Abstract :

With the holistic approach of integrative medicine, we have managed, with the SDPA, SOPHYA and AIFIDER associations, to create a relationship between different disciplines. In the branch of DermatoFunctional Physiotherapy, the study of Trichological Physiotherapy applied to the oncology field allows us to treat many patients in a preventative manner to address the problem of baldness. Over 58% of cancer patients consider alopecia the most traumatizing event, while 8% are willing to give up treatments. The integrated dermatofunctional physiotherapy approach for various clinical pathologies of an aesthetic- functional nature enhances and guarantees objective results, without involving risks inherent in the patient's health, promoting well-being and quality of life. This integrated approach of techniques and knowledge is particularly important in the rehabilitation of mastectomy patients, burn patients, post-traumatic scars, among others. Other essential components of the intervention of the Physiotherapist specialist in Dermatofunctional are the pre- and post-operative phases of Plastic and Aesthetic Surgery. Trichological physiotherapy is the fusion of over 15 years of work, study and research in the trichological field, between manual therapy and physical therapy. What are the results? Physiotherapy trichological therapy has no side effects and is a perfect adjunct to classic therapy, improving the results on the elasticity of the scalp and therefore on the vascularization and microcirculation by 43%. Studies are only at the beginning as a small circle of physiotherapists deals with this branch.
