Abstract

The purpose of this article present the mechanisms that stabilize the lumbar spine. The passive and active control systems are discussed. Principles are also presented for conducting exercises oriented towards improving the function of the so-called “local muscles”, which are responsible for maintaining the proper positioning of each vertebra relative to the others. This feed-forward mechanism protects the locomotor system from dangerous overload in both static and dynamic conditions.

Key words:
kinesitherapy, locomotor system, stabilization mechanisms
