TOWARDS THECONTROL OF YOURBODY

Human Tecar Mat helps you to recoverand improve balance, coordination,agility, elasticity, strength and fitness,with the extraordinary simplicity of a barefoot walk.

THE FOOT, ANINTERPRETERBETWEEN US

The foot is a complexinstrument, a biomechanicalmasterpiece, that throughbones, ligaments, joints,muscles and skin acts as aninterface between the groundand the Central NervousSystem, enabling the body tostand, to coordinate its postureand to move, adapting to everykind of terrain.

HUMAN TECAR MATSTIMULATES THE FOOT TO TRAIN THE BODY

Correctly stimulating and developing themovement of the feet means helpingthe body to naturally recover functionalabilities and restoring its full potential.

Human Tecar Mat is the innovativeresponse to those needs of training,rehabilitation and natural andharmonious re-education of the body.The innovation is expressed through acutting-edge technological research, butalso through the rediscovery of apractice, now lost, but that is as old asmankind: barefoot workout.Through the foot, Human Tecar Matpleasantly and naturally stimulates theactivity of the nerve receptors(proprioceptors) located in the muscle,tendons and joints, which help toperceive the position of the body inspace.

Proprioceptive sensibility is asophisticated mechanism designed toprovide the Central Nervous System, inreal time, with extremely preciseinformation in di�erent parameters:

» Biomechanical movement (speed,strength, direction, acceleration)

» Physiological parameters on biologicalstate and changes that occur inmuscles, tendons and joints as aconsequence of the movementperformed.

11

ENDLESS SUFACECOMBINATIONS

Human Tecar Mat reproduces a variety ofnatural routes, not always accessible ineveryday life, and o�ers the benefit ofconcentrating the proprioceptive activitywithin a limited space, in a safe environmentand under any weather conditions.

12

Di�erent surfaces give the possibilityof working barefoot on routes withdi�erent instability levels, respondingto the specific needs of personalizedtraining and rehabilitation.

Diverse density corresponds to a di�erentlevel of movement absorption, providingprotection of the joints and increasingenergy expenditure.

The variety of interchangeable elementsthat compose the Human Tecar Set,mats and pillows, provides endlesscombinations of routes that can beadapted to the user’s specific needs.

13

MULTIPLE AREASOF USE

The endless combinations o�eredby Human Tecar Mat are designed toachieve optimal results in multipleareas and situations.

» Rehabilitation: to perform outstandingproprioceptive work while avoiding therisk of mechanical shock.

» Athletic recovery: the activity of theCentral Nervous System andproprioceptive workout are essentialin full recovery.

» Professional sports: for the specifictraining of proprioceptive skillscombined with the typical movementsof the athlete’s sport.

» Amateur sports: for intense physicalactivity, free from articular injuries

» Excess weight and obesity: to achievehigh energy expenditure andsignificantly reduce load on the jointsthrough the absorption of kineticenergy, which facilitates motoractivity.

» Treatment of circulatory disordersthrough intense muscular e�ort andproprioceptive stimulation thatboosts return circulation, resulting inevident benefits in the treatment ofheavy legs, lymphedema, celluliteand circulation problems in general.E�ective for both prevention andhealing.

» Everyday life: a pleasant way to takecare of one’s well-being and tonaturally and harmoniously help thebody function.

AT ANY TIMEIN LIFE

ELDERY

Human Tecar Mataccompanies the bodythroughout all the seasons oflife, supporting needs in apleasant and natural way,even during the mostsensitive stages.

» In children, it promotes harmonius muscle development and increases motor ability and skills.

» In adults, it helps to get the mostout of training and to achieve goalsin less time and with greater e�ciency and e�ectiveness.

» In the elderly, it enables one to per-form exercises for improving balanceand maintaining correct walkingmotor schemes, thus reducing therisk of falls.

A VARIETYOF MATERIALS

Medium Density - WellnessFlat surface with medium elastic responsethat reproduces a smooth sandy surface.Available in two di�erent sizes (200x54x7cm - 200x100x7cm).

StonesAgglomerates in di�erent density thatstimulate a stony surface with homogeneous relief in shape and size(200x54x7cm).

The Human Tecar Mat Set is a group ofsurfaces made of di�erent materials(polyethylene, polyurethane,viscoelastic and shape-memorymaterials), internationally developedand patented, specifically designed tofoster training, rehabilitation andreeducation of muscles and ligamentsthrough a barefoot stimulation, withoutplacing burden on the joints.

These materials allow the HumanTecar Mat to:

» Stimulate the mechanoreceptorslocated on the sole of the foot» Avoid mechanical shock andoverloading of the osteoarticular system

» Promote energy expenditure(approximately 25% more comparedto a rigid surface).

16

DunesThe platform simulates the uneven sandysoil; improves stabilization muscle work(200x54x7cm).

Multi DensityPlatform with rigid frame, in which areinserted die�erent density pillows, that can be removed or inserted in accordance to most suitable sequence for rehabilitation purposes (200x54x14cm).

Basic Pillow - PillowMedium density pillow, to be used alone orwith the other platforms to carry outexercises with more eneregy expenditure or more complex rehab gymnastics. (Available in two dimensions 40x30x12cm and 60x35x12cm).

NeedlePlatform with rigid frame and medium elastic thrust bottom, with a rubber needles carpet put on the bottom; micro foot massage, circulatory stimulation, very suitable for the rehabilitation of neurological patients (190x80x7cm).

SlantPlatform inclined laterally to 4,5°, thatreproduces smooth sand at mediumintensity (200cmx80cmx incl.15/7).

17

Rocking BoxPlyometric cubes with limited elastic response in di�erent heights; they can be combined with tilting unstable surfaces. (Available in three dimensions 90x75x27cm - 90x75x42cm - 90x75x55cm).

Rocker Base for Rocking BoxUsed individually as unstable tilting surface or to be applied to the Rolling Box.(Available in two dimensions 9cm and 12cm).

Rocker Round Base for Rocking BoxUsed individually as over all axles unstablefloor or applied to the Rolling Box.

Ascending Descending Set4 modular units, allow to carry outproprioceptive exercises on head-on inclined plane and steps; to use in sport too for physical preparation (Cuboid 80x80x45cm - Step 80x40x15cm - Step 80x40x30cm - Ramp 200x80x inc.45/7).
