Guiding principles
The understanding of movement, and the detection and treatment of primary deficits of movement on the whole range from competive sports to rehabilitation is the key component of successful and sustainable diagnosis and treatment. The assessment of a movement with respect to its individual normality is more important than the accordance with a normative exercise.
