[Jogging. Suggestions for general practice].

Abstract

Medical science and practice can no longer ignore the phenomenon of jogging, but should support it as the expression of an instinct of the citizen. Here also understatement and exaggeration are often found, so that the doctor, as the citizen's adviser must be informed about kinesitherapy. In four-dimensional therapy (environmental awareness: psychological conduct, movement, dietetics, physical measures), in primary, secondary and tertiary prevention and in sports for the handicapped, jogging is almost always involved and is very often the central point. Every century has its diseases and lesions and every century must evolve for itself the laws on prevention, healing and restoration and incorporate them into everyday life.
