The claimed utility model relates to devices for medical gymnastics, namely, to pulling and bending devices for medical gymnastics, as well as to special training devices for physical exercises of individual parts of the body, in particular ankles, lower limbs, and spinal column.

A device for restoring the balance of the human body (patent of the Russian Federation No. 2203119, IPC 7 A61H 1/02, A63B 23/02, published 04/27/2003), consisting of a movable round platform designed to support the patient and made with the possibility of making vibrational motion around a central point of support, and this movement is combined with a reciprocating rotational movement, carried out by means of a single motor connected to the transmission devices, and without the intervention of a patient entent in the plane of the platform supporting the patient, around a geometric axis perpendicular to the specified platform and passing through its center, and the amplitude and speed of both vibrations and rotations can be adjusted and changed during use, in addition, the device contains means that allow holding the patient on platform in a standing, bent or seated position.

This known device is intended to restore the balance of the entire human skeleton, namely, to restore the mobility of the sacroiliac joints, lumbar spine. All muscular-composite activity is triggered automatically by controlled mechanization and without intervention from the patient. This device also allows reprogramming the load on the ankle joints and knees.

The main disadvantage of the known device should include limited application, since it can only be used stationary and only in medical institutions. Its application requires special software and professional maintenance. The patient himself cannot use it for his recovery even in a medical institution, not to mention use in other conditions, for example, at home.

There is also known a device for developing movement in the ankle joint and foot massage (certificate of the Russian Federation No. 71260 for utility model, IPC А63В 23/08 (2006.01), published March 10, 2008), containing a convex lower part made in the form of a sole from the front and the back parts and with inner and outer surfaces, and the inner surface of the sole is made in the shape of a human foot and provided with protrusions for acupressure of the foot.

A known device for the development of movements in the ankle joint and foot massage for its functional purpose, technical essence and the achieved technical result is closest to the claimed therapeutic and prophylactic device for correcting the functional state of the human body.

The main disadvantages of the known device can be attributed to the relatively long rehabilitation time of the ankle joint after its traumatic injury, as well as the insufficient effectiveness of preventive training of the ankle joint, lower limbs and, especially, the vertebral column of a healthy person.

In this regard, the known device does not provide the appropriate comprehensive therapeutic and prophylactic effect on the human body in order to correct its functional state.

The author of the utility model was faced with the task of developing such a treatment-and-prophylactic device that, when fastened to a person’s legs during his movement (step or run), would allow the person to roll (swing, pendulum) people back and forth, and also left and right .

The creation of such a device would reduce the time of rehabilitation of the ankle joint after its traumatic injury, as well as increase the effectiveness of preventive training of the ankle joint, lower limbs and spinal column of a healthy person.

The problem posed by the author is solved, and the technical result is achieved by using the inventive therapeutic and prophylactic device for correcting the functional state of the human body, containing a convex lower part made in the form of a sole with front and back parts and with inner and outer surfaces, and the inner surface of the sole is made according to the shape of a person’s foot, in which the lower part is additionally provided with an upper part for fixing the device to a person’s foot, the back of the sole ying a rigid roll-over, the front part of the sole a ramp in front of the tip of the sole, and the outer surface of the front portion of the sole and the rear sole portion are each in the form of its convex curved surface.

In addition, in the treatment and prophylactic device, the inner surface of the sole is provided with protrusions for acupressure of a person’s foot.

The claimed treatment and prophylactic device for correcting the functional state of the human body and its closest analogue (prototype) have common essential features:

- a convex lower part made in the form of a sole with front and rear parts and with internal and external surfaces;

- the inner surface of the sole is made in the shape of the human foot.

The claimed treatment and prophylactic device for correcting the functional state of the human body differs from its closest analogue (prototype) by the following essential features:

- the back of the sole is made rigid in the form of a roll;

- the front of the sole has a ramp at the tip of the front of the sole;

- the outer surfaces of the front of the sole and the back of the sole are each made in the form of its convex curved surface.

The listed essential features that distinguish the claimed device from its closest analogue (prototype), together with the essential features common to it and the prototype, ensure the achievement of the claimed technical result in all cases to which the scope of legal protection applies.

The sign "the inner surface of the sole is equipped with protrusions for acupressure of the foot of a person" characterizes the utility model in a specific form of performing an essential feature of the device, but also substantially ensures the achievement of a technical result.

The supply of the lower part of the claimed device with the upper part made it possible to fix it on the legs of a person and provide him with a step or run with the possibility of performing rolling movements (swinging, pendulum movements) of a person forward and backward, as well as left and right, which reduced the time of rehabilitation of the ankle joint after its traumatic injury, as well as to increase the effectiveness of preventive training of the ankle joint, lower limbs and spinal column of a healthy person, i.e. provide a comprehensive therapeutic and preventive effect on the human body.

