Biomechanics of the spine

Abstract

The relevance of considering this issue for the specialty “Therapy and Rehabilitation” is quite high today. Understanding biomechanics makes it possible to correctly interpret the etiology and pathogen esis of such problematic spinal conditions as osteochondrosis, scoliosis, intervertebral hernias, and chronic low back pain, which are becoming more widespread due to a sedentary lifestyle. The aim of the study is to examine the patterns of movement, loading, and stabilization of the spine in order to achieve a deeper understanding of the diagnosis, prevention, and subsequent rehabilitation of disorders of the musculoskeletal system.
