GMOVE-SUIT offers assistance to people with disorders affecting the proprioceptive system by acting as a dynamic orthosis.<\/p>\n
Stroke can have physical consequences such as motor disorders and muscle pain. As the number of strokes is constantly increasing, its management is becoming a real public health problem.<\/p>\n
Stroke, or cerebral vascular accident, is a blood circulation failure that affects a more or less important region of the brain. It occurs when a blood vessel becomes blocked or ruptures.<\/p>\n
The consequence is the death of nerve cells, which are deprived of oxygen and essential nutrients to their functions. The loss of these nerve cells will generate after-effects which, depending on the region of the brain affected and the inherent functions, will be more or less important.<\/p>\n
The risk factors for a stroke are high blood pressure, high cholesterol, smoking, obesity and poor lifestyle.<\/p>\n
Post-stroke consequences include motor sequelae (hemiplegia), sensitivity and speech disorders, and muscle pain.<\/p>\n
Hemiplegia is the paralysis of one or more parts of the body on one side only (affecting a hemibody). In a stroke of the left side of the brain, this can cause right hemiplegia. This is a paralysis of the right upper limb and the right lower limb. Following this paralysis the patient will try to regain a certain degree of autonomy through specialized rehabilitation. The physiotherapist will accompany the patient in order to regain some use of the affected limb(s). The aim is also to recover a certain motor skills thanks to certain exercises for muscular strengthening, improving blood circulation and stabilisation.<\/p>\n
GMOVE-SUIT and active compression can be used during proprioceptive re-education in order to help the patient regain mobility. Following our tests (Openings in neurological and psychomotor work<\/a>, Part 2: EDS, MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS AND PARKINSON<\/a>) and our patients’ experiences we have found several benefits.<\/p>\n Restraint applied to the limbs and skin receptors helps to reinforce proprioceptive information . This limb compression will act on the patient’s stabilisation and dynamic balance. We have also observed a reduction in muscular pain, which is useful for rehabilitation exercises.<\/p>\n Today, there is no solution to “cure” hemiplegia. GMOVE-SUIT can intervene as a proprioceptive support in rehabilitation phases or in daily life. Thanks to these benefits, the patient can regain a certain quality of life with the return of certain sensations, his independence thanks to better mobility and pain relief.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Find the Riona Kelly testimonial :<\/p>\n
