Galileo Research Facts No. 70: Can Galileo Therapy improve muscle strength and balance in Down Syndrome?

This study as many others showed the efficiency end effectivity of Galileo Therapy in this case in children with Down Syndrome. Both groups of this study received over a period of 6 months 3 times per week 60 minutes of physio therapy targeting muscle strength, flexibility and balance. The Galileo group received additional 5 to 10 minutes Galileo Therapy (25-30Hz, position 2, legs slightly flexed).

Even though the Galileo group only received about 25% more therapy their results were highly significantly higher with 2.5 to 4 times higher therapy effects (muscle strength +14%, balance up to +22%). This is another example of the efficiency and effectiveness of Galileo Therapy. The Galileo study #GRFS169 did also show increased muscle power for this condition.
