This study from Korea examined the immediate effect of 2 times 10 minutes Galileo Therapy on the ankle spasticity. Again, a very easy set-up was used: 30\u00b0 squat, 20Hz, position2, 2*10 Minutes with 1 minutes rest in between. Two groups where selected: one with extension one with contraction spasticity. <\/p>\n<p>In average spasticity was decreased by 55\u00b0 and the effect lasted for about 1 hour before it started to decrease. About 3 hours after the intervention the effect was gone. This is a quite typical example for effects of Galileo Therapy on spasticity. One of the reasons for this is the reduction of spinal excitability (#<a href=\"https:\/\/stratec-med.com\/en\/grfs\/galileo-research-facts-no-37-can-60-seconds-of-galileo-therapy-reduce-spinal-excitability-significantly\/\">GRFS37<\/a>).     An alternative approach is to use Galileo Therapy in sitting because increased trunk control which can be achieved by sitting on Galileo (preferably using an 5\u201d Ikea-stool on top of the Galileo) in most cases decreases spasticity in arms and legs\u2026<\/p>\n<p>#GRFS64 #GalileoTherapy #CerebralParese #CP #Spasticity #SpasticityReduction #SpasticityControl #MechanoStimulation #SpasticityManagement #GalileoKids<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2d45b977 elementor-widget elementor-widget-post-info\" data-id=\"2d45b977\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"post-info.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<ul class=\"elementor-icon-list-items elementor-post-info\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<li class=\"elementor-icon-list-item elementor-repeater-item-4dfa463\" itemprop=\"datePublished\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/stratec-med.com\/en\/2023\/09\/16\/\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-icon-list-text elementor-post-info__item elementor-post-info__item--type-date\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<time>16.09.2023<\/time>\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t<li class=\"elementor-icon-list-item elementor-repeater-item-6ad0cb2\" itemprop=\"about\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-icon-list-text elementor-post-info__item elementor-post-info__item--type-terms\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-post-info__item-prefix\">Produktgruppen: <\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-post-info__terms-list\">\n\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/stratec-med.com\/en\/produktgruppe\/galileo-therapy\/\" class=\"elementor-post-info__terms-list-item\">Galileo Therapy<\/a>\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t<li class=\"elementor-icon-list-item elementor-repeater-item-aae46c5\" itemprop=\"about\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-icon-list-text elementor-post-info__item elementor-post-info__item--type-terms\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-post-info__item-prefix\">Themen:<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-post-info__terms-list\">\n\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/stratec-med.com\/en\/topic\/back-pain\/\" class=\"elementor-post-info__terms-list-item\">Back Pain<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/stratec-med.com\/en\/topic\/basics\/\" class=\"elementor-post-info__terms-list-item\">Basics<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/stratec-med.com\/en\/topic\/diseases\/\" class=\"elementor-post-info__terms-list-item\">Diseases<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/stratec-med.com\/en\/topic\/geriatrics\/\" class=\"elementor-post-info__terms-list-item\">Geriatrics<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/stratec-med.com\/en\/topic\/health-promotion-at-work\/\" class=\"elementor-post-info__terms-list-item\">Health Promotion at Work<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/stratec-med.com\/en\/topic\/incontience\/\" class=\"elementor-post-info__terms-list-item\">Incontience<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/stratec-med.com\/en\/topic\/medical-applications\/\" class=\"elementor-post-info__terms-list-item\">Medical Applications<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/stratec-med.com\/en\/topic\/neurological-conditions\/\" class=\"elementor-post-info__terms-list-item\">Neurological Conditions<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/stratec-med.com\/en\/topic\/orthopedic-diseases\/\" class=\"elementor-post-info__terms-list-item\">Orthopedic Diseases<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/stratec-med.com\/en\/topic\/osteoporosis\/\" class=\"elementor-post-info__terms-list-item\">Osteoporosis<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/stratec-med.com\/en\/topic\/paediatrics\/\" class=\"elementor-post-info__terms-list-item\">Paediatrics<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/stratec-med.com\/en\/topic\/prevention\/\" class=\"elementor-post-info__terms-list-item\">Prevention<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/stratec-med.com\/en\/topic\/pyhsitherapy-rehabilitation\/\" class=\"elementor-post-info__terms-list-item\">Pyhsitherapy &amp;
