Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Gerät zur Behandlung der Beine, des Beckens und des Lendenwirbelsäulensyndroms, das auch bei Fehlbelastung, Fehlhaltung (verkürzte Beine), Lähmungen (Hemipleghie, Tripleghie, Parapleghie oder Tetrapleghie) eingesetzt wird, wie auch bei Zirkulationsstörungen, Stauungen, Ödemen etc., die bei einer Vielzahl von Personen durch langes Stehen, Sitzen oder Schwerbelastung, aber auch durch Störungen, die nach Verletzungen, Operationen auftreten, hervorgerufen werden. Die Behandlung anderer Störungen, wie Bewegungseinschränkungen (tendogene, astrogene, kapsuläre, ligamentäre Kontraktur), Skelett- und muskuläre Disbalancen etc. wird erleichtert und verbessert und erzielt eine optimale Wirkung.The invention relates to a device for the treatment of the legs, the pelvis and the lumbar spine syndrome, which is also used in the case of incorrect loading, incorrect posture (shortened legs), paralysis (hemiplegia, triplegia, paraplegia or quadriplegia), as well as in circulatory disorders, congestion, edema, etc. , which are caused by a long standing, sitting or heavy load in many people, but also by disorders that occur after injuries, operations. The treatment of other disorders, such as restricted movement (tendogenic, astrogenic, capsular, ligamentary contracture), skeletal and muscular imbalances etc. is facilitated and improved and achieves an optimal effect.

Bisherige Geräte unterstützen die Behandlung relativ wenig, ohne Ausrichtung, und es gibt nicht viele Möglichkeiten für eine komplette Kombinationsbehandlung.Existing devices support the treatment relatively little, without alignment, and there are not many options for a complete combination treatment.

Die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist deshalb, ein Gerät zu schaffen, das die Aufhängung mit simultaner oder alternativer Bewegung der Beine, Hände und des Beckens des Patienten sowie die Ausrichtung der Bewegung ermöglicht. Auch soll der Bewegung Widerstand entgegengesetzt werden können.The object of the present invention is therefore to provide a device which enables the suspension with simultaneous or alternative movement of the legs, hands and pelvis of the patient and the alignment of the movement. Resistance to the movement should also be possible.

Das Gerät bietet vielfältige Möglichkeiten der Befestigung und Ausrichtung der einzelnen Körperstellen (Fuß, Unterschenkel, Kniegelenk, Oberschenkel, Becken, Lendenwirbelsäule und Hände), die in der Therapie dieser Bereiche von großer Bedeutung sind, und ersetzt bzw. erleichtert dadurch erheblich die manuelle Behandlung durch den Therapeuten.The device offers a wide range of options for attaching and aligning the individual parts of the body (foot, lower leg, knee, thigh, pelvis, lumbar spine and hands), which are of great importance in the therapy of these areas, and thereby replaces or considerably facilitates manual treatment the therapist.

Je nach Behandlungsfall wird der Patient bestimmten physikalischen Einwirkungen unterworfen, die durch Bewegen der Beine (über das Becken, das Kniegelenk oder das Sprunggelenk) in einer vom Therapeuten voreingestellten Bahn , oder durch die Einwirkung des Therapeuten oder durch einfache Fixierung - Aufhängung erfolgen.Depending on the case of treatment, the patient is subjected to certain physical influences, which occur by moving the legs (over the pelvis, knee or ankle) in a path preset by the therapist, or by the influence of the therapist or by simple fixation - suspension.

Somit können beispielsweise Streckungen, Widerstands- und statisch-isometrische Übungen sowie auch passive und aktivo-passive Dehnungen, Mobilisation unter Traktion sowie passive und aktivo-passive Bewegungen in Kombination und nach Bedarf am gleichen Gerät erfolgen.Thus, for example, stretching, resistance and static-isometric exercises as well as passive and activo-passive stretching, mobilization under traction as well as passive and activo-passive movements can be performed in combination and as required on the same device.

