This gym apparatus combines several powerful curative principles of influence on the whole body and effectively supplements a number of modern exercise machines and massagers.

    It has a wide spectrum of healing qualities, which can be used in sport, prophylactic, and curative practice to treat and cure the whole body.

    In April 2007 “The Centre for Posture Correction” launched a scientific experiment applying the new authoring invention: K. Razumovskyi eco-trainer-massager. Simultaneously, the Centre’s programs were included into the international program of social educational & practical movement “Slavonic Synthesis.”

    The experiment showed that when the eco-trainer-massager was used to treat scoliosis the results combined with O. Slinko’s authoring methodology were much better. It was especially true in cases of static, functional, and idiopathic scoliosis of the 1^st-3^rd degree.

    The apparatus is made of valuable kinds of wood (oak, cedar, alder, beech, etc.), it looks nice and fits into the interior as an interesting accessory. It is suitable for people of any height due to the movable rollers, it is not big (~0.7m), and highly strong (can hold up to 200kg).

    The apparatus helps to train and massage muscles around vertebrae very effectively and on your own. A simple complex of 3-4 exercises for 5-7 minutes helps to activate the main physiological needs of the body, strengthen and massage muscles of waist, neck, and the area between shoulder blades. The person starts to feel energetic, his/her body is warmed up, fatigue is gone, headache and the feeling of discomfort is relieved. The people, who have this apparatus already, call it “The spine drug”.

    Being very simple by design and very easy to use, K. Razumovskyi eco-trainer-massager combined several functions important for treatment of musculoskeletal system disorders – this is autogravitational effect, when the wooden rollers of the eco-trainer-massager press onto the muscles around vertebrae, blood, and lymph, thus eliminating both lymphatic and venous congestion. The muscle spasm is relieved and the spine is stretched effectively. Simultaneously, the whole muscle corset is strengthened.

    Another function performed by the eco-trainer’s rollers is influence on the active hot spots of the reflexogenic zones of the body. According to the meridional topography of the conventional oriental medicine, the local influence is produced on paravertebral spine areas, defined by the meridian of urinary bladder. Since by the oriental medicine you may cure all the diseases of kidneys meridian through the influence on the urinary bladder meridian, exercises on the K. Razumovskyi eco-trainer-massager exert highly effective prophylactic influence on the cardiovascular, digestion, urinary, muscular systems of the human body.

    One more effective function is stretching of ligaments with a small amplitude of movements, which is highly safe. During the stretching the mobility of vertebrae and joints is recovered.

    One of the most important functions of the eco-trainer-massager is massage: segmental, meridian, pressure point massage. The above mentioned functions of K. Razumovskyi eco-trainer-massager suit all categories of people irrespectively of their age.

    Investigations in O.Slinko’s “Centre for Posture Correction” revealed additional functions performed by the eco-trainer. By means of the active roller you can correct spine deformation in sagittal plane in cases of adolescent postural cyphosis localized in thorax or phrenic spine areas.

    It is sufficient to lie 3-6 minutes twice a day with the active roller on top of the deformation and the main indices of the linear spine dimensions will improve.

    According to our observations, since scoliosis is characterized by the violation of paravertebral muscles symmetry, asymmetrical massage and training influence of K. Razumovskyi eco-trainer-massager compensate and correct the work of muscles around vertebrae and have general healing properties on the human body.

    After the regular usage of the eco-trainer-massager during 6 months according to the specially elaborated schemes the condition of teenagers suffering from scoliosis was improved, according to the repeated diagnostics data: by the linear measurements of Moshkov diamond and position of shoulder-blades, the deviation decreased and symmetry of the central spine axis was recovered.

    The eco-trainer-massager can be used to treat cyphoscoliosis of the 3^rd-4^th degrees in order to correct rib gibbus Systematic activation of the reflexogenic areas of human spine has a positive influence on the way a person feels and on the condition of his/her health.

    K. Razumovskyi eco-trainer-massager is not only useful to treat numerous spine diseases, it also raises immunity, slows down the ageing process, and rejuvenates the body. It must be available in every gym of every educational institution to prevent scoliosis and form correct posture of teenagers.
