Kaabliliike

Kaabliliike is a Finnish term that translates to "cable movement" or "cable movement" and is primarily used in the context of physical therapy, occupational therapy, and rehabilitation. It refers to a specific type of exercise or therapeutic technique designed to improve the mobility and function of joints and soft tissues that are often restricted by the surrounding fascia and connective tissues.

The core principle behind kaabliliike is to use slow, controlled, and sustained movements to gently lengthen and release tight fascial chains within the body. These chains are interconnected layers of connective tissue that run throughout the body, and restrictions in one area can significantly impact movement and cause pain elsewhere. Therapists use kaabliliike to address issues like postural imbalances, chronic pain, limited range of motion, and recovery from injuries.

The exercises typically involve a series of dynamic stretches and coordinated movements performed with attention to breath and body awareness. The goal is not to force a stretch, but rather to allow the tissues to gradually adapt and lengthen over time. This approach emphasizes a holistic view of the body, recognizing that interconnectedness is key to restoring optimal function and reducing discomfort. Kaabliliike is often integrated into broader rehabilitation programs and can be adapted for individuals with varying levels of physical ability.
