Everyone has a dream – to be agile, healthy, with well-trained muscles … after a day at work neither the head nor the back hurts, the feeling is fresh, lively and full of energy.
The therapy of elastic bonds or Sling therapy is a possibility to give your body healthy tone in individual classes with a physiotherapist. It is one of the most effective methods of physiotherapy for strengthening the deep musculature, stabilizing the spine and the body and exercising muscle power.
The Sling therapy is a unique alternative for gym activities or aerobic exercises; moreover, it is done individually by an individual plan for each person with a physiotherapist present.
It unifies an active exercise session and modern rehabilitation methods. The main goal is to achieve stable movements and the fitness of the support apparatus.
The Sling therapy helps to fortify the deep muscles that support the spine, improves the metabolism in the structures that sit close to the spine (vertebral joint cartilages, inter-vertebral discs, ligaments) When the deep muscles in the back do not work properly, their function is overtaken by the top muscles that hurt from the inadequate load. A row of other back and posture problems also occur. When the deep muscles have been put in motion, the back pain most often ceases. Especially for those that have a chronic pain in the back and the doctors say that “there have been degenerative changes in the spine” or spondylosis (which due to the current general immobile lifestyle is found with almost everybody older than 20 years).
Sling therapy can be appointed by any Professional but most often it is recommended by neurologists, general practitioners and traumatologists. There is also an option to consult the physiotherapist first and to decide whether a doctor’s consultation is necessary.
The concept of the elastic bond therapy includes diagnostics and treatment systems:
The diagnostic system – includes the testing of muscle endurance with the help of progressing load in a closed and open cinematic chain. It is combined with traditional ways of musculoskeletal examination;
The treatment system – includes relaxation, increasing the movement amplitude, traction, exercising the stability of the musculature, sensorimotory exercises – exercises for improving the transmission speed of nerve impulses etc.
