Key Points

Problem:

Most stroke rehabilitation programs focus on short term improvement, ending just a few months after a patient has had a stroke or a traumatic brain injury.

There is no effective post rehabilitation solution for the millions of impaired patients who can’t use traditional treadmills or afford continued rehabilitation

Problem solved:

The Advanced Therapeutic Treadmill Seat provides gait training, balance improvement, enables seated position for lower body exercise and full standing position for full body exercise.

Product Solution:

Impaired patients will be able to begin home rehabilitation with exercise before they are able to stand. Patients can exercise with one leg while the other is stationary or with both if able. The product is designed for post rehabilitation exercise that does not require the participation of a physical therapist. It is designed for use in the home with a traditional treadmill as well as in a clinical setting.

  • Patented seat device enabling safe mount and dismount
  • Unit issued first patent in 2004, second patent pending
  • Provides safe, independent home use of treadmill or recumbent cycle
  • Offers full featured health monitoring system with data transfer
  • Provides automatic stop-start features

Points of Amazement:

The “Safety and Convenience” The Advance Therapeutic Seat can be used independently in the home for varying levels of patient conditions by provoking multiple levels of stabilizing support features.

The “Affordability” The Seat system can be used in the home when clinical therapy can no longer be maintained due to cost, insurance limitations etc.

Over 15 million new incidences a year for the following conditions can benefit from gait therapy using a treadmill

Stroke Vestibular (balance) Head Injury
Spinal Cord Alzheimer’s Amputee
Older Adult patients Cerebral Palsy Hip/Knee injuries

Of those patients, 31% are prescribed outpatient rehabilitating treatments while 8% will require: “full body” exercise regimes. This device targets those 8% or 102 million patients

In 2008 groundbreaking new medical research proved stroke patients could and would benefit from using a treadmill that was adapted to their needs years after a stroke.
