Rehabilitation of the Spine – Lumbar and Thoracic Flexion with David G130

The David G130 is an innovative therapeutic device used in our medical center for physiotherapy and rehabilitation. It is designed to mobilize the lumbar and thoracic regions of the spine, activating the flexor muscles and providing effective treatment for patients with back pain and other related conditions.

Target Muscles

  • Rectus Abdominis (straight abdominal muscle): The primary muscle activated, aiding in strengthening the abdominal area and stabilizing the spine.

Recommended for Mobilizing and Strengthening the Lumbar and Thoracic Spine:

  • Disc herniation;
  • Spondylosis and degenerative spinal disorders;
  • Functional spinal impairments;
  • Chronic nonspecific back pain;
  • Acute lower back pain;
  • Post-spinal surgery recovery;
  • Rehabilitation after intervertebral disc surgeries;
  • Ankylosing spondylitis (Bechterew’s disease);
  • Spinal osteoarthritis;
  • Muscle weakness or atrophy following stroke or trauma;
  • Spasticity or limited mobility;
  • Prevention of back pain recurrence;
  • General stabilization of the spine.

Advantages and Adaptation of the David G130 Device

  • Spinal Mobilization:
    The device facilitates movement in the sagittal plane, activating the flexor muscles and improving mobility in the lumbar and thoracic regions.

  • Adjustable Range of Motion:
    Allows customization for different users while ensuring safety and efficiency.

  • Pelvic Fixation:
    A unique pelvic fixation system eliminates the involvement of strong hip flexors, directing the load to the abdominal area.

  • Automatic Adjustment:
    The electronic version provides automatic adjustment of the leg rest and seat for maximum comfort and personalization.

  • Monitoring:
    Equipped with functionality for strength and mobility tests, enhancing monitoring and the effectiveness of therapeutic programs.
