Sentences with word «autogenic»

A practical example of autogenic inhibition is observed during static stretching.

SMR is based on the principal of autogenic inhibition.

Other biofeedback techniques use an EMG (electromyograph) to measure muscle tension (in the forehead, for instance) or silently repeated phrases — such as «My eyes are quiet» — to help you relax (called autogenic training).

It is thought that applying direct sustained pressure to a tight area can inhibit the tension in a muscle by stimulating the GTO to bring about autogenic inhibition.

The thought is that the more the muscle can be relaxed through autogenic inhibition and reciprocal inhibition, the more the muscle can be lengthened, and the greater the flexibility gains (Haff 2006).

The proposed mechanisms of PNF stretching involve two neurophysiological phenomena referred to as autogenic inhibition and reciprocal inhibition (Sharman, Cresswell & Riek 2006).

Thus, in the contract phase of the contract - relax PNF stretch, the target muscle is contracted, which elicits autogenic inhibition.

Rist is informed here by autogenic training, a psychiatric technique developed by Johannes Heinrich Schultz in 1932 in which the participant views a series of images from a particular physical position in order to induce relaxation.

Here, the ambiguous line of joinery deconstructs architecture as the fixed order that governs space, violently pressing against the chaotic, autogenic nature of marginalized communities, creating a visual representation of regeneration of space, the dialectic of creation and un-creation.

This reflex is called autogenic inhibition.

Rist draws on principles of Autogenic Training to facilitate a process of relaxation, a technique developed in 1932 by the German psychiatrist Johannes Heinrich Schultz.

You may or may not have ever heard of autogenic inhibition but this is the underlying principle at work here with foam rolling.

Preventing stress disorders by holistic approaches, including meditation, autogenic training, and biofeedback.

Evaluates a variety of stress - reduction methods including transcendental meditation, autogenic training, progressive relaxation, Zen, and yoga approaches to meditation.

(26) They include Wilhelm Reich's orgone therapy; Alexander Lowen's bioenergetics; Ira Rolf's structural integration (called «Rolfing»); Arthur Janov's primal therapy; autogenic training, a deep relaxation method; sensory awareness methods; dance and movement therapies; and such Eastern body disciplines as t» ai - chi, Aikido Zen awareness training, and hatha yoga.

Proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) stretching works because it makes use of autogenic and reciprocal inhibition.

Autogenic Inhibition: The process by which neural impulses that sense tension are greater than the impulses that cause muscles to contract, providing an inhibitory effect to the muscle spindles.

Autogenic inhibition, (aka «reverse myotatic reflex») refers to a reduction (or inhibition) in excitability of a contracting muscle.

In a contemporary review article, Gordon Chalmers (2004) argues that the historical explanation of autogenic and reciprocal inhibition is convenient, but research in recent decades denotes that a much more complex neuromuscular response is in play.

Autogenic Training involves a repeated set of visualisations, practised in recommended postures (including lying down), which are intended to alleviate stress.

Rist also based her video on principles of relaxation techniques such as that of autogenic training and psychotherapy.

These skills included meditation, guided imagery, breathing techniques, autogenic training, biofeedback, genograms, and self - expression through drawings and movement.