Sehr oft treffen in der Praxis bei Patienten Beschwerden auf, bei denen ein Syndrom von den Füßen bis hinauf zur Wirbelsäule behandelt werden muß. Aus diesem Grund bietet dieses Gerät vielfältige Möglichkeiten, eine optimale Therapie durchzuführen. Je nach dem Behandlungsfall wird der Patient bestimmten physikalischen Einwirkungen unterworfen.In practice, patients very often experience symptoms in which a syndrome must be treated from the feet up to the spine. For this reason, this device offers a variety of options for performing optimal therapy. Depending on the treatment case, the patient is subjected to certain physical influences.

Das Gerät bietet die Wahl zwischen:

  • dynamischer oder statischer Anwendung,
  • eigenständiger Behandlung durch den Patienten und der Behandlung durch den Therapeuten,
  • partieller/unabhängiger und koordinierter Bewegungstherapie (in nicht gekoppeltem Zustand sind die Pedalen bzw. die Unterschenkelauflagen unabhängig voneinander zu bewegen; in gekoppeltem Zustand kann z.B. das gesunde Bein das kranke mitbewegen, bis zu einer vom Patienten kontrollierten Schmerzgrenze).
The device offers the choice between:
  • dynamic or static application,
  • independent treatment by the patient and treatment by the therapist,
  • partial / independent and coordinated movement therapy (in a non-coupled state, the pedals or lower leg supports must be moved independently of one another; in a coupled state, for example, the healthy leg can move the sick leg up to a patient-controlled pain limit).

Ebenfalls können die Beine mit Hilfe der Hände bewegt werden bis zu einer von Patienten selbst bestimmten und kontrollierten Schmerzgrenze.The legs can also be moved with the help of the hands up to a pain limit determined and controlled by the patient himself.

Die Befestigungs- und Ausrichtungsvorrichtungen des Gerätes erlauben es dem Therapeuten, ohne Umstände eine gezielte, regionale Behandlung auszuführen oder vom Patienten ausführen zu lassen.The attachment and alignment devices of the device allow the therapist to easily carry out a targeted, regional treatment or to have it carried out by the patient.

Die Bewegungsmöglichkeiten z. B.: im Sprunggelenk bestehen in je einer gezielten Drehung um zwei Achsen und auch in deren Kombination, so daß Pronation und Supination zum einen, Extension und Flexion zum andern, sowie deren Kombination mit Rotation im Sprunggelenk erfolgen können.The possibilities of movement z. For example: in the ankle there is a specific rotation around two axes and also in their combination, so that pronation and supination on the one hand, extension and flexion on the other, and their combination with rotation in the ankle can take place.

Die Möglichkeiten, welche das auf den Unterschenkelauflagen befestigte Bein hat, sind noch vielfältiger; Drehungen der Kniegelenke um die Teleskopstückachse und/oder eine Translationsbewegung der Beine auf den Auflagen entlang einer kontinuierlich einstellbaren Neigung (von waagerecht bis annähernd senkrecht) sowie die Möglichkeit der Positionierung und Ausrichtung der Füße, Beine, des Beckens und der Wirbelsäule ermöglichen die Behandlung von Beschwerden beginnend beim Fuß bis hin zur Lendenwirbelsäule. Die aktiven oder passiven Dehnungen wie etwa Flexionen, Extensionen, Pronationen und Supinationen im Lenden-, Becken- und Beinbereich sowie die Bewegung in allen Variationen dienen der Aufdehnung verspannter tonischer Muskelgruppen, verkürzter Sehnen und Bänder, verklebter Gelenkkapseln sowie der Regulierung des Muskeltonus.The possibilities that the leg attached to the lower leg supports have are even more diverse; Rotations of the knee joints around the telescope piece axis and / or one Translational movement of the legs on the supports along a continuously adjustable inclination (from horizontal to approximately vertical) as well as the possibility of positioning and aligning the feet, legs, pelvis and spine enable the treatment of symptoms starting with the foot up to the lumbar spine. The active or passive stretches such as flexions, extensions, pronations and supinations in the lumbar, pelvic and leg areas as well as the movement in all variations serve to stretch tense muscle groups, shortened tendons and ligaments, bonded joint capsules and regulate muscle tone.

