The latest generation of Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) device for hand function rehabilitation. The Fesia Grasp is a hand neurorehabilitation device, based on scientific evidence, for people who have lost the ability to control the hand and finger movement as a result of: Stroke, Multiple Sclerosis, Incomplete Spinal Cord Injury, Cerebral Palsy, Traumatic Brain Injury and other injuries of the central nervous system. Fesia Grasp generates surface electrical stimulation to trigger flexion and extension of the wrist and fingers in order to regain the function of the individual’s hand, his freedom and independence.

We are so pleased to see our Tecnobody Solution at the neuro-rehab outpatient centre in Neurotherapy Worx. The centre, based near Wigan, started using the D-Wall at the beginning of the year and went on to include the Prokin 252, WalkerView, and Data Server devices. Clinic owner, Sarah Wilkinson's experience with the advanced motion tracking, analysis, and therapy programs of the D-Wall has led her to adopt additional solutions, such as the Prokin 252 for balance and proprioception, and the Walker View for gait assessment and training. This strategy is designed to motivate patients and supply valuable data to the physiotherapy team, potentially reducing recovery time.
