MOTIONrehab implement the Tyrosolution

The UK's first Intensive Outpatient and Residential Neurological Rehabilitation Centre augmented with robotics and virtual reality

On Tuesday 11th April 2018, MOTIONrehabtook delivery of the TYROSOLUTIONby TYROMOTION. MOTIONrehab based in Leeds is the UK’s first Intensive Outpatient & Residential* Neurological Rehabilitation Facility augmented by Robotics and Virtual Reality. The centre will include a range of upper and lower limb robotics and virtual reality technology. The MOTIONrehab centre will be the only location within Europe to combine these particular devices under one roof, giving the clinic International Reference Centre Status for treatment, teaching and research.

The new concept offers patients specialist one to one hands-on therapy from experienced and highly skilled clinicians. Uniquely, MOTIONrehab clients will also spend time training with the robotic and virtual reality devices individually and in groups. This allows patients to practice high repetitions of movements which is critical to neuro-plasticity and the optimisation of outcomes.

The team at Ectron believe that Tuesday was an important milestone for neurological rehabilitation in the UK. It might not be in everybody's reach yet and it might not, at first impressions be everybody's solution but Ectron believes that one day the industry will look back at this implementation as the start of when neurological rehabilitation began to change. Whilst recognising that a lot of work has been done by many people to develop technology as an aid to rehab it has primarily been used as part of the traditional service delivery. Technology has provided the means for mass practise and repetition, however MOTIONrehab is the first facility in the UK to offer high intensity rehabilitation programmes with specialist 'hands-on' therapy augmented with robotics and virtual reality. This means the investment in technology is being used to leverage and expand he skills of the clinicians and not replace them but boost productivity. In turn this will allow for a higher dose of therapy.

MOTIONrehab launch date awaits, look out for more news over the coming weeks.

Tees Neuro Therapy Training: A New Era in Neurological Rehabilitation & Strength Conditioning Since relocating to the newly expanded 4,000 sq. ft. facility, Tees Neuro Physiotherapy are launching a groundbreaking service: Tees Neuro Therapy Training . This innovative program introduces a new dimension to neurological rehabilitation by integrating Medical Training Therapy (MTT)—an approach that emphasizes strength and conditioning to complement traditional neurological physiotherapy. What Is Tees Neuro Therapy Training? Tees Neuro Therapy Training is designed for individuals recovering from neurological conditions who are ready to take their rehab to the next level—or maintain their health and mobility long-term. It’s ideal for patients who want to build upon the gains they’ve made in physiotherapy or those who are transitioning into more independent exercise but still need specialist support. At the heart of this service will be the UK's first centre to offer a suite of Tyromotion MTT devices, (including the LEXO , Amadeo , Myro and Tyrostation ) engineered for disabled access and neuro-rehab settings. These state-of-the-art tools offer a safe, adaptive, and empowering way to train—an option that simply isn’t available in standard gyms. They will be the first in the UK to house this kit which uniquely works by using compressed air for strength training rather than weights. An absolute game changer for exercise!

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.
