The leading postural program applied in
neurophysiology for the restoring of the
balance in the inductive receptor (exteroceptors
and proprioceptors in the feet) and for
the control in (ocular, auditory and vestibular
receptors) systems of human antigravitational
orthostatism in static (Daedalus) and dynamic
(Semelles a Boule) conditions.

therapist
In the body dynamics, to obtain a steady
position and to remain straight keeping
the various parts of the body balanced
between them, we must accomplish a series
of postural adjustments, integrated both
with an involuntary and voluntary movement,
that perform three behavioural functions: • Support
head and body against force of gravity
and other external forces; • Maintain the centre of the body mass aligned
and balanced inside the quadrilateral ground
support; • Balance out the body parts that act as
support when the other parts are in movement.
The DÆDALUS® is a “proprioceptive
footboard” equipped with a labyrinth
and a surface support, unevenly balanced
on a ball with variable pressure. The Semelles
a Boule® are skates with in the place
of wheels have an elastic hemisphere which
contains a spring with variable springiness,
interchangeable, with the possibility to
change the position in the anter-back and
lateral sense under the surface support
of the foot. Changing the position of the
hemisphere, the work is privileged, in
dynamics, of a muscles chain compared to
the other. While, changing the foothold
on the board, the pressure changes in the
anter-back sense and helicoidal position,
passed on by the help of various podal
receptors. These two supports allow to
stimulate in a specific and progressive
way the tonic-postural muscles, physiologically,
indirectly, automatically and unconsciously.
