Slacklininq for Lower Extremity Rehabilitation and Injury Prevention

摘要

Slacklining recently was brought to the attention of a mass audience during the 2012 Super Bowl halftime show.8 Slacklining primarily has been viewed as a leisure activity, but it has been used as a novel means to facilitate improvements in balance and proprioception.9 Athletic trainers and therapists (ATs) should monitor a patient's progression through the sequential stages of motor learning, from the novice to the accomplished stage, when using slacklining in a clinical setting. Standardization of the methods used to promote the motor learning process can promote the safe and effective use of slacklining as a rehabilitation activity.
