As soon as the representatives of the human race from a pose on all fours in the process of evolution moved to a vertical position, their spine began to be subjected to additional serious loads. According to the ancient healers, expressed in treatises, an upright person is young and he althy exactly as much as his skeleton - the spine - is flexible. But the rapid development of civilization, along with comfort, brought physical inactivity to modern homo sapiens, causing negative changes in the physiological curves of the body due to low mobility and a sedentary lifestyle.
The deformation of the vertebrae that occurs against the background of these changes disrupts the normal state of the main support of the human body. About 90 percent of people living on our planet suffer from osteochondrosis, which is one of the five most common diseases of the world's population. A unique home simulator - the Evminov board - helps not only to get rid of deformation and stretch the spine, but also to strengthen the muscles that support it, as well as prevent the appearance of more formidablediseases of the musculoskeletal system - sciatica, scoliosis and other posture disorders (lordosis or kyphosis).
Who is Evminov's corrector intended for?
Thousands of people whose work is associated with prolonged sitting (at a computer, any device or a sewing machine), as well as those who experience constant serious stress on the musculoskeletal system, rightly call the Evminov prophylactic simulator an effective means of recovery back he alth and prevention of many diseases.
Children and adolescents who continue to develop cartilage and bone tissue can grow a little if they regularly stretch and exercise on the Evminov board. People who have crossed the 45-year milestone need to pay special attention to this sports equipment. With age, the flexibility of the spine decreases, the muscles of the back lose their elasticity, intervertebral hernias occur, and discs are displaced. As a result, severe pain appears, causing people a lot of physical and mental suffering. Evminov's back board can become a reliable assistant in the fight against spinal pathologies if your doctor approves its use. Also, a miracle prophylactic is recommended for obese people, those whose weight is close to or exceeds 100 kg. In patients with a similar weight, exercises on the horizontal bar, wall bars, running or jumping can cause trauma to the spine from excessive loads, while the orthopedic simulator - the Evminov board - will make it possible to conduct regular exercises in a gentlemode, supporting the spine and reducing the load. For the same purpose - soft, delicate back training - it can be used by patients during the rehabilitation period after surgery, in agreement with the doctor.
Who created this useful dispensary
The author of the unique design of the prophylactic board and the therapeutic method of getting rid of many diseases of the spine is the President of the vertebro-he alth center of the city of Kyiv Vyacheslav Vladimirovich Evminov. The effectiveness of his methods of treatment has been confirmed by numerous scientific studies of the Ministry of He alth of Ukraine.
The basis of the technique is training and strengthening of the back muscles with maximum unloading of the spine. Today, the Honored Coach of Ukraine V. V. Evminov is widely known at home and abroad, the originals of his invention, described in detail on the official website of his organization, can be found in the Olympia medical center in Simferopol, Alfa-RET Research Center in Lipetsk, regional Odessa Center for Spinal Restoration and Rehabilitation Activities, as well as in many other he alth centers in the CIS countries and far abroad: Russia and Poland, Georgia and Estonia, Hungary, Portugal, Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan.
Features of the corrector and technique
The original Evminov's Board is assembled and glued from slats of eight types of wood using a special, scientifically based technology. This ensures sufficient deflection of the board and its soft cushioning - the main condition for safety andthe effectiveness of training on this projectile.
On the website of the Evminov Center you can also get acquainted with the training programs, with contraindications, as well as the rules in accordance with which the exercises for the Evminov board are performed.
Make a corrector with your own hands
It should be noted that Evminov's industrial dispensaries are effective shells, but not designed for every wallet. Therefore, many are thinking about how to make Evminov's board on their own. At the same time, you can save on expensive materials, but still the working surface of the board must have sufficient rigidity, be smooth, moderately slip and not absorb moisture.
Materials
Firstly, you will need a pine beam, which is easy to purchase on the construction market. Dimensions - 50x50x3000. It is often sold unpolished, intended for rough construction work. Next, it must be cut with a circular saw into 2 different pieces: the first should be equal to or slightly exceed the height of a person, the second should be about 270 mm. Secondly, a comfortable work surface can be obtained by purchasing a chipboard (chipboard) board with a width of 260 mm, and corresponding to the height in length. However, you will have to be smart so as not to overpay for a whole sheet in the form of a plate. They are often on sale. You can use pieces, firmly gluing them together, or doors from an old chipboard cabinet. Such a surface does not absorb moisture, slightly slips, it is smooth and safe. The edge can be covered with decorative tape.
