Entrenamiento centrado en la musculatura cervical profunda en prevención del dolor de cuello
Palabras clave:
Prevención, semiespinosos cervicales, largo del cuello, largo de la cabeza, fuerza isométricaResumen
El objetivo del estudio fue crear un programa de entrenamiento de la musculatura cervical profunda, para orientar a los profesionales de la actividad física y del deporte en el trabajo con ella.
Hay muy pocas pautas relacionadas con el trabajo de ésta, al mismo tiempo que la literatura científica nos muestra su estrecha relación con el dolor cervical.
Por ello, se utilizan las investigaciones previas para crear un programa de entrenamiento centrado en la musculatura cervical profunda. Así como sus correspondientes métodos de evaluación, entre los que se incluye un nuevo test de extensión cervical con el que se pretende conseguir una valoración de la fuerza y la resistencia más adecuada.
Finalmente se presenta un estudio de caso de una mujer sin dolor cervical, pero con factores de riesgo asociados, que sigue el programa como forma de prevención, mostrando un claro progreso tras la finalización de este.
