Choice of intramuscular effect patching technique in cerebral palsy rehabilitation

  In my usual work, I have encountered many babies with brain injury or cerebral palsy who have abnormal posture, such as scissor step, pointed foot, inward and outward turning, internal and external figure of eight, airplane hand, thumb inward and so on. Let’s not discuss anything else here and discuss the use of abnormal posture correction methods for the lower limbs, how to use them? When to use? What type of aids are used for correction? First of all, let’s talk about corrective shoes and corrective insoles!  1, when exactly to choose corrective shoes or insoles? In my personal experience, when the baby has the ability to stand or needs to practice standing training with abnormal posture.  2.What should I wear during the day or both day and night? So far, except for the scissor step caused by high tone of the adductor muscle, other than the night is not suitable to wear, because lying in bed with no force on the bottom of the foot is basically ineffective. Only when standing when the sole of the foot is stressed will there be an effect.  3, then when exactly to wear long? Short corrective shoes? Or corrective insoles?  Can be short not choose long, must be long not choose short, can be long can be short. Can that baby’s motor function, joint control ability, orthopedic shoes control ability. If the use of corrective insoles can control and correct the abnormal posture we should never choose more than the ankle joint; conversely, if the baby knee ankle joint control ability is very poor we must choose over the knee knee ankle foot corrective shoes, if the hip knee ankle joint control ability are not good we have to choose a longer, choose a short one will have no effect or a new abnormal posture. I think we now have a certain understanding of the corrective shoes, corrective insoles should have.  Secondly, now we will talk to you again about the last two years in the rehabilitation of the hot new technology used to correct abnormal posture, intramuscular effect patching technology. Before we talk about this, let’s recall what we used to correct before the use of intramuscular patching in the field of rehabilitation, in addition to corrective shoes, etc.? That is the elastic bandage, elastic bandage is and surgical bandages have some resemblance, but different because he has elastic, wrapping method and surgical wrapping method is similar, in the process of winding the limb in a good functional position, not too tight not too loose, the winding requirements of the higher bad operation, easy to loosen open or slip off. So with the intramuscular effect patch basically do not need elastic band!  Because of these advantages of the intramuscular effect patch: 1, that is, thin close to the human skin design and breathable, and the direction of uniqueness, it is easy to control the force line effect, and can enhance the proprioceptive input.  2, not affected by body position. Whether lying or sitting or standing can play the effect, not affected by the body position, correction effect is significant.  3, the use of flexible time. Can also be taped at night to cut does not affect the baby’s sleep, wear corrective shoes at night both affect sleep and no effect. Intramuscular effect patch patch like a therapist’s technique in the baby keep doing treatment in general.  4, not subject to age restrictions. How big the baby can be used adults can also be used. Orthopedic shoes must be used only when you need to stand training. And can be used in conjunction with orthopedic shoes is also very good, daytime wearing orthopedic shoes standing walking night paste intramuscular effect patches. Okay to everyone finished. I hope you can understand clearly!
