Labyrinth of movement

A book interview with renowned rehabilitation expert Prof. Pavel Kolář about movement in medicine, sport and everyday life.

We move either not enough or not well, and movement is disappearing not only from life but also from medicine, says Prof. P. Kolář, a renowned physiotherapist who has been working in the field of rehabilitation medicine for thirty years. In the sophisticated system of the human body and mind, he tries to find the real causes that broke it down and, with the right treatment, restore patients to their lost health. In interviews with journalist R. Červenková, he reveals surprising connections, because nothing happens randomly in our organism.
