Why Gymna Uniphy Couches

For your patient...

   
• Height adjustment: always at a height that is safe and easy to get onto, taking their physical condition into account.

• Unique Gymna face opening : leaves the eyes and mouth free, but still provides enough support without any painful pressure spots. The patient is relaxed and can still communicate with you.

• Padded edges: prevents pressure spots under the limbs.

• Hinges : extra narrow and covered with upholstery so that the patient will hardly feel it.

• Cushion distribution : the best possible compromise for both large and small people.
• Heating : optional integrated cushion heating for increased comfort and relaxation.

• Damped gas springs : the slowed down action prevents any sudden and uncomfortable movements.

... and for you! (The Professional)

• Perfect working height : you are always able to adjust the height in order to make the best use of your strength during manipulations and to avoid injuries at the same time.

• Leg and Sitting Room : The narrow undercarriage provides optimum legroom, even when using a stool.

• The "peripheral switch system" : the solution for adjusting the height from any position around the couch. Neatly concealed beneath the construction – plenty of legroom and improved safety.

• Central system to lift the wheels : one movement of the foot, and the treatment couch is on its wheels. Can be reached from either side of the couch.

• Intuitive operation: levers just where you expect them to be, always within reach and easy to use.

• Softtex handgrips: pleasantly soft yet tough handgrips on the levers.

• Non-slip undercarriage : the couch won’t shift during manipulations, thanks to the special polypropylene feet on the undercarriage.

 • Gas springs : support your patient silently and reliably. The gas springs help actively when adjusting the cushions, which makes your job easier.

• Fold-down sections: for a better working position during manipulations and mobilisations of the spinal column.

• Motorized middle section: for maximum ease of use and accurate flex setting (optional).
• Motorized head section: perfect for making fine adjustments in the cervical-cranial region without interrupting your cranial osteopathy session.

• Voice Control : a unique and innovative system (patent pending) to operate all motors hands-free with the peripheral switch only. Simply use your voice to command the couch which motor to move and push the switch. Never look for another switch anymore!

Gymna Stability Profile

A treatment couch with GSP guarantees high dynamic stability, which makes it a safe and efficient investment.

The dynamic stability determines how well a treatment couch responds to changing loads, e.g. when the patient is getting on or off, when exercises are being carried out or as a result of the forces used in manipulation.

Two factors are important here:
1. the way the couch moves as a reaction to the dynamic forces.
2. the response time required by the couch to correct this displacement.

The smaller the motion and the shorter the response time, the better the dynamic stability.

Gymna treatment couches cut springiness down to a minimum and this dynamic behaviour is defined in the Gymna Stability Profile. GSP means that your energy goes into the treatment and not into the mechanics.

With GSP, you can give your full attention to fixation of the patient and localisation of your treatment, while the patient feels comfortable and can trust the therapy you have selected. 

What is the secret of the Gymna Stability Profile exhibited by our couches?
Decades of experience in the development and production of treatment couches, combined with technological advances and close collaboration with practitioners has resulted in a 20% increase in stability when our couches are compared to those of our competitor. With the aid of 3D-CAD software the frame and cushions on our couches provide the stability you need to offer your patients effective treatment.

A modified positioning of the pneumatic springs and motors and the very latest in advanced production techniques guarantee that we can offer a high precision, high quality treatment couch.

What does the Stability Profile of our couches mean for you and your patient?
A stable treatment couch means that you can have confidence in your couch. No matter how variable the load on your couch, you can continue with treatment, secure in the knowledge that your couch will remain stable.

This means that you can concentrate on the treatment without having to worry about the ability of your couch to cope with the demands you place on it. Being able to devote all your attention on the treatment means that you use less energy to achieve the desired effect and that you can localise your treatment optimally.

For your patient, the stability of our couches means ensures that they can perform exercises in the way that you desire. They can perform exercises in a relaxed environment, confident that the couch will provide support, even during the most difficult exercises.

In short, the stability profile of our couches guarantees a stable treatment couch in your practice.
