Efficacy of REAC Neurobiological Optimization Treatments in Post-Polio Syndrome: A Manual Muscle Testing Evaluation. | LitMetric

AI Article Synopsis

  • The study examined the effects of radio electric asymmetric conveyor (REAC) treatments on muscle strength in post-polio syndrome (PPS) patients, focusing on improving rather than just managing symptoms.
  • The research included 17 PPS individuals who received various REAC treatment protocols while continuing their regular medication, with muscle strength assessed before and after the treatments.
  • Results showed notable improvements in muscle strength, especially in severely affected muscles, indicating that REAC therapy might help enhance muscle function and redistribute the load from stronger to weaker limbs.

Article Abstract

This study evaluated the effectiveness of radio electric asymmetric conveyer (REAC) neurobiological optimization treatments on muscle strength (MS) in individuals with post-polio syndrome (PPS), a condition causing new muscle weakness in polio survivors. Traditional treatments focus on symptom management, whereas REAC technology uses radio electric symmetric conveyed fields to modulate neurotransmission and cellular function. This open-label study involved 17 PPS patients who maintained their existing medications. The participants underwent four REAC treatment protocols: neuro-postural optimization (NPO), neuro-psycho-physical optimization (NPPO), neuro-psycho-physical optimization-cervical brachial (NPPO-CB), and neuromuscular optimization (NMO). MS was assessed using manual muscular tests (MMT) before and after each protocol. A statistical analysis via repeated measures ANOVA showed significant MS improvements, particularly in the proximal muscles of the left lower limb (LLL), distal muscles of both lower limbs (LLs), and distal muscles of the left upper limb. The LLL, the most severely affected limb at this study's start, exhibited the greatest improvement. These results suggest REAC treatments could enhance MS in PPS patients, potentially reorganizing motor patterns and reducing functional overload on less affected limbs.
