Abstract
Background. The present study is an evaluation of the value of WaDiT in the rehabilitation of patients with dysfunctions of the motor apparatus. Material and methods. We examined 100 female patients aged 40-60 diagnosed with osteoarthritic lesions in the lumbar spine. All these women underwent a 3-month course of kinesitherapy; 60 of them also received WaDiT procedures prior to each kinesitherapy application. Results. The findings in the WaDiT group indicate increased mobility of the spine and improvements in the dynamic and static parameters of the posture stabilizer muscles. Such results were not found in the group of patients who received kinesitherapy alone. Conclusuons. WaDiT can be a valuable supplement to kinesitherapy.

Key words:
kinesitherapy, osteoarthritic lesion of the spine, mobility
