Programs
PROGRAMS The disability dimension concerns behaviors or activities considered essential, such as communicating, moving, eating, bathing, concentrating, etc. may be dependent on another person to carry out these acts considered vital. Through our programs we provide physical rehabilitation therapies as well as medical consultations to people with a permanent disability, temporary disability, whether caused by accident, congenital or derived from any disease, in addition to having programs focused on the prevention of physical disabilities. , in groups with chronic or degenerative diseases, seeking to reduce any deficiency or any partial or total reduction in the ability to develop an activity or function.
MOVE ME: Program focused on caring for people with physical disabilities, whether permanent or temporary, derived from diseases, accidents or congenital, seeking that patients can partially or totally recover their mobility, focusing efforts on Improvement and to prevent atrophies or chronic discomfort associated with your disability. Likewise, it helps to improve other possible skills or physical abilities to achieve the highest degree of self-sufficiency. Here, programs are developed aimed at promoting not only their physical rehabilitation, but also integration and equal opportunities for people with disabilities, because the improvements help them to participate and interact in their social context to a greater degree, that is, , who can perform the greatest number of tasks possible in their school, work, social or family environment, improving the general physical condition and emotional state of the patients. Actions of the MOVE ME program: -Preventive, through the use of electro stimulation as well as rehabilitation exercises, loss of strength and muscle atrophy, neuropathy are avoided, in addition to preventing the progression of some diseases. -Curative, through the use of electro stimulation as well as rehabilitation exercises, sensitivity, tone and muscle strength are recovered, reduction and/or elimination of pain (neuropathy), partial or total regeneration of nerve damage (neuropraxia and axonotmesis). -Maintenance, through the use of electro stimulation as well as rehabilitation exercises, the patient’s neurological, motor and sensory recovery is maintained.
ACTIVATE ME: Program focused on the prevention of limb amputation in people who suffer from type 1 or type 2 diabetes. Complications that usually appear in diabetes can be damage to the nerves (peripheral neuropathy) and poor blood circulation (peripheral arterial disease ) especially in the lower extremities, problems that can generate sores on the feet, which due to the conditions of the disease prevent proper healing, causing serious damage to tissues and bones, leading to amputation of a toe, the entire foot or a leg. part of the leg. Lower limb amputations in diabetic patients are more common than in non-diabetics and five out of six amputations occur in diabetes. Statistics reveal that 25% of hospital admissions among diabetics are for foot injuries and of those with diabetic foot, 40% require amputations, 50-70% of all non-traumatic amputations occur in diabetics. Actions of the ACTIVATE ME program: 1.- Reference and medical consultation regarding diabetes control. 2.- Evaluation of vascular status, through clinical evaluation of venous filling time and measurement of the ankle-brachial index calculated by Doppler spectrum analysis, will reveal spectral broadening, an increase in maximum systolic velocity and a monophasic wave pattern. 3.- Evaluation of possible infection in the tissue planes and underlying tissues by means of a simple x-ray of the part. 4.- Placement and use of electrostimulation because this can be an effective alternative and complementary therapy to current interventions for diabetic peripheral neuropathy. 5.- All patients are classified according to the degree of the Wagner-Merrit Scale and the treatment protocol is adapted according to the degree of involvement.
RENEW ME: Program focused on the care of older adults who suffer from a disability caused by age, as well as the prevention of sarcopenia, which is a predominantly geriatric disease, with a gradual loss of skeletal muscle mass and a loss of muscle function. ; which increases the risk of disability, falls and fall-related injuries, hospitalization, limitation of independence and mortality. As the world’s population ages, the prevalence of age-related muscle loss will increase, malnutrition and low physical activity appear to be the two main factors associated with sarcopenia. An adequate exercise regimen, accompanied by nutritional interventions, should be of great importance for a better prognosis of sarcopenic and geriatric patients. Actions of the RENOVARME program 1.- Preventive and curative.- Placement and use of electro stimulation as well as physical exercises to improve muscle function and strength in patients. 2.- Medical evaluations using the diagnostic guide on sarcopenia of the European Working Group on Sarcopenia in Older People (EWGSOP). 3.- Consultation and nutritional guide.
