Jak power plate pomáhá v rehabilitaci - studie

SITUATION
Michal Hancik, co-owner of CrossFit Pezinok, is a renowned therapist in Slovakia, specialising in the rehabilitation of patients affected by paralysis, a loss of muscle function for one or more muscles. Paralysis is most often caused by damage to the nervous system, especially the spinal cord. Other major causes include stroke, trauma with nerve injury, cerebral palsy, and Parkinson’s disease to name a few.
In particular, Michal has trained his business partner, and local celebrity, Bekim, who was a professional cyclist when his career ended with a serious accident at the bike race in Prerov, Czech Republic. He broke the fourth cervical near it and crushed the fi fth cervical vertebrae, which pushed the spinal cord and caused it to become paralysed.

USING POWER PLATE
Having used Power Plate for a trial period, Michal decided incorporate vibration training into the rehabilitation programme for Bekim. Using Power Plate he was able to;
• Increase muscle strength and tone
• Reduce intensity of spasms
• Increase range of motion in multiple areas
• Improve balance
“Power Plate works to relax the muscle cramps of my patient within 30 seconds, allowing them to resume exercises quickly, signifi cantly reducing the risk of injury,” says Mišo Hancik.

ACHIEVEMENTS
Michal Hancík has been training Bekim for several years, and they now co-own CrossFIt Pezinok, a fully wheelchair accessible CrossFit gym, where there is a strong ethos of not training alone. The training centre is a place where people with disabilities can practice and develop,
whilst motivating each other. After incorporating vibration training into Bekims rehabilitation programme, Michal Hancík is now planning to introduce Power Plate to all major private health clinics in Slovakia and Czech Republic.
Thanks to Michal Hancík, Bekim can now stand on his feet and continues to strengthen and build muscle tone in his legs.
