I know that my condition will not improve with the use of the THERA-Trainer due to my progressive disease. But it contributes greatly to my well-being, supports my physiotherapy and helps me to maintain my current state of health and slow down the progression of my muscular atrophy.

In this way, in-bed cycling trainer such as the THERA-Trainer bemo support gait rehabilitation, especially in the first few days after surgery, before patients are transferred to a rehabilitation clinic.

I like very much that the patients are able to wheel right up in their wheelchairs and be secured by the straps on the bottom the foot plates work very well to hold the patient’s foot down where it needs to be.

I think it’s great that I have little or no set-up time with it. For upper body training, all I have to do is drive the wheelchair there and I can start straight away. I do need a few hand movements to get my legs moving, but it’s really quick. The good thing is that I can do it all independently despite my severe paralysis.

The THERA-Trainer really helps me to maintain my ability to walk. I have loose legs again, hardly any spasticity and have become much more mobile.
