1.Functional Evaluation & Training System- Isokinetic System
ISOKINETIC SYSTEM
Without a system that provides Isokinetics, you simply can't rehabilitate or strengthen joints and their surrounding musculature in the fastest, safest and most efficient manner possible
Humac Norm (Cybex) = HUMAC NORM is your solution for measuring and improving human performance. Only with testing can you determine baselines, set goals, and track change.
Most physical rehabilitation involving rang-of-motion and force output requires four basic modes of evaluation and exercise/training:
PASSIVE –
Subject co-operate with the equipment in extension/flexion through a certain range-of-motion. In Passive Mode, gentle range of motion exercise can facilitate the healing process and restore normal range of motion necessary for function.
ISOMETRIC-
Concentrates on strengthening of muscles at certain specific angles where weakness is measured.
ISOTONIC – Subject exercises at constant inertia but varying the speed.
ISOKINETIC – Here the force applied by the subject which is the angular velocity, remains constant throughout the range of motion.
The HUMAC NORM includes attachments to perform 22 isolated patterns covering the shoulder, elbow, wrist, hip, knee, ankle and back.
Single attachment for bilateral evaluation of upper & lower extremities (all joints), Avoiding need to change or reset attachments when changing sides.
Work Simulation Handles and knobs of different sizes and shapes simulate a variety of real-time hand/wrist movements: From turning a doorknob or opening a jar, to operating a valve or wheel.
