or no function in one hand or other upper extremity disabilities causing limited grasp or hand strength. It is used for cleaning fingernails and toenails and can also be used to wash a person’s feet. This one handed device will suction to any flat, smooth surface such as; a bath tub, shower stall, bedside table, or bathroom sink or counter. Therapeutic use/benefits: Keeping your hands clean is crucial to good health. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, norovirus is…

Powerlifting, Strongmen, Body Builders, all of which are built around the ability of using a barbell. There are at least over 30 different kinds of movement with the barbell, which all stemmed from different thoughts and ideas at how to isolate different muscles. Which why I believe that John Dewey’s cognitive theory is a direct example of how art can express more and more thoughts or idea on how to get different uses out of a single piece of art. The barbell has proven that time and time…

How good is the omega-3 Lose weight, get fewer wrinkles and avoid damage! Other positive effects of omega-3 and take advantage of our tips on how you consume omega-3 diet. Sharpen brain All body cells are encapsulated behind a thin cell wall. Omega-3 fatty acids make the cell wall more smoothly, so that the cell can more easily receive and transmit signals from other brain cells. Inside the cell slides impulses easier. Lowers blood pressure Blood vessel walls become more elastic. When the…

Muscles in a way are the most important parts of the body. If we didn’t have muscles it would be impossible to move around, and do things. Muscles make everything we do possible, but there is more to muscles than meets the eye. Yes there are the kinds of muscles which allow us to walk and pick up things, but there are also different kinds of muscles which if anything are equally important. Before we dive into the kinds of muscles and their functions, let’s get a better idea of how muscles work.…

quadriceps muscle. It does so to prevent damage to the muscle and ultimately the maintain homeostasis. There are a series of steps that lead to the initiation of the response. The process starts with a message, known as a neural impulse, that is sent and delivered to the central nervous system. The overall pathway that the neural impulse travels is often called the reflex arc and it includes several key…

The muscle has amazing cells structures in the body. Because every part of our body acts as a working machine all organs of the body are equally significant. The skeletal muscle in the body is a very important portion of the body. When people think of muscles, they usually think first of voluntary movement, but that is only part of the story. Muscles are literally everywhere in the body. Throughout the body, there are muscles in the eye, heart, limbs, tongue, throat,…

The ability for muscles to contract and shorten to produce movement lies within its structure at a cellular level. The muscle organ is surrounded by a fibrous connective tissue called the epimysium, continuous to the perimysium, which separates the organ into small bundles called fascicles. Each fascicle can be further separated into muscle fibers by the endomysium. The plasma membrane of an individual muscle fiber is called the sarcolemma, which plays a major role in generating an action along…

Introduction Key feature of our independence in performing daily activities as human beings is mobility, which is the ability to independently and safely move oneself from one place to another. There are so many tasks and activities that integrate with mobility such as: the ability to stand up from a bed or chair, to walk or run, and to navigate through often quite complex environments. Our mobility incorporates with gait speed to complete our activities in a certain time. If a person can…

Dogs to Humans Humans and dogs are similar in many different ways, one way is that they have similar muscular systems. We humans have some similar muscles as dogs like, gluteal muscle, biceps, latissimus dorsi, trapezius, deltoid, and the external oblique. The different muscles are used by dogs and humans in pretty much the same sense so they can run, walk, and jump. The dog’s muscular system is one of the biggest systems in their body. There are two important functions of the muscular system…

work. Some muscles are autonomous, or work by themselves, while others are controlled by the nervous system. Four tissues/organs of the muscular system are cardiac muscle, skeletal muscle, smooth muscle and the heart. Cardiac muscle is they type of muscle that makes up the heart and is autonomous. The heart is a muscle that is crucial to survival. Smooth muscle lines the inner digestive tract. It contracts to allow food to proceed down the digestive tract. This type of muscle is also…
