reciprocal inhibition

Reciprocal Inhibition, however, can backfire by both muscles attempting to contract at the same time.

Reciprocal inhibition technique takes advantage of the neurological mechanism that exists naturally.

The term reciprocal inhibition has also been used in psychology by Joseph Wolpe et al.

Depolarization of the membrane causes it to contract while reciprocal inhibition is now applied to the left side.

Through Reciprocal Inhibition, the tight muscle is relaxed, and allowed to lengthen.

Wolpe's use of reciprocal inhibition led to his discovery of systematic desensitization.

This neural phenomenon is called reciprocal inhibition.

Reciprocal inhibition is a synonym.

After his experiments in the laboratory he applied reciprocal inhibition to his clients in the form of assertiveness training.

Reciprocal inhibition involves locating specific muscles that are in spasm and then actively contracting the opposing muscle groups.

Reciprocal inhibition can be defined as anxiety being inhibited by a feeling or response that is not compatible with the feeling of anxiety.

Psychotherapy by Reciprocal Inhibition.

While the Lamprey is bent to the left, there is reciprocal inhibition on the right side causing it to relax due to hyperpolarization.

In Wolpe's search for a more effective way in treating anxiety he developed different reciprocal inhibition techniques, utilizing assertiveness training.

When the hip adductors are tight or hypertonic, their antagonist (gluteus medius) may experience reciprocal inhibition.

Reciprocal inhibition - While agonist muscles contract, contraction of the opposing antagonist muscles is inhibited.

Wolpe is most well known for his Reciprocal Inhibition techniques and Systematic Desensitization, which revolutionized behavioral therapy.

Reciprocal inhibition describes muscles on one side of a joint relaxing to accommodate contraction on the other side of that joint.

Muscles affected by UMNS frequently are limited by weakness, loss of reciprocal inhibition, decreased movement control and hypertonicity (including spasticity).

A major cause for inactive gluteals is unwanted reciprocal inhibition from overactive hip flexors (psoas major, iliacus, and rectus femoris).

Al-Balkhi also introduced the concept of reciprocal inhibition (al-ilaj bi al-did), which was re-introduced over a thousand years later by Joseph Wolpe in 1969.

Furthermore, Wolpe was a prolific writer, some of his most famous books include, The Practice of Behavior Therapy and Psychotherapy by Reciprocal Inhibition.

It said his writings, which were influential, included two textbooks that had become classics, "Psychotherapy by Reciprocal Inhibition" (Stanford, 1958) and "The Practice of Behavior Therapy" (Allyn, 1969).

Joseph Wolpe originally explored the use of assertiveness as a means of "reciprocal inhibition" of anxiety, in his 1958 book on treating neurosis; and it has since been commonly employed as an intervention in behavior therapy.

This "recurrent facilitation" causes reduced inhibition of the reciprocal inhibition of the Ia interneuron of the antagonist group (Baret et al.; 2003), which may in turn also be inhibited by signals from the corticospinal tract.
