The advantages of the <strong><a href="http://airdriephysiotherapy.com/physiotherapy-equipment/miofeedback-in-physiotherapy/index.html">Miofeedback technique</a></strong> allow:<br />
* Direct observation of the therapeutic activity, both the patient and the <strong><a href="http://airdriephysiotherapy.com/category/therapist">therapist</a></strong>.<br />
* The patient quickly understand and learn the task assigned.<br />
* The patient is encouraged in their level of participation.<br />
* You can see the evolution of the process objective.<br />
* May apply modifications to avoid errors or adapt to changes.<br />
* The method or protocol is customized for each patient.<br />
* It helps in the process of paralysis.<br />
* It is a safe method (except in intracavitary applications).<br />
* Allows you to treat children by the ease of adapting to the computer entertainment gadgets.<br />
* Lets try it facilitates the concentration of elderly in therapy.<br />
* Can be used by patients with some level of intellectual disability.</p>
<p><strong>Disadvantages of the Miofeedback technique</strong><br />
* It takes good quality equipment and high performance.<br />
* For incontinence therapies requires appropriate facilities, specific working methodologies, domain and very specific expertise in these techniques and hygiene care with the material.<br />
* The parasitic electrical waves abound and frequently alter the normal treatment.<br />
* The care and handling of electrodes and wires for the patient should be exquisite.<br />
* The small and portable equipment greatly limit the possibilities of therapy.</p>
<p><strong><span id="more-258"></span>Method of Work</strong><br />
Active (positive or increasing muscle activity, strengthening). Improvements to other biological activities.<br />
Passive (negative or control in reducing muscle activity, relaxation). Control of declining biological activities.</p>
<p><strong>Miofeedback combination With electrical stimulation</strong><br />
The detected <strong><a href="http://airdriephysiotherapy.com/tag/miofeedback-in-physiotherapy">miofeedback</a></strong> voluntary muscle activity. The electrical stimulation causes involuntary muscle contraction. The electrodes must be different for each function</p>
<p>Active work can take place both at the time of stimulation as in the detection. The team (or teams) should be well coordinated to separate stimulation of detecting myoelectric</p>
<p>Processes will be implemented in peripheral partial paralysis, selective toning a muscle fascicle and muscle atrophy global</p>
<p>This technique is typical of fatigue incontinence pelvic floor. Many other muscles can be developed also with the technical and electrostimulation miofeedback</p>

<p><strong>The practitioner develops its work in four main areas:</strong><br />
* Assistance: work to promote, prevent, cure and alleviate the health of patients using the breadth of knowledge acquired in their training.<br />
* Teacher: your job is to educate and promote knowledge of physiotherapy in the public and private colleges as well as training proposals called for continued training of the <strong>physiotherapist</strong>.<br />
* Researchers: your job is to find scientific evidence of the modes of action of physiotherapy, offering the patient, therefore, those actions with greater guarantees of success, proven scientifically valid studies of the scientific community.<br />
* Management and Administration : carry out his work in the direction of health care centers, educational or professional associations.</p>
<p><strong>What is it and does a physical therapist?</strong><br />
Based on the current concept of health, physical therapists operate from three levels: primary (prevention, education and empowerment), secondary (healing process) and tertiary (treatment of diseases and functional recovery in chronic and processes already in place).</p>
<p><strong><span id="more-254"></span>As will be live in:</strong><br />
* Schools of integration (enabling children with different disabilities to access education. Adaptation of the academic curriculum to the needs and actual capacities of the child).<br />
* Special schools (children and youth with a skill level that require specific institutions).<br />
* Fitness centers and sports clubs (enhances performance by correcting the sporting gesture and immediate recovery of the lesions).<br />
* Health Centers (plowing Health education, promoting self-care, birth preparedness, treatment and monitoring of certain minor and chronic processes).<br />
* General hospitals (Physiotherapy units within the department of Rehabilitation that includes Speech Therapy, Occupational Therapy, Orthopedics, Psychology ,&#8230;).<br />
* Hospitals and specialized services (paraplegic, burns, major neurological syndromes, transplant, respiratory, cardiac ,.)<br />
* Psychiatric Hospitals.<br />
* Homes for the Elderly (preventive-therapeutic work that seek to improve quality of life in the elderly).<br />
* Cabinets private (with the traditional and innovative aspects such as animal physiotherapy, rehabilitation Urogynaecological ,&#8230;).<br />
* Mutual funds and private insurance business.<br />
* Associations and SHGs.<br />
* Day centers (facilities of residential social services were not improving the state looking for bio-psycho-physical being of the elderly without detracting from their usual environment ,&#8230;).<br />
