Kinesthetic

Kinesthetics, the theory of the sensation of movement, is to be assigned to practice-oriented empirical sciences. Since its creation in the early 1970s at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, kinesthetics has been widely used in health care and nursing.

Kinesthetics or kinaesthetics refers to the teaching and / or application of the ability to achieve a more conscious sensation of movement through increased awareness and to use information from the kinesthetic sensory system via the receptors of the musculoskeletal system specifically for effective movement design and adaptation.

The proprioceptors of the musculoskeletal system are used as a successful organ for effective movement execution. Delimitation is the term kinaesthetics of applied kinesiology, an alternative medical diagnosis and action concept, which was developed by other persons under other basic assumptions and which attempts to use muscular reactions for holistic diagnosis (see kinesiological muscle test).
