Abstract

Unstable proprioceptive table with substantially square shape, characterized in that it comprises a wooden board with a width between 30 and 40 cm, a length between 30 and 40 cm and an approximate thickness of 1.5 cm (1), on whose surface the subject will support the foot or feet, said board being painted or sealed with a non-slip material (2) and finished off with traces to achieve the correct degrees during the support (3) and in whose lower part there are two wooden balls of approximately 8-10 cms. In diameter, separated from each other by about 20-30 cms. (5) that allows to achieve an unstable effect, the total height of the profile being between 8-10 cm., as the sum of the height of the balls, plus the thickness of the table (7).

Game of unstable prooioceptive tables

SECTOR OF THE TECHNIQUE

The present invention belongs to the Functional Reeducation and Physiotherapy sector, and more specifically to the field of material used for the Proprioceptive Functional Reeducation of the lower extremities and lumbar spine.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

In the treatments of the Proprioceptive Functional Reeducation for the lower extremities, a gymnastic material free of the firmness of the foot of humans must be used in a proprioceptive recovery process for the lower limb.

There is currently no specific instrument for this action and that it works correctly because, as I indicated above, the proprioceptive gymnastic material is of a softness that can even introduce sensorimotor errors to the recovering patient.

EXPLANATION OF THE INVENTION

The inventor of the present application has developed this new material that solves the above problems thanks to the incorporation of firmness in the planes and their height, which allows greater accuracy in recovery, an essential requirement in the recovery of joints with more involvement in the population: ankle, knee and lumbar spine.

Short description of the three planes:

1. Substantial proprioceptive table substantially rectangular or square; table with two balls of diameter between 8 and 10 cm., placed below in the longest perpendicular of the table, with a separation between both balls of between 20-30 cm., responsible for producing the imbalance.

2. Substantially circular proprioceptive table, between 30-50 cm. in diameter and a ball of diameter between 8-10 cm., responsible for producing the imbalance, placed under the table, in the center of it. Table of greatest instability used after a training time with the first.

3. Unstable tilting proprioceptive table, the largest of the three, with the ideal measures for proprioceptive work of the knee and lumbar, with two arches under the support surface, approximately 3 cm. wide, responsible for imbalance and proprioceptive work.

There are, for the three tables, physiotherapy protocols for use, from lower to higher intensity and imbalance for proprioceptive work during Functional Recovery and Physiotherapy. These follow physiotherapeutic guidelines regarding the increase in work intensity and / or load and instability to be developed.

Finally, it should be noted that the modifications of these Tables in terms of the sliding of the support surface, or the imbalance height, etc., would lead to an increase in difficulty, or the possibility of working in segments of the body other than those indicated above. -ankle, knee or lumbar-, which would not represent any innovation.

10 PREFERRED EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION

Generally, the boards will be manufactured with okume wood because of their resistance and their low weight, being able to varnish, and always finishing the support surfaces with non-slip materials, 15 indicating the traces for the correct support of the feet.