Die Unterschenkelauflage kann elastisch ausgebildet sein, beispielsweise aus einem elastischen Stoffband.The lower leg support can be made elastic, for example from an elastic fabric band.

Von großem Vorteil ist die Möglichkeit, in der Rückenlage die Unterschenkelauflagen hochzulagern, um einem noch nicht leistungsfähigen Muskel Übungen zur Koordinierung des Bewegungsablaufes mit einer Verringerung des Einflusses der Schwerkraft (Moment der Schwerkraft) zu gestatten. Zugleich kann die Beanspruchung für leistungsfähigere Muskeln mit Bewegungswiderständen erhöht werden. Diese können elastisch sein, wie etwa Gummizüge, Federn, aber auch unelastische, wie z. B. Seile für isometrische Übungen, oder motorische Vorrichtungen oder Gewichte.Of great advantage is the possibility to raise the lower leg supports in the supine position in order to allow a muscle that is not yet able to perform to coordinate the movement sequence with a reduction in the influence of gravity (moment of gravity). At the same time, the load for more powerful muscles with movement resistance can be increased. These can be elastic, such as elastic bands, springs, but also inelastic, such as. B. ropes for isometric exercises, or motor devices or weights.

Ebenfalls durch die Hochlagerung der Unterschenkel kann bei Zirkulationsstörungen der venöse Rückfluß des betroffenen Körperteils beschleunigt werden.The raised position of the lower leg can also accelerate the venous reflux of the affected part of the body in the event of circulation disorders.

Die Beckenauflage um einen bestimmten Winkel gekippt werden, so daß die Rollen des Gehäuses auf dem Boden aufliegen und das Gerät transportiert werden kann. Wenn als Beckenauflage ein separate Liegefläche genutzt werden soll, so können anstelle der Beckenauflage zwei Verlängerungsarme mit Befestigungsschalen an diese separate Liegefläche befestigt werden. Auch hier gilt, daß bei Kippen der Verlängerungsarme nach oben die Rollen sich nach unten drehen und das Gerät transportiert werden kann.The cymbal support can be tilted by a certain angle so that the rollers of the housing rest on the floor and the device can be transported. If a separate lying surface is to be used as a pelvic support, two extension arms can be attached to this separate lying surface with fastening shells instead of the pelvic support. The same applies here that when the extension arms are tilted upwards, the rollers turn downwards and the device can be transported.

Die Beckenauflage kann eine einfache Schräge sein, aber sie kann auch als komplexe Auflage vorgesehen sein, die auch für den Oberkörper dient.The pelvic support can be a simple bevel, but it can also be provided as a complex support that also serves for the upper body.

Für eine Behandlung im Sitzen kann der Schlittenträger um 90° nach unten gekippt werden, wobei er sich bis zum Anschlag am Ständer bewegt. In dieser Position ist das Gerät sehr kompakt und kann sehr leicht abtransportiert oder abgestellt werden.For treatment while sitting, the sled carrier can be tilted down by 90 °, whereby it moves up to the stop on the stand. In this position, the device is very compact and can be easily transported or parked.

Das Gerät wird nicht nur zur Rehabilitation, sondern auch zur Prophylaxe und Prävention eingesetzt.The device is not only used for rehabilitation, but also for prophylaxis and prevention.

Das Gerät kann auf die Behandlungsliege, auf den Boden, auf eine Matte, auf einer Gymnastikbank etc. gestellt oder mittels eines Gürtels fixiert werden. Es ist handlich, leicht und bedienungsfreundlich.The device can be placed on the treatment table, on the floor, on a mat, on a gymnastics bench etc. or fixed with a belt.
