Nerve repair + Chinese medicine characteristic therapy + modern rehabilitation technology + family rehabilitation guidance = encephalopathy rehabilitation, which is the current “four-part therapy” for the treatment of pediatric cerebral palsy at home and abroad, especially for long-term high muscle tone, the four-part therapy can be effective in a short period of time. Our department features the following therapies.
Nerve repair treatment
Water acupuncture point injection therapy is a method to prevent and treat diseases by injecting nerve repairing Chinese and Western drugs into the relevant acupuncture points in the human body, which is a unique therapy based on the combination of Chinese medicine meridian theory, Western medicine soft tissue theory and drug treatment principle to combine the dual stimulation effect of acupuncture and drugs on the acupuncture points, and play a comprehensive effect to improve the curative effect. It is very effective in brain loss, brain underdevelopment, intellectual, hearing, vision, speech and movement disorders, abnormal muscle tone and muscle contracture. The dual stimulation of acupuncture and drugs is developed to improve the efficacy, quick effect, renewal effect and follow-up effect. Many patients end treatment when their condition is significantly reduced and not cured, but after stopping treatment for 0.5~2 months, the symptoms gradually disappear. This effect is in the fast-acting renewal effect based on the body repair into the virtuous cycle of the “inertia period” the body self-integration function is active.
Water injection in pediatric brain treatment in the main role: 1.
1, excite the cerebral cortex cells, improve intelligence;
2, promote blood circulation, promote the absorption of lesions, improve brain nerve function;
3, improve soft tissue compensatory capacity, correct abnormal posture;
4, two-way improvement of muscle tone, improve muscle strength;
5, improve hearing, vision, language.
Acupuncture head acupuncture, body acupuncture, ear acupuncture and other acupuncture treatments for cerebral palsy. Acupuncture treatment for cerebral palsy is based on the traditional Chinese medicine meridian theory, using a combination of head acupuncture and body acupuncture for comprehensive treatment, which plays the role of unblocking meridians, tonifying qi and blood, benefiting essence and filling marrow, tonifying kidney and strengthening spleen. Through the treatment, the qi and blood will be sufficient and run smoothly, the brain marrow will be filled, and the tendons and muscles will be moistened again, thus achieving the purpose of treating cerebral palsy.
Acupuncture treatment for cerebral palsy has the following therapeutic effects.
1. Awakening the brain and opening the mind, improving IQ;
2. Lowering muscle tone and relieving spasm;
3.Improve circulation and promote metabolism;
4.Regulate breathing and promote language;
5.Diversion of meridians, improve hearing;
6, increase muscle strength, improve balance;
7, improve coordination, correct gait;
Chinese medicine special treatment
Chinese medicine mainly adopts the methods of patching, pills, creams, and bulking orally, Chinese medicine hydrotherapy, and fumigation, etc. Chinese medicine therapy can achieve the relief of spasm, dredge the meridians, activate blood circulation, remove blood stasis, nourish the kidney and produce marrow, educate the brain, improve the blood circulation of the brain, activate brain cells, and promote brain cell repair and regeneration, etc.
Modern Rehabilitation Technology
The efficacy of functional training (PT) is to use various rehabilitation techniques such as Bother and Vojta to intervene and promote the abnormalities of motor functions or muscle tone that are developmentally delayed or stopped, as well as the inhibition of abnormal postural reflexes and abnormal movements to activate the central nerve cells, establish benign motor patterns early, and promote the benign cycle of motor functions, so that the gross motor and fine motor functions of cerebral palsy patients can be improved and The function of gross motor and fine motor in cerebral palsy can be improved and enhanced, so that the child’s motor function can reach or approach normal.
Massage and massage orthopedic techniques
Massage is an important method for the treatment of pediatric cerebral palsy, which has the functions of mediating yin and yang, unblocking meridians and channels, activating blood circulation and resolving blood stasis, and facilitating joints. It mainly includes popping and pulling method, one finger point method, diagnosis hammer percussion method, Manakova system massage method, segmental massage method, moving method, saw method, drilling method, traction method, shoulder, forearm rotation, scissor step and pointed foot and other abnormal posture correction methods.
The role of point massage
Point massage has the function of unblocking the qi and blood, harmonizing the internal organs, activating the blood and relieving spasm, and slipping the joints. Moderate, even and continuous massage techniques can achieve the purpose of regulating muscle tone, improving muscle strength, coordinating movement and triggering normal postural reflexes. To the high muscle tone, such as spastic type, tonic type, high tension hand-foot tachycardia type has the effect of relieving spasm. For low muscle tone, such as hypotonia, hypotonia hand-foot twitch type, with a strong stimulating technique, can improve muscle excitability in a very short period of time. The combination of point massage therapy and gong training is more effective in treating limb dysfunction.