The execution of the back of the sole is rigid in the form of a roll, and the front of the sole with the presence of a slope in its front allows the person to move the feet back and forth in the process of moving or jogging, thereby reducing the time of rehabilitation of the ankle joint after his traumatic injury, and also increase the effectiveness of preventive training of the ankle joint, lower limbs and spinal column of a healthy person by strengthening the muscles of the lower leg, development of the broad muscle and Achilles tendon, relieve muscle tension, increase muscle flexibility and, due to stretching of contracted muscles, contribute to straightening the spine.

The implementation of the outer surface of the front of the sole and the back of the sole in the form of convex curved surfaces allowed the person to make the movements of the feet rolling from left to right, which reduced the time of rehabilitation of the ankle joint after its traumatic injury, and also increased the effectiveness of preventive training of the ankle joint, lower limbs and the spinal column of a healthy person by strengthening the muscles of the lower leg, relieving muscle tension, increasing muscle flexibility and by stretching the contracted muscles to help straighten the spine.

Performing the inner surface of the sole in the shape of a human foot and providing it with protrusions for acupressure reduced the time of rehabilitation of the ankle joint after traumatic injury, as well as increased the effectiveness of preventive training of the ankle joint, lower limbs and spinal column of a healthy person due to the effect on the reflex points of the foot.

The claimed utility model is industrially applicable and new, since it does not explicitly follow from the prior art.

The treatment and prophylactic device for correcting the functional state of the human body is shown in the drawing, where: in Fig. 1, a device is shown, side view; figure 2 - shows a section aa in figure 1.

The treatment-and-prophylactic device for correcting the functional state of the human body comprises a convex lower part 1 and an upper part 2, which is mounted on a convex lower part 1 and serves to fix the device on a person’s leg. The convex lower part 1 is made in the form of a sole with front 3 and rear 4 parts and with inner 5 and outer 6 surfaces. The inner surface 5 of the sole is made in the shape of a human foot and provided with protrusions 7 for acupressure of the foot.

The upper part 2, designed for reliable, tight and comfortable fastening of the device on a person’s foot, can have various shapes and designs, for example, covering only the rise of the foot or more closed.

The back part 4 of the sole is rigid in the form of a roll 8, and the front part 3 of the sole has a ramp 9 at the tip of the front part 3 of the sole.

The treatment and prophylactic device for correcting the functional state of a person is used as follows.

The exercises on this device are carried out taking into account the initial functional capabilities of a person and the condition of his ankle joints in the first place.

Before starting the exercise, the person places the plantar surface of the foot of each leg on the inner surface 5 of the treatment-and-prophylactic device intended for each leg so that the feet are firmly fixed by the upper part 2.

Initially, they perform the exercise of balancing in place by rolling back and forth and left-right on the roll 8 of the convex rear part 4 of the sole and its outer surface 6.

Moreover, this exercise - rolling on the outer surface 6 of the device can be performed in different ways (depending on the state of the human body), for example: simultaneously on both legs in one direction - to the left, and then in the opposite - to the right; at the same time, the legs roll in different directions and return to their original position; one leg on the device is used as a support, and the other is rolling left and right and vice versa, and so on.

This exercise allows you to reduce the time of rehabilitation of the ankle joint after its traumatic injury, as well as to increase the effectiveness of preventive training of the ankle joint, lower limbs and spinal column of a healthy person due to the development of the broad muscle and Achilles tendon, ensures stability of the lower leg and increases the sense of balance.

Perform this exercise 10 to 30 times.

The next exercise: from a vertical stand in place, perform forward rolling until the ramp 9 of the front part 3 of the sole touches the horizontal surface of the floor or soil, fix this position for 10-20 seconds, and then return to the vertical position by rolling back.

This exercise allows you to reduce the time of rehabilitation of the ankle joint after its traumatic injury, as well as increase the effectiveness of preventive training of the ankle joint, lower limbs and spinal column of a healthy person by stretching the muscles of the leg, straightening the spine, relieving muscle tension and increasing muscle flexibility.

The exercise is repeated 6-15 times.

The sequential joint execution of the above exercises is advisable: initially rolling in place backward, and then immediately rolling in place backward or in reverse sequence - initially rolling in place backward, and then immediately rolling in place forward. Doing these two exercises this way makes the process even more effective.

When performing each exercise due to the protrusions 7 located on the inner surface of the sole 5, which are directly in contact with the surface of the foot, acupressure of the foot is carried out, which significantly improves blood circulation, both in the feet and legs, increases the efficiency of all human organs.

After practicing the above exercises on the spot, it is recommended to complicate them by moving at short distances in steps, and then, as the medical device is confidently mastered, by slow running, gradually alternating between running and moving with a step and gradually increasing the time of rehabilitation or training.
