Mat activity
Practical application of the principles for use of developmental activities requires proper physical facilities.
A gymnasium mat should be firm, smooth, and plaint enough to be comfortable.
Mat activity
A mat surface should be large enough to accommodate the patient.
For adult, a useful size is 6 feet by 8 feet where as for child, 4 feet by 6 feet .
Mat activity
Advantages of motor activity in a gymnasium.Element of security for patients who are fearful
of falling.Total pattern of movement may be performed
without limitation.Postural and righting reflexes may be induced
more effectively. indirect influence, Learning from others,
motivation, and socialization which may enhance performance.
Mat activityThe component patterns within the total movement or posture must be identified throughout neck, trunk, and extremities.
A total pattern of movement and each component pattern have a point of initiation(lengthened range), a range of movement( middle range), and a point of
completion (shortened range)
Mat activity
A total movement may take several directions, such as forward, backward, sideway, or turning in a circle.
As direction is changed, the component patterns and components of motion change accordingly.(example, flexor and extensor dominance)
Mat activity
Techniques of PNF may be applied to each total pattern of movement .
The goals of PNF are:
• Strength the weaker muscles (through maximal resistance)
• Maintain balance• Increase range of motion
