AHHPS-L1 – Week 02 – Activation Day 1
AHHPS - Foot Activation Block
Warm-Up Blocks
AHHPS - Foot Activation Block
Horizontal Loading
This Block is intended to be used to up-regulate the system by:
1- Influencing 'Fluid Dynamics' (blood, water, lymph) to properly set the tissue conditions for loading and/or recovery
2- Stimulating 'Small Motor Unit Recruitment' (SMUR) to up-regulate type 1 motor units for optimal arthrokinematic (i.e. joint movement) and joint centration (i.e. having the joint be at the right place, at the right time)
3- Up-regulate 'Excitation' to up and down regulate motor units to increase contraction sensitivity
4- Provide sensory-motor 'Stimulation' for eyes, ears (vestibular), and tactile proprioception to bath the system with sensory inputs
