Sportstherapy
According to your individual needs there are at least 4 units of physical
exercise per week, consisting of two units of indoor and two units of
outdoor training. First the patients have to get used to physical activity
and at the same time their muscles - necessary for the endurance exercise -
have to be strengthened. Later an increase of the muscle mass is intended
to enlarge the resting body expenditure (increasing the relative muscle mass)
and to prevent orthopaedic imbalances especially in the spinal muscles.
Along with this muscle training an aerobic condition training is performed.
The patients are trained in three different groups according to their actual,
or increased physical fitness. This means an individual differentiation of
the training intensity, meaning a change every two months, beginning with
training in the water (swimming, aquajogging, water-gymnastics). A long
term goal of our therapy is to motivate our patients to a more active
life style with regular physical activity.
