Title: Change in blood flow to m. biceps femoris when applying compression therapy Objectives: The primary objective of this thesis is to investigate the changes in blood flow to m. biceps femoris when applying tissue flossing technique. Another objective is to evaluate the changes in ischiocrural muscle flexibility before and after applying this technique. Methods: There are 33 healthy participants (20 women, 13 men) between the ages of 18 and 35 (mean age: 24,06 ±2,21) who took part in the experimental research. The initial test evaluated the flexibility of the ischiocrural muscles flexibility of the right lower limb (RLL), followed by the application of tissue flossing for 90 seconds on the right thigh. After releasing the flossband, a control test was performed to evaluate the flexibility of the ischiocrural muscles of the RLL. The elavulation of the change in blood flow was assessed using the Medicap Précisé 8008 device, and the change of the ischiocrural muscles flexibility was measured by the size of the Black's popliteal angle. The data obtained were processed using the mathematical software R. For the data analysis descriptive statistics were used and a paired t-test was used to determine statistical significance at a significance level of 0,05. Results: Significant changes in blood flow...

Title Use of thermal imaging camera in evaluation of kinezio taping impact on shoulder girdle for female volleyball players Objectives Aim of this diploma thesis is to find out how kinezio taping affects the temperature of shoulder girdle during the physical load at female volleyball players' smash Methods The thesis is devided into theoretical part which serves as a basic for research in the second empirical part. The complex will consist of a total of 16 female volleyball players. During the measurement we will examine the effect of kinezio taping on the temperature change of shoulder girdle during the physical activity using the thermal camera before and after a physical activity. And at the remaining eight players we eill record the values before and after physical activity without apllied kinezio tape. Results Using the thermal imaging camera we found out that after application of kinezio tape the temperature in the shoulder girdle at rest raises gradually. The increase of temperature during physical load is in the reporting period lower with applied kinezio tape. Keywords Thermal camera, kinezio taping, shoulder girdle, temperature, blood flow.
