The notes of Dr. Tzav

It takes us about a year to learn to walk. It takes us about four years to learn to walk perfect. It can be ruinned within seconds to minutes. By stroke, brain injury. It can be ruinned before we start by cerebral palsy. It can be ruinned by dozens of years before we become "elederly fallers". Why we move? Where? How? What for? With whome?

Locomotion

We should know what we are talking about. We are talking about function and the important function for this blog is locomotion, meaning the one's possibility to move himself from one place to another. Walking is the way of locomotion of the particular interest in rehabilitation, though there are other types of human locomotion: running, crawling, climbing, swimming, and even, may be, flying.
