ERGOVIVA Wittenbach – Contacts & Location
Description
We support and accompany people of all ages...
...who are impaired in their ability to act.
This can be as a result of an illness, an accident, for psychological reasons or due to a developmental disorder, for example. During therapy, we focus on the person's ability to act and thus contribute to improving their health and quality of life, with the aim of participating in the activities of daily life and in society.
THERAPY FORMS:
- Hand therapy specifically
- For injuries or operations on the tendons, bones and nerves
Occupational therapy provides individually tailored rehabilitation by carrying out a detailed assessment and identifying the limitations caused by the illness or accident. We support you with mobilization, coordination and strength training, as well as pain treatment, sensitivity training, wound care, scar and oedema treatment.
- The spiral principle - movement between two poles
Geometrically speaking, it is an object that rotates between two poles. Three directions of rotation around three spatial axes - full mobility and maximum stability. The space is three-dimensional and has three axes. A ball can slide along the three axes or rotate around the three axes without changing its position. The same applies to human movement. The 3D variety of movement.
- Orthopaedics
- SAMT - Therapy
Swiss Working Group for Manual Therapy
Manual techniques are among the oldest medical therapies and have existed in different ways in all cultures for thousands of years. They can be traced back to antiquity. Hippocrates was already familiar with the traction technique.
In manual therapy, the hands are the most important examination and treatment instrument. The therapist uses their hands to carefully feel your muscles, tendons and joints. They feel for blockages and dysfunctions in the wrist, elbow and shoulder joints as well as your spine and feel for tension in the tissue that may be causing you pain.
- Therapy according to Boeger
Scar mobilization and joint mobilization
Boeger therapy has been dedicated to a holistic approach to physiotherapy and occupational therapy since 1994. It focuses on the previously largely ignored topic of the fascia system and scar problems. The aim of Boeger therapy is to systematically diagnose and permanently resolve the cause of pain and restricted movement.
- BOWTECH therapy
The Bowen technique is a dynamic muscle and connective tissue technique. It has been used successfully for more than 40 years. Bowen grips are applied gently to specific muscle areas. There are short pauses between individual grip sequences. These characteristic pauses help the body to balance its own energies. The grips are limited to the upper layer of tissue and only require gentle pressure. It is therefore not a massage.
- Psychomotor therapy for children
Prof. Dr. E. Jonny Kiphard, also known as the "father of psychomotor skills", worked as a circus performer with Althoff in the 1940s and 1950s and then studied sport, psychology and education at a sports university. In the following years, he worked in the child and adolescent psychiatry department in Hamm, where he also developed the "psychomotor exercise treatment", a holistic and development-oriented concept that promotes perception and movement in equal measure.
What does psychomotricity mean:
In lively psychomotor practice, movement stories, rhythmic elements, varied movement and play activities or movement construction sites are part of everyday life. Social experiences are a fundamental part of psychomotor practice. The aim is to provide children with a variety of physical, material and social experiences (e.g. through the group). As a result, children learn from each other and help each other when they create a movement construction site, for example.
Occupational therapy focuses on the areas of body awareness, spatial orientation, action planning and the organization of everyday life.
- LRS - reading and spelling weakness
LRS is a disorder of the ability to read or write
.Recognizing and promoting disorders that can contribute to dyslexia
If one of these functions is not fully developed, the child remains at a developmental stage, so to speak, and cannot unfold its full potential.
The earlier such a "developmental gap" is recognized, the faster the child can catch up on the missing developmental building block and deal with higher cognitive functions such as reading and writing.
It is therefore necessary to help children achieve full development as early as kindergarten age through observation, recognition and support. This support for missing developmental steps takes place in occupational therapy.
- Occupational therapy according to Bobath
The Bobath concept is a rehabilitative approach to the therapy and care of people with damage to the central nervous system or spinal cord.
It is named after its developers Berta Bobath and her husband Dr. Karl Bobath, who developed this rehabilitation concept for the treatment of patients with central paralysis in 1943.
Content and aims of the Bobath concept:
The Bobath concept is the concept successfully applied worldwide in all therapeutic areas for the rehabilitation of people with diseases of the central nervous system that are associated with movement disorders, paralysis and spasticity.
The Bobath concept strives for a learning process for the patient to regain control over muscle tension (muscle tone) and movement functions. The working principles are regulation of muscle tone and initiation of physiological movement sequences.
Brain performance training is a neuropsychologically oriented treatment and is used to specifically promote brain performance.
Growing older can be really nice
I don't get worse with age - I get better . . .
The older person, who brings a great deal of life experience with them, possesses an incredible wealth of interpersonal talent and experience. I really admire this as a therapist, as I can draw on it myself.
My work with ageing people:
Advanced age brings with it physical, psychological and social changes that affect daily life. For example, they may suddenly find it difficult to look after themselves or others, such as tidying up their home, watching a television program, leaving the house or withdrawing money from an ATM. Anxieties can also arise, such as the feeling of losing control over one's future. These difficulties may be related to a loss of energy or demotivation or chronic pain.
It may also be that the built environment or home no longer meets one's capabilities.
- Rheumatology
The term "rheumatism" covers a variety of different rheumatic diseases. Rheumatoid arthritis is the most common inflammatory form of rheumatism. The immune system, the body's own defense system, mistakenly attacks and destroys its own joints and various tissues. Rheumatism occurs predominantly in the joints, less frequently also in internal organs, the eyes and the skin. If the rheumatism affects more than five joints, doctors also refer to it as chronic polyarthritis.
In the course of time, rheumatoid arthritis almost always develops into polyarthritis as symptoms occur in more and more joints.
Occupational therapy (ET) aims to promote or restore missing or lost physical functions with the aim of maintaining and achieving the greatest possible independence and autonomy for those affected in their everyday and/or professional lives. ET is an indispensable part of complex therapy and rehabilitation for certain musculoskeletal disorders. It pursues goals and fulfills functions that cannot be performed by any other therapeutic discipline.
Occupational therapy in art creates space for creative design and expression and promotes the ability to perceive and understand oneself and one's environment through the senses. The processes are active, promote the ability to act and the realization of being able to make a difference.
In occupational therapy, work and design therapy has a very comprehensive therapeutic approach. The therapy aims to develop and promote the whole person, i.e. both the working and the creative person, and the results are presented that have practical value, such as representations with colors and paper or clay work.
In addition, occupational therapy aims to strengthen the client's perception, self-confidence and vitality. Physical, mental, social and cognitive skills are promoted.
Occupational therapy work is geared towards the client's current everyday problems and habits. It guides the individual's perception, actions and resources. This gives each client the opportunity to actively shape their goals and wishes for the course of therapy.
Daily living aids are a major component of health-specific complaints so that you can act independently in your own home.
Daily living aids are only recommended if they make sense.
Your limitations are thoroughly clarified by occupational therapy and ways to improve independence in everyday life are recorded.
Through occupational therapy consultations in your home, daily living aids are tailored precisely to your needs.
Occupational therapists are in a better position than other practitioners to assess the need to prescribe technical aids, instruct patients in their use and supervise practice with the equipment.
