“My rehabilitation could start directly after the surgery, on the same day”
“Since I was 15 years old I play volleybal in a professional way, which means practising everyday. In 1998 I started to play for the Dutch National Ladies team and in different international leagues, since 2012 I play for Bacau, the champion and cup winner of Romania.”
Severe knee injuries |”It’s a great strain on the physical abilities of your boday play and practise on such a high level, this can result injuries. Unfortunately, I’m experienced with knee injuries and surgeries. After three surgeries on the same knee, I followed the traditional rehabilitation and this costs me 1,5 year. After my fourth surgery, I start working with electrotherapy. Now, I was able to do some strength training without stressing the knee joint too much, resulting in the fact that my muscles were able to absorb forces from movements in an earlier stage of the rahbilitation. Besides this, it was even possible to start directly after the surgery with the decreasing the swelling.”
Rehabilitation with the RSQ1 | “The treatments with RSQ1 are still though exercises, but the results are amazing. I’m sure everyone who will be treated with the RSQ1 will be released faster from their physical problems.”
