Re-acquirement of Walking from Bedridden by the Motivative Exercise and Takizawa Method and Proposition of the Solution to the Aging Crisis

Abstract

We propose to downsize the occurrence of the disabled geriatric population from 16% to 10% or less in Japan and show how to realize it by showing past studies. The Takizawa rehabilitation method has been effective to reinforce the muscle force of the trunk and extremities for bedridden patients with a stroke, osteoarthrosis and other medical problems can be extended gradually by pacing without pain in the sitting position and by using the devices developed. One therapist can perform this process for many patients at the same time by the Takizawa method with the Motivative exercise. Both nurses and caregivers can rehabilitate them with appropriate guidance. We show the characteristics of the motivative exercise comparing to passive exercise and the possibility to substitute for passive exercise . The Takizawa method with the Motivative exercise contributed to the disabled elderly achieving care-independence. Therefore, we insist that the Takizawa method with the Motivative exercise enables budget cuts and will realize our proposition. The method contributes to the resolution for the aging crisis.
