MOTIONrehab Chose Tyromotion for Hull Clinic

MOTIONrehab announces second Intensive Robotic Rehabilitation Centre.

This week MOTIONrehab announced it will be opening a second Intensive Robotic Neurological Rehabilitation Centre. For a second time, MOTIONrehab has chosen Tyromotion devices for its new robotic and VR suite which will be launching at the end of the year.

The clinic in Hull is opening following the success of MOTIONrehab’s award winning Intensive Robotic Neurological Rehabilitation centre based in Leeds. The new centre will include a significant expansion of their current clinic in Hull based at Warner Health Club. The new robotics technology suite will include a range of upper and lower limb robotics and virtual reality technology from Tyromotion to enable clients to accelerate their outcomes from rehabilitation.

The concept offers patients specialist one to one hands-on therapy from experienced and highly skilled clinicians. Uniquely, MOTIONrehab clients also spend time training with the evidence-based robotic, motion-sensor and virtual reality devices individually and in groups. This allows patients to practice the high number of repetitions of movements which is critical to neuroplasticity and achieving better outcomes faster than traditional hands-on therapy alone.

With the increased research evidence and awareness in how Robotic Assisted Therapy can accelerate and improve outcomes more and more patients are calling value for money in rehabilitation and requesting Robotic Assisted Therapy as part of their rehabilitation programmes. This in turn is leading to more clinics across the UK choosing Tyromotion to support this demand for more efficient and cost-effective therapies.

MOTIONrehab has chosen to add the following Tyromotion devices to its clinic:



MOTIONrehab’s Clinical Director and Business Owner, Sarah Daniel says

“Evidence tells us that patients need to do a high number of repetitions and lots of practice in a dynamic environment to help achieve their rehabilitation goals quicker. This was the vision for MOTIONrehab’s first clinic and what we have seen is the vision really works. The more our patients do the quicker they get better and the more satisfying our jobs are. It might be the smallest of things, suddenly they can stand up for the first time, they can open their fingers for the first time, but when that leads into being able to eat and drink on their own, being able to go back to their own home or even managing to go to the toilet on their own. Those are huge wins from tiny little steps of rehab to get them there.

Seeing that the vision really works has led to MOTIONrehab’s investment in a second robotic technology suite in Hull. The team and I are really excited to expand our services to reach more people with neurological illness and injuries to help them reach their potential.”

Manuel Landeira-Marino, Tyromotion says

“Tyromotion are delighted to be working with the MOTIONrehab team to open their second centre. MOTIONrehab are leading the way in outpatient rehabilitation and have demonstrated their concept of robotic rehabilitation works to help patients get better every day! Their vision and determination are admired in the industry and we look forwards to future projects together!”

In January this year, Neurotherapy Worx in Wigan took delivery of the D-Wall by TecnoBody. Neurotherapy Worx is a specialist team of Adult and Paediatric Therapists based in a fully accessible clinic in Appley Bridge. Neurotherapy Worx offers both clinic and home-based rehabilitation. Over the last two months Neurotherapy Worx have been integrating the D-Wall into their everyday clinic. This short article shares their experiences so far. Has it been easy to integrate D-Wall within your everyday clinic practice? The D-Wall has been easy to integrate into clinic. It has been used during initial assessments, integrated into treatment plans and formal reviews. It enables us to undertake specific assessments and see change over time in patients’ abilities. How easy is the D-Wall to use with regards to patient set up? The D-Wall is very quick to set up once you have created a profile with a client’s date of birth, weight and height recorded. However, it is also possible to try different activities with an adult client without creating a profile. If you spend time in the Monitor facility so that the client understands how their foot position, their upper body and centre of gravity impacts the D-wall, this makes using the other settings, exercises, games more effective during the assessment and treatment process. How are you using D-Wall in clinic? We are using the D-Wall in many different ways! Therapy ·It is really useful for people with one sided weakness. They can visually see their alignment and work actively to try and correct this (previously we would verbally give feedback and facilitate). Good for strengthening and gaming afterwards. D-Wall is good at finding things we would not necessarily pick up on or see. It’s like an extra pair of eyes. We are working with patients and adapting things all the time. Constantly adapting and adjusting the movements. Can be used for a specific part of the session or for the whole treatment session. Trunk control. Balance – within and out of base of support. Look at specific motor control of a specific limb; or address gross motor control. Good to work on balance and trunk control whilst carrying out a more functional / meaningful activity. Engaging children and adults in repetitive movements or using the less dominant limb. Bilateral arm movements. Improve cardiovascular system in a safe supported environment. Muscle strengthening. Use neglected limb. With treadmill. With parallel bars. Using therapy ball for seated activities/games. Assessment and Reporting Standardised, repeatable fitness and health tests The data from D-Wall makes our reports a lot more accurate.
