Abstract

The article aims to consider the role of the musculoskeletal system in maintaining the postural balance. It describes two postural strategies (ankle one and hip one). The postural balance is assessed taking into account the «cone of economy». The article considers segmental anatomical and physiological characteristics of the spinal column and joints of the lower extremities participating in maintaining the vertical posture. It also shows the possibilities of non-radiological assessment methods of balance in the diagnosis and correction of postural disorders and diseases of the joints and spine.
