What therapy goals are usually pursued with the THERA-Trainer tigo?

The therapy goals that are usually pursued with the THERA-Trainer tigo can vary depending on the individual needs and abilities of the patient. However, here are some typical therapy goals that are targeted with the THERA-Trainer tigo:

 

Improving mobility: the THERA-Trainer tigo can be used to improve patients’ ability to move. This includes strengthening muscles, improving joint mobility, and promoting coordination and balance.

 

Restoring motor function: following a stroke, spinal cord injury or other neurological condition, THERA-Trainer tigo can be used to restore motor skills. This may include the ability to perform certain movements, such as reaching for objects or walking.

 

Increasing endurance: The THERA-Trainer tigo can be used to improve patients’ cardiovascular fitness and endurance. Targeted training on the device can improve physical performance and increase resilience.
Increasing strength: The THERA-Trainer tigo can also be used for resistance training to improve patients’ muscle strength.

 

Spasticity and Pain management: For patients with spasticity and chronic pain, the THERA-Trainer tigo can be used to provide exercise therapy that can help to relieve. Controlled movements and targeted training can relax muscles and reduce pain.

 

Promoting independence in everyday life: An important therapy goal with the THERA-Trainer tigo is to promote independence and autonomy in everyday life. This can include improving the ability to get around independently, perform daily activities such as dressing or cooking, and improving overall quality of life.

 

However, it is important to note that therapy goals are tailored to the individual patient and should be determined in consultation with the treating therapist.
 

How does the tigo differ from the other THERA-Trainer Cycling products?

The THERA-Trainer tigo is the ultimate workhorse for training in the clinical setting, in the care setting and for training at home. The tigo can be used to exercise exclusively in a seated position. This is the main difference to the THERA-Trainer bemo, which is specifically designed for training in a lying or semi-lying position. Compared to the THERA-Trainer mobi, the particularly light, compact trainer in the Cycling product line, the tigo is more powerful and can be more individually configured.
 

How is the THERA-Trainer tigo different from other Cycling products on the market?

The THERA-Trainer tigo is an extremely powerful and safe medical device. This distinguishes the trainer from many low-cost alternatives available on the market. In addition, the tigo has specific biofeedback-controlled training programs and, in combination with the THERA-soft, can even be combined with therapeutic games in virtual worlds. And the best part? The THERA-Trainer tigo is extremely powerful and easy to use. Setup takes less than a minute and passive, assistive or active training can begin immediately – A difference that is noticeable in daily routine.
 

How THERA-Trainer tigo fits into the THERA-Trainer complete solution concept?

The THERA-Trainer tigo can be a valuable component of a THERA-Trainer complete solution in many clinical and non-clinical settings and can be excellently combined with other products from the Cycling line, as well as with products of our Standing & Balancing and Gait line. Explore our Professional Focus Areas to get a better understanding of our Complete Solutions for the lower levels of rehabilitation.

 

With our THERA-Trainer complete solution, we help you transform our THERA-Trainer devices into an evidence-based, clinically proven treatment concept for lower extremities. The use of our THERA-Trainers simplifies therapists’ work, maximises patients’ outcomes and can be implemented economically and sustainably.

 

However, instead of arguing with a package deal here, we prefer to tailor your individual THERA-Trainer solution according to your specific needs and circumstances. We agree on milestones and KPIs together. And we take our time for analysis, planning and implementation. Contact us and let our specialists advise you individually.
 

Can the THERA-Trainer tigo also be used in combination with therapy devices from other manufacturers?

Of course. Naturally, THERA-Trainer products are perfectly matched in terms of their functionality and interoperability. But they can also be used in combination with other existing equipment or equipment from a different manufacturer. Depending on the specific use case, this may even make sense. We have close collaborations with some manufacturers of other products, which allows you to benefit from special offers and bundled deals. Get in Touch with us. We would be happy to provide information on this and share our experience from customer projects.

What customers say about THERA-Trainer

Robot-assisted training has been a domain of gait rehabilitation for some time. It has to be said: the technology has no value in itself for rehabilitation. But for therapists and patients, it would be much more costly to achieve the same result with conventional therapy.

Sabine Lamprecht
Physical therapist, MSc. Neurorehabilitation, Clinical expert

One advantage of training with the THERA-Trainer is that the training stimulus can be set sufficiently high and frequently at home, as it makes perfect sense to train daily or better three times a day.

I can only advise those who have similar illnesses to also get a THERA-Trainer.

Affected spinal cord injury patient

The THERA-Trainer has been a faithful piece of training equipment from the start of my wheelchair career. My first encounter with it was in hospital. I then had it prescribed so that I could also train at home.

Klaus Hergert
Patient with spinal muscular atrophy

I found using the THERA-Trainer to be an excellent addition to my physiotherapy and occupational therapy sessions and so I decided to buy one for home use so that I could practise regularly from home alongside my necessary therapies.
