When we demand maximum performance from our bodies, even small deficiencies can contribute to an apparatus a non-profit. And the case of an athlete who does not have a perfect balance.
There are some sports such as skiing, cycling, sailing, shooting, shooting with the bow, where a minimum disorder apparatus that governs our relationship with the force of gravity, creates problems in the performance of the sport.
Today we have methods to study the equilibrium very sophisticated and precise to allow us to grasp even a small deficit of this system (evoked potentials, vestibular examination, etc.)..
The most obvious clinical appearance of a balance disorder is commonly known as vertigo, which in turn is defined as a false sense of body movement in relation to its (subjective vertigo or central) or environment compared to the body (objective vertigo or peripheral), this alteration is not always obvious but may appear several times in a subtle, inadvertently altering their perceptions of body image and thus changing the athletic knowledge of the archer.
Obviously this is a very simplified scheme for a first approach to the problem.
If an athlete feels disturbances, both postural and / or moving, may apply to a Centre for Sports Medicine specialist, for an oto-neurological study of its balance.
addition to a correct diagnosis may have some suggestions for exercise and stimulate this system and to reduce (up to to disappear) any dizziness in place.
Very often balance disorders are associated with hearing loss and so it is always useful to associate a visit to the vestibular study and a study of the hearing through hearing tests, tympanometry, riflessometrici, etc..
Sometimes the approach to the problem of vertigo that can be multidisciplinary and involve more specialists in the study of one case (orthopedics, orthodontics, neurological, eye doctor, angiology, internist).
In a sport such as archery, the stability of the support is essential to be able to have a good result. Therefore, the ENT specialist is always very carefully to discover and to explore any difficulties, due to a deficiency of this system, perceived by history that the athlete is subjected during routine visits at the Centers for Sports Medicine at ' MUST charge.
The athlete who laments poor balance will be immediately submitted to the findings listed above so that we can establish a cause and a cure will be found quickly and efficiently.
Finally we invite athletes and health spin around the sports world to a symptom that should not be underestimated, as they are often subtle and thus difficult to recognize, may be responsible for repeated and unexplained sub-optimal performance.
