Abstract

The important points of motion analysis in basic movements are as follows. The movements of simple joints should not be observed alone, but together with the movements of several joints that participate in the basic movement. Next, basic movements should be expressed as anatomical and kinematic data. Furthermore, to clarify problems such as impairment disorders, whether characteristic movements are needed for performance of basic movements needs to be determined. If these goals are definitively accomplished, then the appropriate timing of physical therapy can be accurately determined. In this report, the importance of motor analysis in the field of physical therapy is reconfirmed.
