研究有助釐清腰大肌僵硬與下背痛之間可能的雙向關係

患有慢性下背痛的頂尖運動員，其腰大肌僵硬度較高，且與運動功能障礙有關。

理大康復治療科學系副系主任及洪克協痛症管理教授符少娥及其研究團隊，對精英體操及武術運動員進行研究，探討腰大肌的機械特性尤其是其僵硬度，是否與慢性下背痛有關。

該研究的結果顯示，腰大肌僵硬與慢性下背痛之間可能存在雙向關係：腰肌張力增加會導致與運動相關的功能障礙，而慢性疼痛則會影響神經肌肉控制，繼而進一步增加腰大肌僵硬度。此項研究有助釐清兩者之間的關係，並能協助運動員打破這個惡性循環。

Elite athletes with chronic low back pain (LBP) display higher psoas major (PM) stiffness tied to sport dysfunction.

Prof. Amy Siu Ngor FU, Associate Head (Rehabilitation Sciences) and Peter Hung Professor in Pain Management of the Department of Rehabilitation Sciences at PolyU, and her research team investigated whether the mechanical properties of the PM muscle—particularly its stiffness—are associated with chronic LBP in elite gymnastics and wushu athletes.

The research findings suggest a possible two-way relationship between PM stiffness and LBP: increased psoas tension may lead to sport-related dysfunction, while chronic pain can alter neuromuscular control and further increase PM stiffness. This study helps clarify the relationship and can help athletes break the vicious cycle.

康復治療科學系 RS3S04 服務學習課程 - 柬埔寨之旅圓滿結束

今個夏天，香港理工大學康復治療科學系順利完成了為期九天的柬埔寨金邊服務學習之旅。是次團隊由 18 名來自物理治療學、職業治療學及護理學的學生組成，旨在運用專業知識，為當地有需要人士提供服務。

在當地「成長特殊教育學校」進行服務期間，團隊為患有自閉症譜系障礙的兒童悉心設計了一系列復康活動。內容涵蓋大肌肉與小肌肉遊戲、多感官刺激訓練、互動烘焙工作坊，以及切合實際需求的課室環境改造。在一周的互動中，理大學生與當地學童建立了真摯的友誼，學童們亦逐漸融入並積極參與各項活動。這次服務之旅不僅為當地帶來實質的幫助，更為參與師生帶來了深遠且意義非凡的體驗。

為了加深對當地文化的認識，學生們實地參觀了多個社區組織，學習基礎高棉語 (柬埔寨語) 短句，並親身體驗傳統柬埔寨舞蹈。此外，團隊亦走訪了吐斯廉屠殺博物館 (S-21)、奇梳山寺 (Phnom Chisor) 以及中央市場等多個歷史與文化地標，從而對金邊的歷史脈絡、風土人情有了更深厚與立體的體會。

這趟旅程是一次深刻的全人學習經歷，不但讓學生得以學以致用，為當地有需要的人士提供專業的醫療復康服務，培養學生的跨專業協作精神與社會關懷意識。

Empowering Communities: RS3S04 Service-Learning Journey to Cambodia Successfully Completed

This summer, the Department of Rehabilitation Sciences (RS) organised a highly successful 9-day service-learning trip to Phnom Penh, Cambodia. Under the subject RS3S04: Serving People with Special Healthcare Needs, a multidisciplinary team of 18 PolyU students from the Physiotherapy, Occupational Therapy, and Nursing programmes collaborated to deliver meaningful community support.

The team ran an impactful 5-day service programme at the Growing Special Education School (GSES). To support children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), our students designed and implemented a variety of therapeutic activities. These included gross and fine motor games, multi-sensory sessions, interactive bakery workshops, and practical classroom environmental modifications. Over the course of the week, the team witnessed a wonderful transformation as the children moved from initial shyness to active, joyful participation. These energetic and educational activities brought genuine, lasting benefits to both the children and the school staff, and every smile on the children’s faces was the team’s greatest reward.

To enrich their cultural understanding, the students also visited local community organizations, learned basic Khmer phrases, and tried their hand at traditional Cambodian dance. They also explored historical and cultural landmarks, including the Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum (S-21), Phnom Chisor, and the vibrant Central Market, gaining a deeper appreciation for the local history and lifestyle in Phnom Penh.

This journey was a profound learning experience, allowing our students to integrate their professional healthcare skills with cultural empathy and collaborative teamwork.

The Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU) 【理大精英學生運動員｜為乒乓球女將李凱敏打氣！🏓】

於2022年透過「學生運動員學習支援及入學計劃」（SALSA）入讀物理治療學（榮譽）理學士課程的李凱敏，現時為香港全職乒乓球運動員。

凱敏近年在球壇大放異彩，屢獲殊榮。她不僅勇奪2023年亞洲乒乓球錦標賽女子團體賽銅牌，更於2023及2025年兩度摘下世界大學生運動會女團銅牌，實力備受肯定。早前，她更代表理大乒乓球隊，在校內活動中與奧運冠軍馬龍同台切磋，展理理大精英運動員的風範。

要在繁重課業與高強度訓練之間取得平衡絕非易事，但凱敏憑藉堅毅的意志與對乒乓球的熱誠，不斷突破自我，展現理大人追求卓越的精神。

凱敏有望於9月代表香港出戰亞運乒乓球賽事，踏上亞洲體壇最高舞台！這不僅是她運動生涯的重要里程碑，更是理大社群的驕傲。讓我們一起為她送上最熱烈的祝福，期待她在日本賽場上奮勇拼搏，打出精彩一戰！💪✨
