Abstract

The article provides an overview of instrumental methods and technical means allowing to evaluate some of the proven effects of osteopathic correction, such as an increase in the range of motion in the joints, normalization of muscle tone, postural balance and walking, anti-inflammatory effect and improvement of blood circulation in patients with amputation defects of the lower extremities. The article provides an overview of instrumental methods and technical means used for diagnostic purposes in the rehabilitation of patients with amputation defects of the lower extremities. The possibility of it to verify some of the osteopathic correction effects, such as an increase in the range of motion in the joints, normalization of muscle tone, postural balance and walking, anti-inflammatory effect, and improvement of blood circulation, has been evaluated.Purpose — to present instrumental methods applicable to assess the results of osteopathic correction in the rehabilitation process of patients with amputation defects of the lower extremities.
