate on displacement and dynamic balance ability of ankle joints in women college students wearing high heel shoes. Subjects were randomly divided into experimental group and control group. 3D motion analysis was performed while walking 9cm high-heeled shoes and walking 5m. Dynamic balanced ability evaluation was performed. The intervention program was administered to experimental subjects three times a week for four weeks. They performed balance training using unstable plates. There was no intervention in the control group. The results showed that the displacement of the ankle joints in the experimental group after the intervention was decreased overall and the dynamic balance ability was significantly increased. The control group showed little change. As a result, the training using unstable plate stabilizes the ankle joints and improves the dynamic balance ability of the subjects wearing high-heeled shoes.

본 연구의 목적은 종아리 근육에 마사지를 적용하여 발목의 유연성과 균형에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 실시하였다. 연구대상자는 건강한 대학생 32명으로 마사지 적용방법에 따라 세 그룹으로 나누어 한쪽 종아리에 각 5분간, 총 10분 동안 마사지를 적용하였다. 마사지 적용 전, 후로 발목의 유연성을 측정하기 위하여 Star excursion balance test를 실시하였다. 종아리 근육 마사지 중재 후에 두 그룹 모두 기능적 뻗기 검사와 변형된 한발 서기 검사에서 마사지전보다 유의하게 증가한 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 마사지 종류에 따른 차이는 나타나지 않았다. 마사지 종류에 관계없이 종아리 근육 마사지는 발목관절의 유연성과 균형능력에 효과가 나타났다. 따라서 종아리 마사지의 적용은 균형능력을 향상시키는 방법으로 보인다.

This study examines the effects on isometric lumbar extension strength, dynamic balance ability, and range of motion, after administering 8 weeks SEBT exercise (dynamic balance exercise) and Lumbar Stabilizing exercise, to open laser lumbar microdiscectomy patients. Totally, 14 patients who underwent preservation treatment for 6 weeks after undergoing open laser lumbar microdiscectomy, were enrolled for the study. Patients were randomly assigned to the Lumbar Stabilizing Exercise Group (LSG, n=7) and SEBT Exercise + Lumbar Stabilizing Exercise Group (SGLS, n=7). Results indicate that isometric lumbar extension strength ratio significantly decreases after 8 weeks rehabilitation exercise in both the LSG (p=0.007) as well as SLSG (p=0.024) groups. Normalized reach distance of the three directions in the Y-balance test to examine the dynamic balance capability showed a significant increase in both groups. The dynamic balance capability showed significant increase to the left (LSG, p=0.010; SLSG, p=0.002) and right (LSG, p=0.002; SLSG, p=0.002). Moreover, significant increase was also obtained in the range of joint operation, in both LSG (p=0.006) and SLSG (p=0.017) groups. These results indicate that both groups of rehabilitation exercise achieve positive outcomes on the isometric lumbar extension strength, range of motion, and dynamic balance ability. However, some results suggest that the SEBT program is likely to have a better efficacy.
