Dynamic
Neural Stimulation:
This is one of the most important aspects to regaining
function. We focus on stimulating the client's nervous
system through different movements. This is where
our staff is trained to assist the client's nervous
system and assist them in completing movements.
After repetitions over time the nervous system will
begin to adapt to this stimulus. |

Load
Bearing:
Getting into the load bearing positions is a key
aspect of recovery. This allows the nervous system
to experience the stress of bearing the body's weight.
This has been shown to have positive benefits including
improved bone density, greater stress on the muscles,
and an increase in nervous system adaptations.

Vibration
Training:
Vibration training allows even greater demand to
be forced on the body. Many will experience an increase
in sensation and function when performing activities
while vibration training. Vibration training will
also incorporate aspects of load bearing and has
also shown many of the same benefits. |

Gait
Training:
Gait Training is learning the correct patterns needed
to take steps. This ambulatory training is done
at many different levels and is adjusted to the
client's abilities and gains recovery. Gait training
can be done passively, actively, and assisted. |

FES
(Functional Electrical Stimulation):
FES is a rehabilitation technique whereby electrical
current stimulates nerves to evoke muscle contractions.
FES creates patterned movement of the legs, enabling
the muscles to work and perform active cycling and
increase muscle mass. |
