Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of treatment and/or therapy of neuromuscular dysfunctions.
  • the present invention relates to the field of the vestibular stimulations.
  • the present invention relates to the field of exercises (training) to be executed by persons affected by neuromuscular dysfunctions and/or disabilities such as, for instance, persons or people with disabilities or handicaps, in particular children and/or infants.
  • the present invention relates therefore to equipment and/or a facility and/or a device or tool adapted to allow to the subjects identified above to execute exercises or training suitable for the therapeutic treatment of neuromuscular dysfunctions, equilibrium and/or body balance, as well as for problems related to difficult or restrained walking or motion as well as to similar problems.
  • the present invention relates to an equipment or facility or device adapted to tilt or swing like a pendulum and suitable to allow the exercises or training identified above to be executed.
  • the exercises to be executed for therapeutic treatment of the above-identified problems may be executed in a simple and efficient manner.
  • a person or people affected by neuromuscular dysfunctions or disabilities more or less serious or critical such as, for instance, persons with disabilities or handicapped or even affected by restricted or difficult body balance and/or motion, may enjoy benefits and/or advantages from the execution of specific exercises and/or training, directed to the therapeutic treatment of said problems.
  • these subjects or people very often experience great difficulties in executing individually and autonomously the exercises or training which have been suggested to them; in some cases, it is even impossible for these persons or people to execute the prescribed exercises or training.
  • the kind or nature of the problems these persons are affected by limits in fact their motion capabilities and therefore limits their autonomy and their capability or possibilities to execute in an appropriate manner the exercises or training indicated by the therapy.
  • the present invention is based on the general consideration according to which very promising results in both the therapeutic treatments of the neuromuscular dysfunctions and in the field of vestibular stimulations can be obtained by means of exercising during which the person subjected to the therapeutic treatment (for instance persons or people with disabilities or handicapped or even with body balance and/or body motion problems, in particular children and infants) are subjected to a tilting and/or swinging movement similar to that of a pendulum and/or a child's swing.
  • a further important consideration on which the present invention is based relates to the fact that the efficiency and/or effectiveness of such a tilting and/or swinging motion depends on the position assumed by the person during such a motion; in particular, the effectiveness may be improved if the person is somehow "suspended" from a tilting or swinging element rather than seated on or supported by same. Moreover, the effectiveness may even be further improved if the person will be suspended in a position in which the same person appears to be lying down, however not on a horizontal surface, but rather on a vertical plane or surface.
  • the person to be treated will be suspended from a tilting swinging element in such a way that a longitudinal plane crossing the body of said person (and extending from the head to the feet of said person so as to ideally divide the person not into left and right parts comprising the left and right legs and arms of the person, respectively, but rather a frontal or forward portion comprising the face and groin and a rear portion comprising the back of the head and the glutates of said person) will be oriented substantially vertically or perpendicularly to the axis of rotation of the pendulum to which the same person will be suspended.
  • a further consideration on which the present invention is based relates to the fact that the use of the equipment and/or facility according to the present invention can be rendered easily equipped or integrated with the equipment or facility with means adapted to simplify the positioning or fixation of the person subjected to the therapy of the tilting or swinging element of said equipment or facility.
  • people without specific preparation or education in the field of therapeutic treatments for instance, the relatives or parents of a person with an handicap
  • a further consideration on which the present invention is based relates to the fact that the equipment or facility according to the present invention can be used for the therapeutic treatment of different dysfunctions, in particular when said facility, device or tool is equipped with means adapted to allow for the modification or changing of the position of the person to be treated with respect to the tilting or swinging element, in particular as a function of the therapeutic treatments to be performed and/or of the exercises or training to be executed.
  • a first embodiment of the present invention relates to equipment or a facility, device or tool for vestibular stimulation and/or for therapeutic treatment of neuromuscular dysfunctions, comprising a supporting structure and a tilting or swinging element rotatably fixed to said supporting structure in such a way that said tilting or swinging element is allowed to tilt and/or swing on a rotational axis substantially horizontal, said equipment or facility comprising furthermore holding and/or fixing means adapted to fix a person to said tilting or swinging element so that this person will appear to be lying on his own back or supine with respect to a surface or plane substantially perpendicular to said rotational axis.
  • the present invention relates to equipment or a facility for vestibular stimulation and/or therapeutic treatment of neuromuscular dysfunctions comprising a holding or supporting element anchored or fixed to said tilting or swinging element, with said holding or supporting element defining a supporting or holding plane substantially perpendicular to said rotational axis, and wherein said fixing means are adapted to fix said person to said supporting element so that this person will appear to be lying on his own back or supine with respect to said supporting or holding plane.
  • said supporting or holding element is rotatably fixed to said tilting or swinging element so as to be adapted to be fixed and locked to said tilting or swinging element in different and/or predefined positions.

  • said locking or fixing means may be completed by adding to the belts or laces 11 described above, supporting means extending from said supporting or holding surface 7a of the plate 7.
  • additional supporting or holding means can, for instance, comprise cushions, protrusions, projections or protuberances 12 adapted to exert adequate resistance against the weight of the user 14 and/or to avoid accidental and/or inconvenient movements or dislocations, during use of the equipment 100, of legs, arms or body portions of the same user 14.

  • the second part or portion 5 may be rotated with respect to the first part or portion 3a as indicated by the arrow A in Figure 1ter and, therefore, between a first position (represented in Figure 1b , in which the top or frontal surface 5a of the part or portion 5 lies substantially on a vertical plane along with the surface 3s of the tilting or swinging element of pendulum 30) and a second position ( Figure 1 ter) in which the top or front surface 5a of the part or portion 5 results to be disposed substantially horizontal, so as to form or define an angle substantially of 90° with the surface 3s of the tilting or swinging element or pendulum 30.
