Comparison Interventions on Kinetic and Kinematic Parameters

Comparison of Selected Physiotherapeutic Interventions on Kinetic and Kinematic Parameters in Young Soccer Players

Currently, it is difficult to find studies in the literature comparing proprioception exercises with the effect of manual therapy on improving balance, and in the long run it may translate into improved activity, functionality and injury prevention in athletes, when planning training or therapy, e.g. in patients after ankle sprains.
