What is Movement Therapy?
Kinesiotherapy，literally movement therapy is a therapeutic treatment of disease by passive and active muscular movements (as by massage) and exercise. It is a core element of physiotherapy/physical therapy.
Movement therapy is a kind of training method that uses instruments, bare hands, or the patient’s strength to recover the whole body or local motor function and sensory function through some movement modes (active or passive movement, etc.).
How does movement therapy benefit you?
Movement therapy is an effective rehabilitation exercise. This article will introduce some of the advantages of Movement therapy.
Prevent myatrophy
Myatrophy is mainly caused by muscle diseases or nervous system dysfunction. In addition to the pathological changes of the muscle tissue itself, muscle nutritional status is closely related to the nervous system. Spinal cord diseases often lead to muscular dystrophy and muscle atrophy. Adhering to movement therapy can help prevent myatrophy.
Prevent Osteoporosis
Osteoporosis is a kind of decrease in bone density and bone quality due to many reasons. In patients with osteoporosis, the bone microstructure is destroyed, resulting in increased bone fragility, so fractures are prone to occur. The pain of osteoporosis itself can reduce the quality of life of patients and limit their activities. Osteoporosis can make patients unable to take care of themselves and increase the risk of lung infection. Therefore, it is essential to adhere to long-term movement therapy.
Improve blood circulation
The primary significance of blood circulation is to ensure the metabolism of the body. Each tissue of the animal body obtains various nutrients, water, and oxygen from the blood and uses these substances to ensure the normal function of the human body. At the same time, the carbon dioxide, urea, and other wastes produced by metabolism are discharged to the blood and then discharged from the respiratory and excretory organs. Movement therapy can improve blood circulation and make your body healthier.
Improve joint mobility and muscle endurance
The common causes of an abnormal range of motion include pain and muscle spasm caused by joint, soft tissue, and bone lesions; soft tissue shortening and contracture caused by muscle imbalance and chronic bad posture; intraarticular injury; muscle paralysis or weakness caused by various diseases; motor control disorders, etc. Movement therapy can help improve joint mobility and muscle endurance.
