Pelvifemoral Rhythm- Integrated Function at Hip ( SIMPLIFIED)

The integrated function at hip complex is discussed in a simplified practical oriented approach. The PELVIFEMORAL MOTION OR PELVIFEMORAL RHYTHM which is an integrated function is illustrated using daily life examples.The integrated function of Pelvis, Femur results in increased range of motion at hip which otherwise would have been impossible to achieve with isolated segments motions.
Detailed description of possibilities of both movements ( open chain kinetic and closed chain kinetics)at hip complex is addressed within.The main aim of closed chain at hip is to maintain the position of head over trunk. Examples are correlated with the motion of pelvis on fixed femur such as ANTERIOR POSTERIOR PELVIC TILT, LATERAL PELVIC TILT, ANTERIOR AND POSTERIOR ROTATION OR FORWARD AND BACKWARD ROTATION OF PELVIS.For more details stay tuned with the lecture.
