The growing popularity of sports world wide has made the sports industry to think about level of advanced rehabilitation and training with requires modern rehab technology. The scientific and clinical rationale for the use of isokinetic evaluation and rehab of sports injuries plays significant role in facilitating the examination, treatment and performance enhancement of the athlete. Let’s know more about the Primus.
PRIMUS (Isokinetic): Robotic assisted multifunctional advance device which is effective in sports, musculoskeletal and later stage of neuro rehabilitation.
Key Features –
1. Controlled Movement and Resistance: Isokinetic provide a constant speed of movement regardless of the force applied by the patient. This allows for precise control over the resistance, which can be adjusted to suit the patient’s strength and rehabilitation needs.
2. Accurate Measurement of Muscle Strength: Isokinetic can accurately measure muscle strength and imbalances. This data is crucial for developing personalized rehabilitation programs and tracking progress over time.
3. Enhanced Safety: Isokinetic can adjusts the resistance automatically to the user’s effort, there is a lower risk of injury compared to traditional weightlifting, where the user must manage both the weight and their form.
4. Improved Muscle Strength and Endurance: Isokinetic exercises can be tailored to target specific muscle or muscle groups, helping to improve overall strength and endurance. This can also prevent muscle wasting in patient with physical disability and prolonged period of inactivity after post-operative cases especially in neurological conditions like spinal cord injury, later stage of stroke etc.
5. Balanced Muscle Development: Isokinetic can isolate specific muscles, helping to address muscle imbalances and ensure balanced muscle development, which is essential for overall body mechanics and injury prevention.
6. Range of Motion: Isokinetic helps to perform through a full range of motion, which helps in maintaining or improving flexibility and joint health.
7. Feedback and Motivation: Isokinetic device provide real-time feedback, which can motivate patients by showing their progress and encouraging them to meet rehabilitation goals.
8. Versatility: Isokinetic can be used for a variety of exercises, making them suitable for different types of rehabilitation, including post-operative recovery, sports injuries and chronic conditions.
Overall, isokinetic device offer a highly effective and safe way to assess and improve muscular strength and function of each joint complex, making them a valuable tool in physiotherapy. Adams Wylie Physio Rehab Centre, Mumbai is using Primus – Isokinetic device as an advance rehabilitation method for sports, Musculoskeletal and neurologic disorders which is showing remarkable improvement in all the aspects.
