A proper diet and regular exercise keeps us healthy, energised and revitalised. But when we are faced with a debilitating condition due to injury or disease such as arthritis, diabetes, incontinence, osteoporosis, or Parkinson's disease, it can be difficult and quite discouraging. The Galileo allows us to benefit from exercise without the constraints of conventional exercise (i.e. stress on joints, ligaments or cardiovascular system, etc.) Training sessions of only 2-3 minutes, twice a week have produced measurable results. Galileo has been proven to be successful in the following fields of medical application:

- Rehabilitation of force and power
- Rehabilitation in Neurological patients
- Muscle atrophy
- Poor balance
- Poor proprioception
- Lower backpain
- Stress-Incontinence
- Osteoporosis
- Blood Flow problems
- Therapeutic applications focused on metabolism and tissue strengthening and recovery (arthritis, tendonitis, skin problems).

Many other treatment goals have been noted in clinical practice and are under investigation at this moment. Examples are treatment of the physical status of women after breast cancer operation, patients with diabetes type 2, rehabilitation of osteo-arthritis, tendonitis, muscle tears, and general recovery. Please call if you require specific case analysis.
