Purpose : arious studies effects of mental practice. However, there is a lack of research on the effects of practice on postur alignment. Therefore this study to the effect of ankle exercise combined with mental practice on postural alignment of legs.
Method : ubjects were randomly assigned to mental practice group (experimental group n=15) general exercise group (control group n=15). Posturalalignmentwasthe hip, knee, and ankle joints. When viewed from the side, an arbitrary point in front of the malleolus makes a straight line with the plumb line. Exercise was performed a week for weeks. Exercise programs included muscle strengthening, relaxation, and proprioception exercise. The experimental group mental practice.
Result : Bothgroups showed significant differences in postur alignmentankle joint, knee joint, and hip joint. In particular, the experimental group showed a larger change than the control group. However, significant difference in postural alignment change only the knee joint(p<0.05), and there was no significant difference the hip joint(experimental group=0.77±0.81, control group=0.87±1.13)and ankle joint(experimental group=0.52±0.63, control group=0.48±0.41).
Conclusion : This study suggests that mental practice is effective as an exercise method postur alignment. Mental practice also expected to be musculoskeletal disorders. Therefore, additional studies should be conducted to verify the effect of mental practice on the alignment of various parts.
