Since 2017, the Gmundnerberg Therapy Centre has used the THERA-Trainer lyra to improve gait rehabilitation for neurological patients. Robotic gait training boosts neuroplasticity and enables faster recovery through high-repetition, task-specific therapy.
• Frequent repetition
• Task specificity
• Independent activity
• Motivation of the learner
Automated gait therapy, which reduces physical strain during the training and improves efficiency though increased repetitions, is at the cutting edge of technology in this field. The NTG therefore recently started using the state-of-the-art lyra gait trainer. "We are pleased to be one of the first institutions in Austria to offer therapy with lyra. The introduction of end-effector robotics is an important step in the overall care of our patients and enables state-of-the art gait rehabilitation", says Medical Director Dr Hermann Moser, M. Sc.
With the lyra gait trainer, severely affected patients can be gently guided back to daily life, step by step, using gradually adjusted training settings. The patented robotics generate a human gait pattern that specifically stimulates neuroplasticity processes. The combination of high repetition rates and a human gait pattern allows faster therapeutic success in regaining a natural and safe gait pattern. "The lyra trainer optimally supports the patients and therapists in achieving their common goal. With this acquisition, we can make the walking training process offered to our patients more targeted and more effective," says Therapy Manager Maria Anna Kraxberger, who is also enthusiastic about the development.
