Description

The utility model relates to medical technology and can be used to carry out procedures for the treatment and prevention of diseases of the spine and joints.

A device for the prevention and treatment of diseases of the spine and joints allows you to improve microcirculation and accelerate the metabolic process in tissue by relieving spasm of blood vessels, improving microcirculation, increasing fluidity in the area of influence and photo activation of biochemical processes in the field of pathology.

In the event of diseases of the spine and joints, for example, osteochondrosis, or a violation of local blood circulation, or with age-related changes, degenerative processes develop, accompanied by a deterioration in the function of the skin, the neuromuscular system, the system of blood, lymph and cerebrospinal fluid circulation. In addition, the inflammatory process or age-related changes are accompanied by a narrowing of blood vessels and a deterioration in microcirculation in the skin, subcutaneous tissue and muscles of the spine and joints, which leads to a slowdown in metabolic processes in tissues. It is possible to improve microcirculation and accelerate the metabolic process in tissue by relieving spasm of blood vessels, improving microcirculation, increasing fluidity in the affected area and performing photo activation of biochemical processes in the field of pathology.

For the prevention and treatment of diseases of the spine and joints, physiotherapeutic methods of treatment are now widely used.

For the implementation of physiotherapeutic methods of treatment, there are several devices that allow the prevention and treatment of diseases of the spine and joints with a fairly high efficiency.

To study the effectiveness of the methods proposed in the equipment, a study was carried out (by the method of polling and testing) on the basis of the Department of Health and Rehabilitation, the Humanitarian and Pedagogical Academy of the Crimean Federal University named after V.I. Vernadsky.

The experiment involved: 18 teachers and 26 students.

The age of the participants is from 19 to 65 years old. Before the experiment began, its participants noted: recurrent headaches - 86%, back muscle tension - 78%, hand numbness - 28%, rapid fatigue - 92%, sleep disturbance - 56%, irritability 42%, increased forgetfulness - 18%, absent-mindedness - 22%.

The procedures were carried out daily, for two weeks in parallel to students and teachers, which increased the importance and importance of preventive measures, increased the responsibility of both students and teachers.

Periodic headaches persisted in 26%, versus 86% before the start of the experiment; back muscle tension was noted in 18% versus 78%; numbness of the hands - 8% versus 28%; fatigue persisted in 22% versus 92%; sleep disturbance - 16% versus 56%; irritability was noted in 12% versus 42%; increased forgetfulness was noted by 7%, versus 18%.

Hardware massage of the collar zone was carried out for 7 minutes, the massage was carried out by moving up and down, with two solenoids that produce blows (from minimum to strong on a 10-point scale) of various rhythmic content. This is not only vertical vibration, but also 32 different vibration variations from 3Hz to 10Hz, which gives a very pleasant feeling during the procedure.

At the same time, heating occurs, in which infrared heat is released and a magnetic field appears, penetrating even the deepest parts of the body.

After the course of the application of the proposed device, all the participants noted an improvement in their well-being, an increase in mood, an increase in physical activity, and a state of internal comfort.

According to the results of the experiment, we can assert that the proposed device allows you to fight stoop, restore blood circulation, correct posture, stretch and warm up muscles, neutralize headaches, normalize pressure, sleep, relieve fatigue and nervous stress.

The experiment was carried out using pain characterization questionnaires, since pain reduction is the leading indicator of efficiency and improvement in the quality of life.

The technical result of the proposed device is achieved by making the device in the form of a comfortable cape, which can be placed both on the spine and in the area of the patient's joints, while the combination of exposure blocks located in it allows achieving a proven cumulative therapeutic and prophylactic effect.
