RehaMove for Arm and Leg Training |

We have had a number of clients with higher level spinal cord injury looking for an ability to exercise the arms and shoulders. A new version of RehaMove is now available with software and hardware to actively exercise the arms - and the legs - in one compact system.
The principle for arm training is just the same as that used in the established leg training model...Custom software in the stimulator unit sends pulses to make the muscles
of the arm contract.
These pulses are synchronised with the position
of the arm crank. The system regulates the pulses to provide active
exercise supported automatically by a built-in motor. As the muscles
become more efficient and effective the motor's power is reduced
ensuring that the user is always exercising safely and effectively.
Custom hand/arm cuffs can be supplied to suit various levels of hand and arm function.
When the user has finished the arm training session, the arm crank can be rotated out of the way. The result is a remarkably compact system that one session may be used for leg training and the next session for leg training. You decide.
The stimulator programmes can easily be varied to match the changing performance of the the user and are suitable for people with complete or incomplete sensor lesions.
