What is FES Cycling?

This is a therapeutic activity that uses transcutaneous electrical current to initiate muscle contractions of paralysed lower limbs in persons who have sustained a spinal cord injury or been affected by stroke or MS. The order and strength of the muscle contractions are controlled by computer to generate the power to pedal a stationary cycle. The aim is not to provide passive motion - but to actively engage the muscles to generate muscle strength and improve fitness.

Benefits

Key benefits of FESCycling exercise are as follows:

Cardio-pulmonary fitness
Rebuild muscle strength and bulk
Improve bone density
Improve blood circulation
Improve intestinal & bladder function
Improve response to insulin (diabetes)
Decrease limb spasticity
Improved feelings of well-being

FES is a useful in many cerebral motor lesions of the lower limbs including Paraplegia/ Spinal Cord Injury and Stroke

Part of Life

Remember this is not a treatment and certainly not a "cure" - but can be health-giving a part of daily life.
