What is GYROTONIC\u00ae?<\/b><\/p>\n
GYROTONIC\u00ae,\u00a0<\/b>is an original and up-to-date type of stretching gymnastics developed by Juliu Horvath, a dancer and athlete of Hungarian origin.\u00a0 It offers great benefits to the spine and posture.\u00a0 It is loved by people all over the world including many stars from the world of music and Hollywood who use it to keep fit and to have an elegant deportment.\u00a0 it is also loved by athletes from variuous disciplines as it is able to simulate many sports and improve athletic performance.\u00a0 It uses special equipment designed to help any type of body and any movement.\u00a0 This equipment is different from any other use in the gym or in Pilates because it allows the body to work in three dimensions.\u00a0 It is a blend of stretching, joints mobilization (in particular spinal column!), postural gymnastics, breathing control exercises, muscle building and control, strength and flexibility.<\/p>\n
What can it do?<\/b><\/p>\n
It lengthens all body muscles to make them more flexible and less vulnerable to injury and pain.\u00a0 It helps the person to be more aware of and in control of his\/her body in order to alter wrong posture and to help with everyday activities.\u00a0 It is suitable for all ages and need, both as a therapy and as a complete sports activity to regenerate energy and vitality, help people to relax and to achieve a sense of general well-being.\u00a0 It is useful to amateur, sportsmen and athletes for strengthening an regenerating muscles.<\/p>\n
Is<\/strong> GYROTONIC\u00ae<\/b> also a type of <\/b>postural <\/b>gymnastics?<\/b><\/p>\n It can be defined as a state-of-the-art type of postural gymnastics.\u00a0 The special equipments are designed to support and guide the body in exercising in lengthening, but also in symmetry, and therefore correct any postural imbalance, errors weight distribution, problems related to pelvis and other limbs, lordosis, kyphosis, scoliosis,etc.\u00a0 In such cases the presence of a physiotherapist is not specifically asked, however the method must be taught by fully qualified and certified trainers.<\/p>\n Is it a type of Pilates?<\/b><\/p>\n Although both disciplines focus on psycho-physical well-being and making people feel well in general, and are based on a detailed study of the body and biomechanics, they differ in their fundamental principles and in the name of the two founders, Joseph Pilates and Juliu Horvath.\u00a0 While Pilates is a method based on bi-dimensional movements, the\u00a0 GYROTONIC EXPANSION SYSTEM\u00ae<\/b> is characterised by three-dimensional movements which can be circular, spiraling and which favour the decontraction and regeneration of muscles.\u00a0 Pilates is based on muscle control in movement in a clearly defined space,\u00a0 the GYROTONIC EXPANSION SYSTEM\u00ae<\/b>\u00a0 uses muscles control in movement in a wider range of motion.\u00a0 This is why the equipments are also different.\u00a0 For further information on how these two disciplines are different and what they have in common, please refer to the short article in “News” called “The evolution of movement”.<\/p>\n SOS backache!\u00a0 Can <\/b>GYROTONIC EXPANSION SYSTEM\u00ae<\/b> help<\/strong>?<\/b><\/p>\n Yes, it can!\u00a0 It is a valid way of relieving and eliminating any pain related to problems of the spine (lumbar sciatica, cervical, arthrosis, hernia of the disk, scoliosis, etc).\u00a0 Never underestimate its importance in the field or prevention.<\/p>\n Can this type of gymnastics help in cases of severe back problems or in the acute stage of back pain? In the case of acute inflammation it is always better to get the advice of a good doctor and in any case to wait for the inflammation of the affected area to disappear.\u00a0 After this you can start a work plan that requires constancy, collaboration and the elimination of bad habits.\u00a0 However,\u00a0 if you are able to move, go to work or go shopping independently, you will surely be able to deal and benefit from an individual GYROTONIC\u00ae <\/b>session focused on, and suitable for the problem.\u00a0 This session must be given by a qualified trainer, specialized with the GYROTONIC\u00ae<\/b> therapeutic applications in particular pathologys.<\/p>\n My doctor has ordered me to rest and has told me not to do gymnastics! What should I do? Given that it is always necessary to follow the advice of a good doctor, unfortunately in Italy not all doctors are up-to-date with the latest rehabilitation therapies or support treatments such as\u00a0 GYROTONIC\u00ae<\/b>.\u00a0 Often are the patients themselves who introduce this type of gymnastics to their doctors and in this way spread the work about this discipline.\u00a0 Once the doctor has become familiar with this type of gymnastics, he will be the first to suggest to his patient goes to a specialized GYROTONIC\u00ae<\/b> center, <\/b>as soon as the inflammation has gone down.<\/p>\n Is it really possible that GYROTONIC EXPANSION SYSTEM\u00ae can be used both for rehabilitation and for training?<\/b><\/p>\n Yes, first of all because it was created by a dancer, as a rehabilitation method for himself after suffering severe traumas due to his activity.\u00a0 This method allowed him not only to start walking again but also to return to dancing on top form!\u00a0 Furthermore, many doctors all over the world who are specialized in rehabilitation are advising people of any age to use this system.<\/p>\n Should I do it before or after my training? (e.g. jogging, tennis, swimming, volleyball, football, yoga, etc)<\/b><\/p>\n It works in both cases.\u00a0 In fact it is excellent before any type of sports training to prepare muscle tissue and prevent traumas, or after, to relax muscles.\u00a0 In addition it is a complementary gymnastics for any type of sport as it is able to increase performance and athletic resistance, to improve better reflexes and rapidity of movement.\u00a0 Finally, it is able to simulate the movements of many sports.\u00a0 It is a valid support for asymmetric sports like tennis and fencing and even yoga, where many people are able to hold positions more easily and without constraints.<\/p>\n How many classes are necessary to get results?<\/b><\/p>\n The first class is an assessment to build up a work plan based on the needs and\/or prooblems of th individual.\u00a0 Right from the first session you can notice benefits, even if not everyone is able to perceive this feeling of well-being.\u00a0 After that it is advisable to do a group of classes on a regular weekly basis.\u00a0 Best results are achieved when the classes are twice weekly or three times a week or more often, but the most important thing is to work on a regular basis.\u00a0 Clearly in the presence of particular problems, and taking into consideration the age and life-style of the individual, it is advisable to continue classes with the aim of prevention.\u00a0 The GYROTONIC EXPANSION SYSTEM\u00ae<\/b>, and the name itself make it clear, that this should non be seen as a series of exercises, but as an system in expansion that helps you to go beyond your limits, that\u00a0 is based on a methodology and fundamental principles that make use of special equipment, and that brings incredible results if done on a regular basis.\u00a0 It is a complete training method that can be carried out in various ways according to the need of the individual. It can be used to support other types of training but also as a personal training programme.<\/p>\n To be continued..<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" What is GYROTONIC\u00ae?
