Influence of Thoracolumbar Proprioceptive Support in the Segmental Stabilization Training

Phase 1

Completed

• Conditions: Transversus Abdominis Activation
• Interventions: Other: Segmental trunk exercise; Other: Segmental trunk exercise associated with proprioception

• Registration Number: NCT01481857
• Lead Sponsor: Universidade Federal do Piauí

Brief Summary

Proprioceptive training has been shown to be effective in increasing the efficiency of motor-sensory tissues that stabilize the trunk. The investigators hypothesis is that proprioceptive support do influence in the activation of the transversus abdominis muscle (TrA) during segmental stabilization training.
