Biomechanics of rehabilitation

Joseph P Weigel et al. Vet Clin North Am Small Anim Pract. 2005 Nov.

Abstract

The biomechanics of motion and rehabilitation are complex, with many tissue types and structures involved. In addition, consideration must be given to the stage of tissue healing with some injuries, such as fractures.A more thorough knowledge of some of the infrequently discussed biomechanical aspects of musculoskeletal tissues and motion during rehabilitation, combined with known features of tissue recovery, should enhance the development of rehabilitation programs for patients.
