Treatment Traditional and Imaginary Motor Program

Amputees patients also conservative protocol will undergo physiotherapy techniques work Imaginary Motor. The first video will include two sequences of a harmonic gear that will allow the patient to examine, with the physiotherapist, the characteristics of the different body segments involved in locomotion and place the member in space. The second video include an analysis in five phases: a) relaxation of Benson, b) phase external imagination where cycles of normal running on a video provided by the physiotherapist, c) phase internal imagination where the patient will identify the problem discussed compared with the normal course presented in the video, d) recreation of images in the first person made an e normalized locomotion) closing his eyes, prompted the patient to mentally recreate sequences normal gait and analyzed and subsequently verbalize differences of these with respect to their own way of getting around.
