With the single-nerve fiber action potential recording method and
the single-motor unit electromyography, the functioning of the
human central nervous system (CNS) is analysed at the single-neuron
level under physiologic conditions following injury, malformation
and degeneration. It is shown that the self-organisation of the
neuronal networks of the human CNS by phase and frequency
coordination becomes impaired following all nervous system
diseases. Out of the differences between the functioning of the
healthy and pathologically functioning CNS, a repair treatment is
developed called Co-ordination Dynamics Therapy (CDT). This
movement-based learning therapy is able to improve almost every
nervous system in its functioning by functional and structural
repair for all ages including premature born babies and in aging.
The therapy progress with CDT can be quantified by using the System
Theory of Pattern Formation. By pattern change, given by a special
CDT device, a single value is obtained for the quality of CNS
functioning. Especially the tremor in Parkinson's disease and the
urinary bladder repair in spinal cord injury are analysed in detail
by the human neurophysiologic recording methods and clinical
assessments. The repair of the human nervous system is shown in
cross-sectional and longitudinal studies in mild and severe
traumatic brain and spinal cord injuries. By applying CDT, CNS
functioning can also be improved in Parkinson's disease and in
aging. The rate of improvement/repair by learning is measured in
the healthy and the diseased nervous systems. It is emphasised that
the efficacy of movement-based learning therapies may differ by a
factor of 100. A powerful tool in learning is the learning
transfer. By training integrative movements, including automatisms,
not only the trained movements can be improved, but also the
vegetative and higher mental functions can be repaired as, for
example, continence, speech and cardiovascular performance.