* Centers of education (health branch Vocational Schools, University of Physiotherapy ,&#8230;).<br />
* Spas and Spa.<br />
* Companies (operator ergonomics consultant to minimize occupational hazards).<br />
* Animal Physiotherapy Centres (racetracks, zoos, veterinary centers ,&#8230;).<br />
* Management and administrative posts.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">Linguistically, the terms come physiotherapy and physical therapy from the Greek word physis (= nature) from. Basic principles of physiotherapy is to exercise stimuli to the organism, which in its natural environment are already available. Such stimuli can include the application of heat or cold, or the execution of specific active or passive movements. All of these stimuli, ie heat, cold, and movements of the body already knows from everyday life. In contrast, the stimuli appear in<a href="http://airdriephysiotherapy.com/history-of-physiotherapy/areas-of-physical-therapy/index.html"><strong><em> physical therapy</em></strong></a> but not random and undirected one on the organism, but also consciously controlled and targeted manner. One such example is the local application of refrigeration in inflammatory processes.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Finally, the stimuli to fulfill a purpose or a therapeutic aim: They should produce an active response of the organism. These responses come from the natural range of physical reactions. It&#8217;s automatic, for example, the skin <img class="alignright" title="physiotheraphy" src="http://www.voelklingen-lebt-gesund.de/images/aktionen-projekte/2008-09-physiomed1.jpg" alt="" width="232" height="143" />responds to a cold stimulus at first with white blaze, later reactive with redness and warming. Such <a href="http://airdriephysiotherapy.com/category/history-of-physiotherapy"><em><strong>natural reactions controls </strong></em></a>the involuntary nervous system. Does it have to respond again to the same stimulus, in his answer will change sooner or later something. To be therapeutically effective the stimulus, however, affect more than once &#8211; series, he must, wherever possible, term treatment are used.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Besides the direct response and change in this response over time, the <a href="http://airdriephysiotherapy.com/category/physiotherapy-affects"><em><strong>physical therapy procedures</strong></em></a> have usually also indirect effects. For example, the repeated application of heat and cold stimuli, alternating the body acclimatise to colds.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">Fango, Kneipp and massage &#8211; this is the one most people spontaneously, when it comes to<a href="http://airdriephysiotherapy.com/category/history-of-physiotherapy"><em><strong> physical therapy</strong></em></a> or physical therapy. Some people think then perhaps even to the physiotherapy. In the physical therapy has much more to offer.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The first confusion rises at the concept: what <a href="http://airdriephysiotherapy.com/history-of-physiotherapy/what-is-physiotherapy/index.html"><em><strong>physical therapy is different from physical therapy</strong></em></a>? There are different opinions. While the <img class="alignleft" title="physical theraphy" src="http://www.physioswiss.ch/download/Physio_mit_Patient_1.1.JPG" alt="" width="160" height="255" />talk of a physical therapy and physiotherapy in the same breath and with it the same thing, others turn a difference. Even the legislature is not entirely conclusive: on one hand he speaks of a &#8220;physical therapist law,&#8221; the other, he says elsewhere, &#8220;Physical Therapy&#8221;.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Sometimes it is also dependent on the profession, which term is preferred: doctors often talk about the Physical Therapy, physiotherapists and masseurs are rather of the physiotherapy. Physiotherapists and masseurs further training call themselves physiotherapists, doctors konnnen &#8220;Specialist in <a href="http://airdriephysiotherapy.com/category/history-of-physiotherapy"><strong><em>Physical Medicine</em></strong></a> to be&#8221; or the suffix &#8220;take physical therapy.&#8221; The Physical Therapy in turn is part of Physical Medicine.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">Infarction of the lower region of the myocardium: dark red, the necrotic area of the wall of the heart muscle. <a href="http://airdriephysiotherapy.com/tag/thermotherapy"><em><strong>Myocardial infarction</strong></em></a> (MI is an abbreviation) is a necrosis (cell death) of a portion of heart muscle. In common parlance, we call most often a<a href="http://airdriephysiotherapy.com/"><em><strong> heart attack</strong></em></a>. It occurs when one or more <a href="http://airdriephysiotherapy.com/tag/cardiovascular-disease"><em><strong>coronary arteries</strong></em></a> become blocked, cells in the myocardium (the muscle forming the heart) irrigated by this (these) artery (s) are then more oxygen, causing their suffering (pain) and may lead to their death (myocardial scar that usually persist). The area &#8220;infarcted&#8221; does incur more correctly.</p>
