Spring

 
If we had no winter, the spring would not be so pleasant; if we did not sometimes taste of adversity, prosperity would not be so welcome.  ~Anne Bradstreet

Message from Germany

Alexandra LemkeNew MOTOmed study published in the professional neurology journal "NEUROGERIATRIE" in Germany!

"Use of an Assistive Movement Training Apparatus in the Rehabilitation of Geriatric Patients"

The study shows significant improvements in the walking ability of the patients using the MOTOmed. Analysis of the results indicates that MOTOmed movement training is an effective and efficient additional therapy to care provided in nursing homes. Therefore, it meets the requirement "rehabilitation superior to nursing care".

In the rehabilitation of geriatric patients, the movement therapy system can contribute to obtaining and increasing one's mobility, to improving endurance and therefore, greater independence in every day life. Independence increases quality of life.

If you are interested in the complete study, please contact alex@motomed.com.
