The TherapyTrainer is the Ultimate tool in road to recovery!

• Physical Therapists/Physician using the TherapyTrainer for upper and lower extremity injuries. Having better knowledge of what routine the patient is following between visits--whether exercising under, over or right on target. This allows the patient and the Therapist to reach their targeted recovery the safest and quickest way possible. Reviewing the tracking log prior to or during a visit, the Physical Therapist/Physician can evaluate the progress, or lack there of, with the patient and use the information in the tracking log to make adjustments for patients home therapy sessions. By providing the patient this tool and the help of their Physical Therapist/Physician, it will keep their motivation up and help to stop those set backs in their recovery. Set backs can mean additional surgery, additional physical therapy, lost job time for the patient, etc... All costing the insurance companies more money.

• Shoulder injuries can be costly, known to have a long recovery time as well as continued reoccurring problems. By setting the TherapyTrainer on a sturdy table or counter, a patient can stand with their arm extended straight out to the side of their body, grab the pedal and move their arm/shoulder in a circular motion, making sure that they maintain flexibility throughout their recovery and thereafter. An injured shoulder that is not exercised will become stiff and unmovable and may even require additional surgery to allow movement again.

• Physical therapy for stroke or disabled patients will greatly benefit from cycle therapy. With the right hand, they are able to pedal the bike and their left arm will also be getting the physical exercise that it needs.

• Patients recovering from cardiac problems are often asked to exercise and maintain a certain heart rate while exercising. The “Heart Monitor and Chest Strap” will work with the TherapyTrainer andl allow the patient to do this accurately from home with the TherapyTrainer. Cardiac patients who have access to the TherapyTrainer, even after recovery, will only continue to get stronger. Cardiac patients often relapse and experience set backs regularly due to depression and lack of exercise equipment that will fit in to their smaller sized homes. The benefits from a cardiac patient having access to continued physical exercise, with a log that a doctor could monitor during annual visits, could be an “invaluable” tool in helping a doctor better recognize future problems.

• Amputees must keep up their upper body strength. The TherapyTrainer has proved invaluable in helping in this area.

• So many Military men and women are returning from Iraq and Afghanistan with injuries that require extended hospitalization. It has been widely documented detailing the struggles they go through to become well enough to leave the hospital and return to the families that love them. During physical therapy in the hospital settings, they are there to encourage each other, compete with each other and motivate each other to reach their goals and to not let each other give up. The bonds they create are irreplaceable! Once they reach their goals they go home to their families and they are no longer in contact with the ones who were invaluable to their recovery. Many of these Veterans suffer depression and set backs that require them to have to return to the hospital. Depression, violence, and attempted suicides along with the physical set back of just giving up. Veterans with TherapyTrainer’s would be able to maintain that connection with the buddies they went through therapy with. The TherapyTrainer can track the workout while a user is on-line playing games, virtual reality worlds, etc. Veterans who are no longer in the hospital together, but may live thousands of miles away from each other, can meet up on-line everyday and work out together just like they did in the hospital. Allowing them to keep intact the bonds that helped them become well enough to leave the hospital in the first place. Voice capability would allow them to converse with each other in the same way they did in the hospital. By helping these injured Veterans maintain their bonds with each other, we just may be helping them to not experience the debilitating depression that so many are now suffering. No one understands what they went through or what they are going through now more than their military buddies.

Comments from Physical Therapists that have been using the TherapyTrainer…

• Elderly patients do not experience the stability and mobility issues when they are able to use a TherapyTrainer vs. a stationary or recumbent bike.

• The Physical Therapists that have patients with a TherapyTrainer in their homes are seeing a very exciting achievement in the reduction of pain medication consumed by those patients. When a patient has access to the TherapyTrainer in their home they are able to turn to the TherapyTrainer to help them in the “locked or cramping sensations.” The result is large reduction in the consumption of pain killers, Physical Therapists ecstatic!

• Occupational Therapists are using the bike to aide their patients in strengthening their grips.

• The first major step in Physical Therapy is for patients to reach a mobility that allows them to begin the “pedal” portion of their therapy. The patients with access to a TherapyTrainer are able to start the “pedal” therapy much sooner because of the smaller pedal radius of the TherapyTrainer. This not only speeds up the patient’s recovery physically but is a big mental boost for them.
