Conceptualizing movement by expert Bobath instructors in neurological rehabilitation.
Julie Vaughan-GrahamKara PattersonKarl ZabjekCheryl A CottPublished in: Journal of evaluation in clinical practice (2017)
The IBITA instructors conceptualize movement from a person-centred perspective. The integration of postural control and selective movement, with alignment and variability as key components, forms the foundation of their understanding of movement. Further investigation into the role of postural control in movement recovery post central nervous system lesion is required. Likewise, the dimensions of movement critical to the conceptualization of movement are not well understood from the perspective of the physiotherapist or persons with neurological impairments.
