Some health problems are associated with the pathology of the spinal column, in which the spinal cord is located, which controls the functioning of internal organs. In the pathology of the spine, compression of the spinal nerves occurs, as a result of which the body as a whole may suffer. Therefore, it is so important to take care of the health of the spine. Massage and other types of external therapeutic influences are also useful, but can only eliminate the symptoms and provide temporary relief.
In the classroom, you will learn how to perform, which will systemically affect the body as a whole and help eliminate the cause of the problem.
In kung fu, the force of the blow is directly related to the stretching of the tendons. Accordingly, stretching the muscles and tendons, as an essential component of kung fu training, is a significant step towards health.

Coxarthrosis is a dystrophic change in cartilage hip joint, as a result of which the normal functioning of the articular apparatus is disrupted. There is a certain complex of treatment of this pathology at different stages of its development, including medicines, apparatus physiotherapy, and surgical methods.
Therapeutic exercises for coxarthrosis of the hip joint is also an integral part of the recovery process. With the help of special exercises, you can speed up the metabolic processes in the cartilage tissue, strengthen the muscles and ligaments that support the articular apparatus, and relieve pain symptoms.
Basic principles
Gymnastics in coxarthrosis of the hip joint differs significantly from the complex of physical exercises for healthy people. There is no high-dynamic load on the joint. The task is to strengthen and stretch the muscles and ligaments with the help of static exercises. There are several rules, not adhering to which, you can not only not achieve positive dynamics, but, on the contrary, aggravate the disease:
- A set of exercises should correspond to the degree of development of the disease, each of which has its own symptoms.
- Classes always begin with a high-quality warm-up of the periarticular muscles: a warm bath, self-massage.
- Exercises for coxarthrosis should be performed regularly in accordance with the prescribed scheme.
- During execution, there should be no discomfort in the joint area. Pain symptoms are a signal to stop.
- Exercises with axial load on the joint (for example, walking) are contraindicated.
Types of physiotherapy exercises
Exercise therapy for coxarthrosis of the hip joint includes the following components:
- swimming;
- medical simulators;
- physical Culture.
Swimming harmoniously affects all muscle groups, gently developing the joints. In the pool, holding on to the side, you can perform the following exercises: information-breeding, pulling up the legs, "bicycle". Water resistance will create the necessary load and ensure smooth performance. It is swimming and water activities that are prescribed primarily for diseases of the joints.
For the prevention and treatment of DISEASES OF THE JOINTS, our regular reader uses the method of non-surgical treatment, which is gaining popularity, recommended by leading German and Israeli orthopedists. After carefully reviewing it, we decided to offer it to your attention.
Many foreign and Russian doctors, including the famous doctor Bubnovsky, categorically do not recommend an exercise bike or a bicycle because of the compression on the joints. Only after endoprosthesis replacement can be dosed to strengthen the muscles. Walking on a treadmill is also undesirable.
Yoga with coxarthrosis of 1 and 2 degrees strengthens and stretches muscles and ligaments well, improves blood circulation. The main thing is to choose the right exercises. For example:
- sitting on the floor, spread your legs apart (without tension), and try to reach the foot with your fingertips. But without jerks, but gently and gradually;
- sitting on the floor, one leg is extended forward, the other is taken away, bent at the knee and pull the foot to the thigh of the straight leg. Pain symptoms are unacceptable.
Physiotherapy exercises for coxarthrosis currently has many different methods. The most popular programs are Dr. Gitt, Evdokimenko and Bubnovsky.
Gymnastics Gitt
Vitaliy Gitt is a well-known chiropractor. The complex developed by him, based on micromovements, has been successfully used for more than 15 years to restore the mobility of the affected joints, even with a highly developed pathology.
The exercises that Dr. Gitt suggests are performed repeatedly, measuredly, for a long time, the amplitude of movement is only 2-3 cm. Some of them can be performed while reading a book or working at a computer. Vitaly Gitt explains this technique by the fact that the joint needs very little fluid for good nutrition, but it must be produced constantly. At large amplitudes, the production is more active, but the substance does not have time to be absorbed by the joints. This is why Gitt exercises, while simple, require patience and time. Suitable for grades 1, 2 and 3 of coxarthrosis, without aggravating pain symptoms. Many patients confirm that Dr. Gitt's gymnastics is truly healing, and no additional equipment is needed.
