Tendon stretching

In so doing, the tendons, muscles and soft tissue have to stretch under the weight of the body (as the ideal measure) because of the ever-necessary adjustment to the unevennes of the surface. Also, in order to “overcome” the obstacle, they have to lift the feet and the body thus getting – stronger.

Strenghtening all muscles

When walking on a surface like the Sand-y Natural Walker®, one has to overcome smaller/bigger bumps on one side and immediately after, by descending into the polyurethane foam with entire body weight, stretch and raise the whole body by contracting the muscles of one's of feet and legs. The muscles of feet and legs have to balance all the time during such a walk, thus maintaining the necessary body balance.

Diminished pain, fatigue and improved circulation

The mobility of joints in feet and ankles increases and the muscles of feet and legs are strongly activated. This strongly activates the “muscle pump” which rushes the blood from the capilaries and venules in the feet towards the broader veins in the legs, in the direction of the heart.

Helping with growth and development

Preventive and therapeutic clinical application of this medicinal surface would be beneficial to all children over one year of age (as soon as they can walk) until the end of their growth, regardless of possible foot pathology, and even more so for those who suffer from a foot deformity, with reccomendation of the appropriate specialist, of course.

VITA BEACH ® and diabetic foot

Therapeutic effect of application in patients with diabetes:

  • around 15 % patients may expect the occurrence of diabetic foot ulcers
  • diabetic foot ulcers - increased specific pathology and mortality
  • unhealed ulcers - amputation(s) !
  • 20-50% of patients die within three years following the 1st amputation
  • extraordinary health effort and cost for everyone
WHAT COMES AS AN IMPERATIVE ?
PREVENTIVE !

By walking on VITA BEACH®, all foot and ankle joints get mobilized and this significantly reduces the rate of occurrence of all pathological conditions caused by reduced mobility of foot joints ...

(it has been scientifically* proved that the reduced mobility of foot joints affects the occurrence of diabetic foot ulcers!)

*(Zimny S. at al., Diabetes care 2004;27:942-946)

» It positively affects somatosensoric proprio- and extero-ceptive structures of the foot, enhancing the posture of the body (it improves postural control – balance of the body).

»The main regulatory mechanisms of postural control act primarily through the ankle joint!
 
  • SCIENTIFIC PROOFS OF EFFICIENCY – 1st STUDY
  • Prospective (pilot) study involving 15 patients with diabetes type II has indicated a significant increase of diameter and surface a.a. tibialis antt. and postt., as measured by Doppler sonography after (only) 10 days (3x a day per 10 minutes) of walking on VITA BEACH®!
  • (the study has been made at the Clinic for Internal Medicine of the Clinical Hospital Center of Rijeka, by professor Ž. Crnčević, PhD and associates. The study is about to be published to the scientific community!)
