This is the most comprehensive and up-to-date account of the control of vertebrate head movements and its biomechanical and neural basis. It covers the entire spectrum of research on head-neck movements, ranging from the global description and analysis of a particular behavior to its underlying mechanisms at the level of neurotransmitter release and membrane biophysics.

With contributors from various scientific disciplines, this volume surveys key topics in the study of head motor control, stressing the structure and function of neck muscles and neural pathways. It covers psychophysical and clinical aspects of head movement, compensatory control of head position, and strategies for volitional and orienting behaviors. The book presents a comprehensive view of head movement as a unique and complex motor system.

Despite the intensive experimental and theoretical studies for over a century, the general processes involved in neural control of pasture and movement, in learning of motor behaviour in healthy subjects and in adaptation in pathology were and remain a challenging problems for the scientists in the field of sensorimotor control. The book is the outcome of the Advanced Research Workshop Sensorimotor Control, where the focus was on the state and the perspectives of the study in the field.

A textbook and practical clinical handbook for all students and practitioners concerned with the evaluation, diagnosis, assessment and management of neck pain and cervical headache particularly in relation to whiplash. It is likely to become essential study for final year physiotherapy and chiropractic students, for all manipulative physiotherapy MSc students and a widely used clinical ref text for all involved in the assessment and management of whiplash and related neck and head pain. ? This book presents the applied sciences, clinical assessment methods and rehabilitation protocols for the management of persons with neck pain. ? The material presented in this book represents the translation of research into clinical practice and provides a systematic approach to assessment and an evidence base for conservative clinical management strategies for neck pain. ? Unique topics in this book include: . Provides an understanding of the pathophysiological processes in the sensory, motor and sensorimotor systems and how they present in patients with neck pain disorders. . Presents multimodal approaches to management of neck pain guided by the evidence of presenting dysfunctions . Presents a comprehensive description of a therapeutic exercise approach based on motor control which has proven efficacy.

Neck muscles have a high density of sensory receptors which project to the central nervous system, and have important role in sensory motor integration (SMI). The cerebellum is important for SMI and it is known to undergo neuroplastic changes in response to performing a novel motor acquisition task. Alterations in neck sensory input impacts motor output to upper limb muscles, cerebellar disinhibition, and performance accuracy in response to novel motor acquisition. Despite this, the impact of cervical extensor muscle (CEM) fatigue on cerebellar-motor cortex plasticity and SMI pathways in response to a novel motor acquisition task has not been yet investigated. Study one used short latency somatosensory evoked potentials (SEPs) to investigate the differential effects of CEM fatigue on motor learning and retention; and on sensorimotor processing from distal hand muscles. CEM fatigue impaired upper limb motor learning performance in conjunction with differential changes in SEP peak amplitudes related to SMI. Study two used a paired pulse cerebellar-motor cortex transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) technique to determine whether CEM fatigue alters cerebellar disinhibition in response to novel motor skill acquisition. Neck fatigue led to a lessened capacity for cerebellar disinhibition coupled with diminished motor learning relative to a control group. Study three used an eye-hand tracking protocol to investigate the effect of CEM fatigue on accuracy of pointing to both visual and hidden targets. CEM fatigue reduced the accuracy of upper limb tracking to a hidden target. Study four used short- and medium-latency SEPs to determine the impact of CEM fatigue on motor performance accuracy and retention of proximal upper limb muscles, as well as neural processing changes in response to novel motor acquisition using proximal upper limbs muscles. CEM fatigue had minimal impact on proximal upper-limb motor performance accuracy, but lead to differential changes in both short- and medium- latency SEP peak amplitudes related to SMI. Overall, this thesis suggesting that SMI areas including the cerebellum are impacted by CEM fatigue, likely because the altered afferent input from the neck due to fatigue alters body schema, impacting awareness of upper limb position sense, resulting in decreased upper limb performance accuracy.

Studies of human movement have proliferated in recent years, and there have been many studies of spinal pathways in humans, their role in movement, and their dysfunction in neurological disorders. This comprehensive reference surveys the literature related to the control of spinal cord circuits in human subjects, showing how they can be studied, their role in normal movement, and how they malfunction in disease states. Chapters are highly illustrated and consistently organised, reviewing, for each pathway, the experimental background, methodology, organisation and control, role during motor tasks, and changes in patients with CNS lesions. Each chapter concludes with a helpful resume that can be used independently of the main text to provide practical guidance for clinical studies. This will be essential reading for research workers and clinicians involved in the study, treatment and rehabilitation of movement disorders.