Thirdly, for the crossbars, cuttings for shovels (or choppers) will be needed. One should be made of soft wood species 1 m long with a diameter of not more than 40 mm, the second - 1.5 m, but 30 mm in diameter, made of oak or beech (harder wood). Then you need to prepare the board for the steps, as well as the edges of the carriage and ladder. A maple board 200x900 mm is perfect.
Hardware and fasteners
Next, we need for fastening: a mounting rail, spliced (2000x40x2 mm), and hardware - a bolt 70 by 8 mm, a rod 600 by 8 mm, washers, nuts. In the original simulator, the working board is suspended on a super-strong cable. The do-it-yourself Evminov board already made (see the drawing below) is attached to a long-link three-meter chain. It will firmly fix the device, making it possible to adjust the height. The bottom of the board is the best place to attach the holding hooks.
We also need a fireman's carabiner (galvanized), a twisted expansion dowel, 50 mm screws, dense rubber for the crossbar, which should be located next to the base of the board. She needs to upholster this crossbar, and the carriage and the bearing beam - with a dense fabric that does not form wrinkles. Felt, overcoat material will not creak under the weight of the body.
How to make a back corrector
Evminov's board, the dimensions of which are indicated below in the drawing, is easy to do with skillful hands and with a creative approach.
Grinding the handleshovels 60 cm in size. We cover the crossbar (its end part) with rubber, cutting out pieces from the material. We prepare small holes in the rubber with an awl, we nail small carnations through them. Next, proceed to the beam: cut the length of the crossbar and grind it to a smooth state. We prepare a through hole with cutters from the ends and make jumpers. The drawing shows that the chain mount is located at the opposite end of the beam, which must be wrapped with a cloth. We fix it with a stapler. On the surface of the chipboard for the chain, we prepare a semicircular hole. We thread the links, and fasten the bearing surface to the wooden beam with screws. We mount a strong hook in the ceiling. We hook a carabiner to it, tie a chain, the lower end of which fixes the board at an angle of 20 degrees. The carriage consists of a board cut into a couple of fragments - 320 and 200 mm. Under its base, we use a short beam, the length of which is 270 mm, we make a pair of through holes for 2 rods 0.8 cm long. To connect them, you need to make a groove from the ends, and then put the bolts on the glue and tighten the nuts tightly. We fix the carriage on nails to the crossbar at the ends. The lower part of the carriage should move freely, and so that it does not slide down, we fasten it along the total length of the beam with a mounting rail.
Tilt angle
For beginners, exercises on the Evminov board can be performed with an inclination angle of no more than 15-20 degrees. But you need to be sure that there are no contraindications. With severe pain (especially the presence of hernias), self-treatment is dangerous! During periods of remission, if alloweddoctor, you can start with the smallest load. Even with a slight discomfort that the Evminov board brings you, the exercises should be stopped immediately!
Perseverance, patience and regular training
Located on the board with your back, hang on the crossbar, pull your legs down, concentrating on stretching the spine. Angle - no more than 20 degrees, repetitions - no more than 2-3. Remaining in the same position, we lower our legs along the edges of the board on both sides and stretch the spine in a half-hanging. We turn over on our stomach, rest our palms on the bench, tighten the muscles of the lower leg and pull the chin to the chest, trying to touch it. This exercise helps to eliminate the curvature of the spine. Lying on your back, holding on to the crossbar, turn your legs, swaying alternately in different directions. The angle of twisting of the spine in this case is no more than 20 degrees!
Conclusion
Evminov's technique, no matter how good it is, is not a panacea for all diseases of the "pillar of life", and not the only way to treat it. But in combination with medical supervision, procedures, classical exercise therapy, massage and regular exercises, the quality of life and he alth will noticeably improve very soon. And for people suffering only from hypodynamia and minor postural disorders, Evminov's board will become a reliable preventer of many diseases for many years to come!
