Product Description

 The key to treating and preventing musculoskeletal dysfunctions lies in the "Coordinated Distribution Theory." In many cases, the root cause of tissue damage and symptom development is abnormal or excessive mechanical stress concentrated in a specific area. Addressing this underlying imbalance is essential to effective intervention.

 This book focuses on the evaluation and treatment of hip impairments, exploring the hip as a complex and fascinating joint that closely interacts with the spine, knee, and foot/ankle. It offers valuable insights not only for specialists and researchers working with hip disorders but also for all clinicians involved in managing musculoskeletal conditions.

The table of contents

  • Section1　Morphology and positional relationship between the femur and the acetabulum“congruent plane of the hip joint”
  • Section2　Coordination and distribution among the femur, acetabulum(pelvis), and spine“coordinated distribution theory”
Chapter II　Coordination and Distribution in the Hip Joint from the Perspective of Passive Stabilization Mechanisms (capsular ligament and labrum)
  • Section1　Coordination and distribution in the capsular ligament and labrum“role of the joint capsular ligament”
  • Section2　Coordination and distribution among the bone, capsular ligament,and labrum“compensation and impairment of soft tissues caused by bone morphological abnormalities”
Chapter III　Coordination and Distribution in the Hip Joint from the Perspective of Active Stabilization Mechanisms
  • Section1　Neutral position of the hip joint “neutral position and its functional significance”
  • Section2　Action of the hip joint muscles “physiological cross-sectional area and moment arm”
  • Section3　Change of the actions of the hip muscles with positional change “positional relationship
  • Section4　Structure and Function of the iliocapsularis “contribution to joint stabilization”
  • Section5　Coordination and Distribution Among Hip Muscles “short-length isometric exercise”
  • Section6　Coordination and distribution between passive and active stabilization systems “attachment between capsular ligaments and muscles”
  • Section7　Function of deep hip muscles “as stabilizers and sensors”
  • Section8　The influence of bone morphology on hip muscles “shapes of the femur and pelvis alter muscle moment arms”

Chapter V　Coordination and Distribution in Posture from the Perspective of the Hip Joint
  • Section1　Roles of the hip joint in standing “coordination between the hips and as a connection between the upper and lower body”
  • Section2　The hip joint and the gravity line “the positional relationship between the hip joint center and the gravity line”
  • Section3　Coordination and distribution in the hip in standing “behavior of passive/active composite stabilization mechanism”
  • Section4　Coordination and distribution among the hip and lower limb, pelvis, and spine in standing “center of gravity and the 9th thoracic vertebra as anchor and two-point rotation control”
  • Section5　Changes in standing posture owing to hip diseases/disorders “coordination and distribution within the pelvis and spine”
  • Section6　Coordination and distribution among the hip, pelvis, and spine in movement from standing “rhythm among the hips, pelvis, and spine”
  • Section7　Standing posture and spinal flexibility and progression of hip OA “disease progression caused by stress concentration”
