Therasuit method
How does it work?
The Therasuit Method is a new intensive physiotherapy treatment, designed to be applied to children and adults affected by neurological disorders, such as cerebral palsy, developmental delay, neuromuscular disorders, traumatic brain injuries, among others.
Therapeutic suit
The Therasuit is a semi-soft, dynamic and proprioceptive orthosis, which, through a system of rubber bands that are placed according to the patient's postural pattern, aligns the body, thus seeking the most normalized posture possible.
Universal Exercise Unit
It is used to strengthen the muscle groups responsible for movement. The Universal Exercise Unit allows you to gain amplitude of muscular movement and the flexibility of the joints.
Therasuit Method
It seeks to reduce muscle tone, decrease pathological movement patterns, increase correct active movement patterns and general strength development.
Therasuit Goal
Normalize the muscle tone of the patient, Increase the active joint excursion, increase strength and resistance, all this in order for the patient to gain independence.
Purposes
- Exercise control over newly strengthened muscle groups, so children can improve their functional abilities.
- It combines an intensive and personalized strengthening program for children with cerebral palsy using the TheraSuit and the Universal Exercise Unit.
- Combats the effects of deconditioning and immobilization.
- It is based on the principles of intensive therapy and strength development.
- Structured program that enhances the growth and development of the person.
Advantages
- Improves proprioception
- Provides external stabilization and strengthens weak muscles
- Corrects body alignment
- Improves the vestibular system
- Stimulates the brain to re-educate the central nervous system (CNS)
- Provides tactile and sensory stimulation
- Improves language production and fluency
