Gait training for prosthesis walking
2020-07-01 Hits：
And be sure to grasp the point is: the body "center of gravity to be positive"!
In general, as long as no residual limb itself or making problems, in the prosthetic halt, "center is the bearing center" of the body, i.e. legs in front of the residual limb in the middle of fibula the protuberant part, "receiving want is" in other words, it also should be based on "central axis" as a benchmark of the prosthesis, and the residual limb appropriately "or" appropriate, impartial!
This is one of the key conditions for moving forward in a "positive" and steady manner.
At the beginning of exercise, the pace can be small and slow, the stride should not be too large, the amplitude of body shaking as small as possible, and it is best to develop a good habit of walking with chest out and abdomen in.
After a period of proficiency, if you walk well, you can really achieve a better state so that people who don't know can't see that you're a mutilated person;
Even with the double leg prosthesis, the habit is natural, and the speed and the mileage, it can almost approach the able-bodied people walk very well and very quickly.
Of course, everything depends on the individual one.
Because the physical basis of the individual and the stump condition is different, so no one can guarantee that everyone can reach the ideal standard, and the so-called good, in everyone's mind can not be generalized;
Besides, prosthesis is a foreign thing after all, far less than the flesh and blood limbs we were born with, and can only be used as a means of transportation. Out of helplessness, it has become an inseparable part of our lives.
But it's also true that Human effort is the decisive factor. If you care about the problem of walking, it is best to train yourself consciously on the basis of "two straight" (straight waist, straight knees) and "positive center of gravity": when walking at ordinary times, develop the good habit of "positive head, flat shoulders, straight body", which is also an easy to remember the "twelve words formula".
Believe that as long as can insist for a long time, carefully to grasp the "smooth, natural" gait, no matter how the stump condition, you can walk relatively better than the original better;
But if you don't care about it, if you're open and don't mind people looking at you, then it doesn't matter if you walk well.
In fact, because each prosthesis patient's body condition is different, walking gait also has good and bad situation.
Even imported leg prostheses and thigh prostheses can have unsatisfactory moments.
Therefore, as long as in the ordinary use, the stump feels normal, there is no local grinding pain grinding problem, especially without affecting our normal life learning, work, go out, etc., this is the most important. You don’t have to care about walking posture is not good or bad "appearance".
