What is a Shoulder flexionator?

What is a Shoulder flexionator?

The Shoulder Flexionater is designed to first improve external rotation and then abduction. An antirotation bar keeps the patient in place while working external rotation, while a pad atop the shoulder keeps the joint in place while working.

What is a Flexanator?

The knee/ankle flexionator is a variable load/variable position device that uses a hydraulic pump and quick-release mechanism to allow patients to perform dynamic stretching exercises in the home without assistance, alternately stretching and relaxing the scar tissue surrounding affected joints.

What is an Ermi Flexinator?

The high-intensity Ermi Knee Flexionater helps restore motion, reducing the occurrence of reoperation and other complications. The Flexionater can generate loads from zero to several hundred foot-pounds of torque to accommodate the specific mechanical characteristics of scar tissue found in each patient.

Does the dynasplint work?

Dynasplint knee and elbow devices were found to be highly effective and efficient tools for speeding recovery from immobilization stiffness and to correct established contractures in 13 subjects who had suffered elbow fractures (8), knee fractures (2), surgeries (2), and a stroke (1).

What is an Ermi mold test?

The ERMI test involves the analysis of a single sample of dust from a home. The sample is analyzed using mold-specific quantitative polymerase chain reaction (MSQPCR), a highly specific DNA-based method for quantifying mold species.

Is the dynasplint painful?

NO PAIN while wearing the Dynasplint® System. 2. Time is the most important component.

What does the dynasplint do?

Dynasplint Systems are gentle stretching devices that help increase joint range of motion. The Dynasplint System provides a low tension to your restricted soft tissue, allowing application for prolonged periods of time.

How do I know if mold is making me sick?

Symptoms of mold exposure may include headache, sore throat, runny nose, coughing, sneezing, watery eyes and fatigue. In those with asthma, asthma attacks can occur. In those with impaired immune systems, serious infection can occur.

How accurate is Ermi test?

Accuracy. DNA mold analysis is 99.99% accurate. Out of all the other mold testing methods, the best is 56% accurate. No other test will provide data nearly as reliable as MSQPCR, which ERMI uses.

Does dynasplint really work?

What causes pain in the rotator cuff of the shoulder?

Rotator cuff impingement. A rotator cuff impingement happens when there is irritation, inflammation, or compression of the tendons or bursa (the fluid-filled sac that sits between bones) in the shoulder. An impingement can be caused by an injury, but it can also just result from general wear and tear from daily life.

What is the Ermi shoulder flexionator used for?

The shoulder flexionator (ERMI Shoulder Flexionater) is designed to isolate and treat decreased glenohumeral abduction and external rotation. The device is intended to addresses the needs of patients with excessive scar tissue.

Why does my shoulder hurt when I Lift my Arm?

You may have pain when lifting the arm above your head or moving it forward or behind your back. The most common cause of shoulder pain occurs when rotator cuff tendons become trapped under the bony area in the shoulder. The tendons become inflamed or damaged.

What to do if you have rotator cuff pain?

A physical therapist can help you do this safely. Taking ibuprofen or acetaminophen (such as Tylenol) may help reduce inflammation and pain. Rotator cuff problems can be treated at home also. If you have had shoulder pain before, use ice and ibuprofen after exercising.
