Recently, polymer mortar has been developed not only more improving the performance of modified mortar with polymer, but also protecting and repairing materials of structures, especially in marine environment because of their excellent performance to improve compressive strength, flexural strength, and adhesive strength. however, in fact, these rehabilitation techniques in marine environment, which consist of removing delaminated areas of concrete, cleaning affected steel and patching with polymer mortar, have proven to be ineffective for marine structures. Also, repairs are often repeated every several years. Therefore, it is neccessary to research performance evalution of chloride ion penetration of polymar mortar for section restoration.

Physical therapists use assumptions about motor control in every aspect of their work in treating stroke patients. An understanding of the recovery process after stroke, some neural mechanism of recovery and therapeutic model is critical factor for physical therapist to evaluate and obtain a higher final stage of recovery. The purpose of this article was to review the recovery process after stroke, some neural mechanism of recovery, the role of rehabilitation in the process of recovery, therapeutic model and its limitation. This article will help understanding of recovery process. evaluation, and treatment of the stroke patients. Each therapeutic method consists of a different set of assumptions and they are not completely independent of one another. Therefore specializing in any techniques of physical therapy will not be enough to treat stroke, so we are in need of integrated approach and objective measurement instrument to adequately evaluate and treat stroke patients.

Proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation(PNF), pelvic patterns are very important for orthopaedic and neurologic patient. It is an essential treatment techniques for motor developmental disorder. CVA, lumbar disk, muscle weekness and pain control of lumbar, pelvic and lower extremity, Pelvic patterns of PNP has 4 different type of basic pattern. each of them is combinding of movement plane and functional movement. Biomechanically most of PNF patterns are a concentric contraction with third-class lever. But the movement pattern have a technique of combination of isotonic that should make a eccentric contraction with second-class lever.

The purpose of this study was to emphasize the strategy of the home visiting physical therapy for elderly patients who have joint and musculoskeletal problems, disabled person who staying in home and early discharged person who staying in home with replacement of artificial hip joint and central nerve system problems with CP, CVA, SCI etc. Home visiting physical therapist can provide evaluation and diagnosis, treatment with their special knowledge and techniques, treatment council and education for the patients and family member and refer the patients to other specialist. Home visiting physical therapy can expects that patients will have better treatment with emotionally, economically and for long term care patients.

The multiple acupuncture techniques have been used to relieve the pain of lateral ankle sprain. Recently, early functional rehabilitation is emphasized in rehabilitative concepts using active ROM, facilitated proprioception, alphabet exercise and so forth. Similarly, in oriental rehabilition medicine, traditional movement technique called 'Dong-Ki' has been used to relieve pain of ankle sprain. So we used 'Dong-Ki' technique with SSP(silver spike point) electrotherapy transformed from alphabet exercise and evaluated the effects in method of randomized controlled trials. 27 outpatients with lateral ankle sprains were randomized into two groups : 15 samples and 12 controls. Sample group was treated with 'Dong-Ki' technique(writing his name with foot) with SSP electrotherapy to relieve pain during additionally. 'Dong-Ki'. Outcomes were measured by 10cm VAS and ankle circumference(cm). In terms of VAS, Sample group had inclination of pain relieving but not significantly meaningful. In terms of ankle circumference measurement, Sample group showed significantly improved.

Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the effect of physiotherapy on the range of motion (ROM) of patients with hemophilic arthropathy after total knee replacement (TKR) during treadmill gait. Method: Nineteen patients (age range, 30-61 years) who received physiotherapy at the Korea Hemophilia Foundation (KHF) Clinic in Seoul between 2011 and 2013 after TKR were recruited. Protocol rehabilitation was performed (KHF Clinic, Department of Physiotherapy) with an average follow-up of 70 days (range, 6-141 days). Result: Physiotherapy after TKR improved the ROM parameters, including the post-operative average ROM. The post-operative and follow-up ROM also significantly increased. Conclusion: Patients with hemophilia require different physiotherapeutic techniques and need dedicated post-operative care in comparison with the general population.

A Study of Clinical Application of the Connective Tissue Massage General massage is termed kneading and rubbing. It will bring the effect of blood volume and cardiovascular reaction. Connective tissue massage is a diagnostic and treatment method. But the general massage has not diagnostic aspect. Connective tissue massage techniques are stimulating and stretching the LCT, mast cell, collagenous fiber, fascia, skin, muscle and nerve tissue. Diagnostic aspects of connective tissue massage are visible investigation, manual investigation, and stroking on the reflex zone. CTM do stroking with 3, 4th finger tips on the whole body for the treatment.

Voice therapy after post-thyroidectomy dysphonia is designed to improve glottal closure without supraglottic hyperfunction by development of abdominal support for breathing and intrinsic muscle strengthening exercises. Regarding voice therapy of unilateral vocal fold paresis/paralysis, several techniques such as head positioning, digital manipulation, pushing and pulling method are used for trial or temporary therapy. And the holistic voice therapy such as LSVT, Accent method, VFE are useful for hypofunctional voice disorders. These may be effective interventions as a temporary improvement until normal voice recovers or may provide the essentials for long-term rehabilitation.

Plantar fasciitis is a common pathological condition of the foot and often be a challenge for clinicans to successfully treat. The purpose of this article is to present and discuss selected literature on the function and anatomy, causes, symptoms and clinical treating methods of plantar fasciitis. A majority of patients with plantar fasciitis present with either a pronated or a cave foot. Pain is usually localized to the plantar medial heel at the attachment of the plantar fascia to the calcaneus. Surgical and nonsurgical techniques have been used in the treatment of plantar fasciitis. Nonsurgical management for the treatment of the symptoms and discomfort associated with plantar fasciitis can be classified into brod categories: reducing pain and inflammation. reducing tissue stress to a tolerable level, and restoring muscle strength and flexibility of involved tissue.