A set of exercises for the treatment of coxarthrosis by Dr. Gitt:
- Lying on the stomach, arms under the head or along the body, feet on a small roller, the body is relaxed. Rolls are made from side to side with a small amplitude. Do not tense your muscles or lift your pelvis. Gitt recommends doing this exercise three times a day for 10 minutes. Moreover, it is suitable even for a severe degree of coxarthrosis.
- Lying on your back. Legs slightly apart, each (without bending) turn left and right by 1 cm.
- Sitting on a chair, knees slightly apart, feet on the floor. Movement of the knees apart-together with an amplitude of not more than 1 cm.
- A healthy leg stands on a raised platform, the patient sways left and right, back and forth. It is performed 2-3 times a day from 5 to 10 minutes.
Dr. Gitt advises exercising 3 to 6 hours a day. The result will be only after hard training.
Vitaliy Gitt has developed special simulators in the form of vibrating couches that force all joints to work, making quick micro-movements, as a result of which synovial fluid production is activated, but without any load on the joint. Similar devices Gitt uses for patients with serious injuries.
In addition to exercise, Dr. Gitt devotes Special attention nutrition: the less protein in the diet, the healthier joints. Because, in his opinion, an excess of protein products triggers autoimmune processes in the body.
Pain symptoms during classes according to the Gitt system are not allowed. You should either choose a comfortable position, or reduce the amplitude.
Evdokimenko method
Exercises for coxarthrosis according to the system of rheumatologist Pavel Evdokimenko are based on strengthening and stretching muscles without stress on the joint.
Combined exercises according to the Evdokimenko method are performed on each leg, first in a static version - a single lift and a long hold, and then in a dynamic one - lift and hold for 1-2 seconds, slow lowering. Dynamic options are repeated 10-12 times.
Daily combined complex:
- From a prone position, one leg slowly rises 15 cm and is held for 15-20 seconds. Also the second. Then dynamic repetitions.
- From a prone position, one leg, bent at a right angle, rises 10-15 cm from the floor, holds for 30-40 seconds and slowly lowers.
- Lying on your back, bend your knees and slightly spread apart. Feet on the floor, arms extended along the body. Perform a pelvic lift, leaning on your shoulders. "Hang" for 30-40 seconds, slowly lower. Then the dynamic option. Dr. Evdokimenko recommends this exercise only for 1-2 degrees of coxarthrosis.
Dynamic complex:
- Lying on your stomach, arms along the body. Straight legs rise 15 cm from the floor, smoothly spread apart and come down, fall down. 8-10 repetitions are performed.
- Lying on your side, bend the supporting leg at the knee, lift the other leg up 45 degrees, hold for 30 seconds, slowly lower. Repeat 2-3 times.
- Lying on your back, raise one straightened leg by 30-40 degrees, turn it completely from the hip inward on weight, then turn it outward. Do 10-15 turns and lower.
Bubnovsky system
In the kinesitherapy centers of Dr. Bubnovsky, after undergoing myofascial diagnostics, an individual joint recovery program is developed for the patient. At the same time, author's multifunctional simulators are used. Dr. Bubnovsky, himself a hip arthroplasty, urges his patients to move away from medical support in favor of movement and muscle strengthening. The drugs only relieve the symptoms, and only through daily exercises, overcoming the pain, can a person heal the joints.
"Home" complex of Dr. Bubnovsky for the treatment of coxarthrosis of 1 and 2 degrees (repeat all exercises 10-20 times, starting position - lying on your back):
- Bend the leg at the knee and pull it to the stomach. Hold for 3-4 seconds.
- Arms extended along the body, palms down. One leg is straightened, the second is made repulsive movements, the leg is straightened parallel to the floor, without falling on it, while the toe is pulled towards itself.
- Bend your knees and spread apart, feet on the floor. Without lifting the pelvis, tilt the knee inward, trying to touch the floor.
- Legs bent at the knees spread apart. Perform a pelvic lift by tensing the gluteal muscles.
