  Massage with a special device

  Attempts to make a mechanical effect (massage) the patient's body surface to start a long time. Invented a number of different devices, which may facilitate the work of a masseur, while recovery is stronger (and versatile) effect than is possible by manual massage. However, the extra-wide mechanical massage practice started only when it was fully explained by the physiological effects of vibration body.

  It was originally designed to offer machines that can be used to perform some massage action to evidence-based outcomes, using appropriate methods of treatment.

  Apparatus has greatly facilitated the application of vibration and greatly expanded the possibilities of this method. Hand-held vibration application is not always possible and for some, the specific anatomical - massaged the area of ​​topographical features (such as the nasal cavity or rectum). Massaging apparatus, the vibration can be done for long enough, and special tips - vibrator - help massage and even in places where the masseur hands can not reach.
  Specific regulators, which are applied to such machines, allows the vibration dose effect, preserving the patient's health and masseur forces. Nevertheless, despite all the benefits of massaging machines, no measure can not fully replace the massage, which is owned and deliberately carried out by the human hand that can not only determine the state of tissues and detected the slightest counter-reaction of the body, but also to adapt to the anatomical-topographical features of the human body. Given the changes that occur during a massage, the masseur at any moment can switch between massage intensity and nature of the action, at the same time working with both hands, which really is not possible, the massage device. In addition, the mechanical vibration massage only complements manual therapy and massage, reinforces its effects, while increasing, and physiological effects of this treatment method.

  Vibration devices for reducing the volume can be divided into two groups: local effects and overall functioning.

  Impact on local machines are usually compact, light weight, small size, they can get the same vibration, renew the masseurs hands, and special controllers can change the virpamųjų movement frequency and amplitude.
  Currently produced in various vibratory machines, which create a Magnet principles of operation and powered by an AC source. Vibe of rubber, ebonite or metal. Powerful vibrators are used for intensive and deep tissue massage, softer - mild surface rub.

  In order to effect a vibrator as far as possible, softer, its head is attached to the top of the masseurs hands, and his finger ends are placed on the patient's body. In this way, virpamieji movements transmitted through the masseur's hand. Such a method is called indirect vibration. It applies particularly sensitive and painful areas. Similar approach has been to create a flat plate vibrators, coated with a porous layer of rubber.

  Vibrator in the form of diversity. It partly depends on the anatomical-topographical features and massaged the area from the effects of tissue specificity - deep or shallow. If the effects of vibration transmitted to the body-surface area, the rubber used in flat or semi-circular tip ebonitinis.
  Hairy head coverings used in massage vibrator head flat with some papillae, similar to a toothbrush, and other painful facial massage surface - flat, rubber coated koringa (or - in the form of rubber piltuviškos) head, back, chest, abdomen, extremities massage - spherical (or semi-circular) shape ebonitinis vibrator tip; nerve output to the body surface of the massage places - a small, round rubber head, throat, nasal cavity, the prostate gland (as well as gynecological) massage - a special vibe mounts.

  These tips can help make a vibrating stroke, erasure or pressure. From mechanical vibrations can be stable irritate painful points or nerve exits. As a labile type of activity in the method is applicable to the damaged nerve branching points in neuritis and neuralgia. Using elektrovibratorių his nenuspaudžiama handle, and as nearly at an end. In order to machine failure, a vibrator can not press too heavily massaged to the surface.

  Overall functioning of the apparatus for whole-body exposure. Most of them - stationary, large-scale. They can get up to several tens of thousands of vibrations per minute. There are also simpler and overall functioning of the apparatus, which is dependent on the patient's leg muscle strength.

  The simplest overall functioning of the machine is vibrating chair, the seat is mounted on a special spring. Chair starts to work, it activates the electric motor įtaisytam. Oscillation frequency can be adjusted for the effects of vibration can be very precise dosing, giving the patient the optimal (procedure duration and intensity) levels.

  A simple model for the overall functioning of the device could also be a Hoffa machine. Using this apparatus, passive tissue sukratymai coincides with the active patient's leg movements. The device structure recalls the bicycle frame, which is attached to the floor. Saddle joint merging system connected to the toothed vairalazdėmis and Welsh. The patient sat down to the saddle and in accordance with the steering wheel, foot pedals, turning the circuit connected. At the saddle spreads virpamuosius movements. The stronger was broken pedals, the higher the vibration frequency.