The characteristics of pediatric tui na
1.Tui na points are mostly concentrated in the head, face and limbs.
2.In terms of massage techniques, our department emphasizes the gentle and realistic approach, requiring light and soft, smooth and realistic, and appropriate to reach the disease, forming a set of pediatric massage techniques and compound operation method, with massage, pinching, kneading, pushing, transporting, rubbing and shaking pediatric massage eight methods.
3, in clinical operation, one is to emphasize the operating procedures from the head, upper limbs, chest and abdomen, waist and back, and lower limbs; the second is to emphasize the tonic and diarrheal effects of the techniques; the third is to pay attention to the application of cream and the use of onion juice, ginger juice, talcum powder and other media for massage, which can protect the delicate skin from abrasion and enhance the therapeutic effect of the techniques.
EEG bionic electrical stimulation therapy (cerebral circulation)
Brain function electrical stimulation treatment is to give benign stimulation to brain nerve cells and brain blood vessels by imitating bioelectricity, so as to promote the effect of brain function recovery.
1.Improve the metabolic environment of brain cells, protect nerve cells, and enable damaged, or underdeveloped brain cells to be repaired as soon as possible.
2.Increase the blood flow in the brain, improve brain circulation, and provide as many material conditions as possible for the recovery of brain function.
3.Inhibit the reaction of brain disease, promote the absorption of edema, and relieve the pressure inside the skull and brain.
The biggest advantage of brain circulation is that it can penetrate the skull and blood-brain barrier, send bionic waves to the deep part of the brain, have rapid growth of brain development in a short period of time, improve brain function, and is painless and without side effects, which is very suitable for children’s treatment. It is especially effective in treating cerebral palsy, hydrocephalus, encephalitis, strabismus and other symptoms.
Meridian Conductive Therapy
The Meridian Conductive Therapy Instrument is a modern treatment instrument for Chinese medicine based on the theory of traditional meridians in Chinese medicine and integrated with high-tech technology. It stimulates the pathological meridian points through computer-controlled high-voltage electric pulse signals connected to the body points, which can rapidly unblock the meridians, replenish the meridian qi and blood, restore the body function, enhance the body’s immunity, and adjust the balance of yin and yang to achieve the purpose of curing diseases. It is effective in treating weakness, functional weakness and meridian conduction disorders caused by encephalopathy, and helps limbs to recover coordination and stability of movement.
The role of wax therapy in the rehabilitation of encephalopathy
1.Reducing muscle tone: relieving muscle spasm.
2.Improve circulation: promote metabolism to facilitate the absorption of drugs.
3.Increase muscle strength: increase joint mobility and improve balance.
4, improve coordination: correct gait, correct abnormal posture.
5.Thermal effect: It facilitates the absorption of hematoma, accelerates the decreasing of edema, and enhances the phagocytosis of reticuloendothelial cells, improves metabolism, and improves skin nutrition.
6.Mechanical compression effect: During the cooling process, its volume is reduced, which can produce a gentle mechanical compression effect on the skin and subcutaneous tissues, which can prevent lymphatic fluid and blood exudation in the tissues and promote the absorption of exudates.
7.It makes the local blood vessels dilate, promotes blood circulation and strengthens the permeability of cells.
Spasm Therapy Instrument
The treatment of spasm therapy instrument can play the following roles
1.Relax the spastic muscles through cross-stimulation, etc;
2.Delay the atrophy of diseased muscles;
3.Prevent the muscle from losing a lot of water, prevent the destruction of electrolyte and enzyme system;
4.Preserve the normal function of connective tissue in muscles and prevent their contracture and interfascicular cohesion;
5.Inhibit muscle fibrosis, prevent the thickening, shortening and hardening of muscle connective tissue;
6.Promote the recovery of muscle motor function and restore the motor function of muscle.
In summary, the spasticity treatment instrument can excite the neuromuscular tissue, reduce the muscle tone of spastic muscles, prevent muscle stiffness, contracture and fibrosis, help the child to quickly establish voluntary movement and avoid rigidity of movement.
Muscle excitation therapy device
Most cerebral palsy patients have reduced or lost active motor function due to the effect of muscle tone. Myoexcitator can accurately locate the motor points of the muscles of the upper or lower limbs, directly excite the neuromuscular tissues, produce complete movement in the treated muscles, counteract muscle spasm, enhance muscle strength and improve gait.
Practice shows that the use of muscle exciters can improve muscle tone 2-3 times faster than unarmed training, and through a period of use, it can simultaneously inhibit the patient’s poor posture.
Family rehabilitation guidance
Parental involvement in rehabilitation therapy. Cerebral palsy rehabilitation is a long-term process, and it is impossible to solve all the problems with only about one hour of training per day by the therapist. In order to ensure that the patient gets effective treatment, it is necessary to let parents learn and participate in some of the common rehabilitation methods.
