Objective:
- gaining muscle strength
- improving muscle endurance
- minimizing muscle atrophy resulting from immobilization or pathological processes
- delaying the occurrence of muscle atrophy
- obtaining compensatory strength gains
- improving neuromuscular coordination
Indications:
- weakening of muscle strength
- immobilization conditions (e.g. plaster cast)
Contraindications:
- acute inflammation of the joints
- inflammation of periarticular tissues
- inflammation of the veins
- temperature above 38°
- fractures, post-traumatic conditions
- conditions after dislocation
- disturbed continuity of the skin and soft tissues
- occurrence of pain during exercise
- conditions after surgery before removing the stitches (consultation with a doctor)
- diastolic blood pressure above 100 and systolic blood pressure above 160 (measured at rest)
- the general serious condition of the patient
- condition after computed tomography with contrast
- condition after lumbar puncture (e.g. collection of cerebrospinal fluid)
A referral is required for exercises.
