If you suffer from Parkinson disease, we in Israel have new way developed for the last 20 years to treat the involuntarily tremor which is adjuvant to your medication.
What is Gyro Kinetics?
Gyro kinetics or G.K. is a rehabilitation method that simultaneously combines:
Functional movements (ACTIVE), which help regain lost functionality and reverse the deterioration caused by the disease
Therapeutic massage (PASSIVE) which stimulates vibrations through the body, evoking the body's homeostatic healing reflex, thereby helping to reverse the stages of deterioration
"Gyro" comes from "Gyro-scope" (an instrument showing a balanced state) "Kinetics" means physical movements
Therefore G.K. means bringing the body to a Homeostatic state; or coherence between the different body organisms and parts (balanced state). In this case we also refer to coherence between the Psycho-logic, Bio-logic and Physiologic Inter-relationship.
In the G.K. Center we came to the conclusion that "Active and Passive" sessions have best results on our patients !
The P.D. patient must take responsibility to his condition and practice daily in order to achieve the required target !
The formula to success is "hard work", and the belief that the patient can achieve his goal with the help of a professional G.K coach ; who really knows the "P.D Puzzle".
How do we build our program ?
At the beginning the P.D. patient has to be diagnosed by a professional and qualified G.K. therapist.
The diagnosis : takes approximately an hour. The patient is being questioned about his condition, in order for both sides to learn about the "kind" and stage of Parkinson the patient has.
In many cases the patient is not aware to his real condition, because of his involvement with the disease and acts according to Parkinsonian habits of behavior, and finds these habits as natural.
The therapist checks the different physiologic conditions of the patient : Breathing
Facial expressions
Concentration
Moods
Posture
Movements (hands, feet, falling, getting up, turning etc.)
Freezing / Dyskinesia
The G.K. therapist builds a personal program.
The program is made of weekly sessions of 1 hour each. Time frame and other variables will be decided according to patients state.
When the patient achieves the required standards, improves and restores his optimistic view of life, we decide together, what further steps to take.
Usually the patient continues to come to the G.K. Center for private sessions on daily/weekly / two week / or monthly basis, for better maintenance.
We in the G.K. Center try, by the help of our method and techniques, to improve the physiologic condition, the functioning of the Autonomic nervous system (A.N.S.) and improve the natural pharmacology of the patient in order to deal better with his medication.
Every patient must see his neurologist from time to time in order to receive a medical feed back about his condition; and in most cases improvement is seen in the G.K. patient.