The Bubnovsky system is designed for classes in centers under the supervision of a coach.
Studying the methods of various authors, whether it be Gitt or Bubnovsky, a person suffering from coxarthrosis should be guided by only one principle - “do no harm”. Physical exercises are really able to restore joint mobility, but only under professional medical supervision.
Baker's cyst (Becker, popliteal hernia) is a benign tumor in the knee joint.
Anatomy knee joint is such that in the popliteal region between the tendons of the gastrocnemius and semimembranosus muscles there is an intertendon bag.
Because of the strong physical activity, joint injury, or due to diseases such as arthritis or arthrosis of the knee, an inflammatory process occurs in the knee joint.
Inflammation provokes the accumulation of joint fluid in the intertendon bag. A bulge may form on the back of the joint. The collected excess fluid presses on the nerve endings, which leads to painful sensations. Such an education makes it difficult for the joint to work and it is very difficult for a person to move around.
At the first painful symptoms, you should consult a doctor and start receiving qualified help. There are several methods of treating popliteal fossa cysts, which are divided into:
- medication (conservative);
- surgical (operative);
- folk.
Let us consider in more detail each method of treating Becker's cyst, its advantages and disadvantages.
Treatment Methods
Medical (conservative) methods of treatment
It is believed that the drug treatment of this disease is not effective. Most often, medications are prescribed by a doctor after surgery or to prepare for surgical intervention. The doctor can only prescribe drugs that will relieve the inflammatory process and pain - various non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.
These can be tablets, ointments, physiotherapy, compresses, drug blockades (an injection directly into the joint with hormonal drug). However, if this formation is not removed, it will subsequently lead to a relapse.
Surgical (operative) method of treatment
Puncture
Becker's cyst puncture is one of the methods of surgical treatment of this disease. This cannot be called an operation in the full sense of the word; rather, the word “manipulation” is more suitable here.
With the help of a thick needle, the fluid in the popliteal cup is aspirated. After that, steroid (hormonal) anti-inflammatory drugs (kenalog, diprospan, hydrocortisone, etc.) are injected into the intertendon bag.
Temporarily, this method of treating a cyst of the popliteal joint gives a result. However, over time, under load, this cavity in the area of the popliteal cup will again be filled with joint fluid, which will lead to the need to repeat the puncture of the cyst. It is also believed that the "old" cyst is not amenable to conservative treatment, so surgery is prescribed immediately.
Removal of a cyst
Surgery is considered the most effective method treatment of the disease. The operation takes no more than 20 minutes. Under local anesthesia, the cyst is removed and stitched in the neck area. After 7-10 days, the stitches will be removed and the patient will be discharged from the hospital.
Folk methods of treatment
The folk way to treat a cyst of the popliteal bursa is very common and popular. It is believed that on early stage Can a cyst be treated with traditional medicine. There are several of the most common recipes that are used to relieve the inflammatory process.
1) Golden mustache treatment
It is necessary to grow a large number of golden whiskers. Then prepare two three-liter jars and fill them up to the shoulders with finely chopped leaves, the mustache itself and the stems of the golden mustache. Then fill them completely with vodka and put in a dark room for 21 days. Then squeeze the resulting tincture and place it in the refrigerator.
From the pomace daily at night, it is necessary to make compresses on the knee. Place the pomace in a piece of gauze, put it on top and under the knee, wrap it with a plastic bag and a woolen cloth. Daily take the tincture inside several sips 2-3 times a day. This helped to completely get rid of the Baker's cyst in the popliteal cup the size of a chicken egg (HLS 2009, No. 14, p. 33).
2) Treatment with burdock and celandine
Make compresses from finely chopped fresh leaves of celandine and burdock (possibly chopped with a meat grinder). At night, put crushed leaves on your knee and wrap with a plastic bag and a woolen scarf. In winter, you can make compresses from steamed celandine leaves.
However, it is worth being careful enough with the use of traditional medicine recipes. If it helped one person, this does not guarantee that it will be effective for another person.
It is important to consider that this tumor-like formation is not cured so easily with the help of herbal compresses. They can only relieve inflammation and pain. Therefore, it is better to immediately contact a surgeon for qualified help.
