Dr. Deepa S. | Dr. Priya Kumari [2] | Rokshitha S. | Vimal Raj G.
Abstract: Background: A subconscious recollection known as muscle memory facilitates the use of motor abilities that have been learned via repetition or habituation. Myonuclear permanence memory can help athletes recover from hard events and help elderly people grow muscle more quickly. It can also be used in medicine. Wearable technology, such as motion capture systems, artificial intelligence, virtual rehabilitation, and electromyography sensors, can help tailor exercise regimens to enhance muscle memory retention and skill acquisition. Aim: This review article aims to explore muscle memory's role in rehabilitation and its potential benefits for improving motor function and movement. Objectives: The review article will analyze the application of improving muscle in various conditions and with use of interventions for the same. It explores aspects like perceptual memory, procedural memory, neuroanatomy, and neurophysiology. Methods: Articles pertaining to exercise used to improve muscle memory were explored through this review paper. The primary objective of this review paper is to map the use of muscle memory as outcome of the intervention used in the Physiotherapeutic rehabilitation and synthesize the existing literature for the available rehabilitation techniques to improve neural connections and motor muscle memory. Results: Conclusion: The article identifies key rehabilitation factors, discusses exercises and Physiotherapy techniques to strengthen neural activity, and addresses research gaps in muscle memory. It provides valuable insights for healthcare professionals in rehabilitation settings.
