Interactive therapeutic games

A large number of games are available. This allows the therapists to choose the right game for each patient, based on task orientation. The external focus, which zones in on the planned effect of the motion is an ideal approach for motion training. Specifically developed rhythmic games allow for the training of timing, which is extremely important for a proper gait pattern. Asymmetries are detected in real-time and are trained with therapeutic games. It promotes and facilitates the integration of newly learned behavior into everyday life.

Strengthening of gait relevant muscles with leg press

The leg press mode trains the strength of gait relevant muscles, e.g. quadriceps, in either coupled or uncoupled mode. The uncoupled mode prevents the stronger side from actively taking over – both legs can be trained individually at the same time, thus leading to a more effective and successful therapy. Concentric, eccentric or isometric strengthening exercises allow for an overall training of all muscles required for the physiological gait cycle.

Cardiorespiratory trainer - Cycling

OMEGO® BASIC allows training options in ergometer mode even with restricted joint mobility. While cycling in the passive mode, the lower limb joints are symmetrically mobilized. The assistive mode allows training active muscle power within individual limits of performance, thus increasing the therapy’s success and effect substantially. While training actively, specific motoric abilities such as coordination, sequence of movements and exertion can be trained with different modes (endurance, resistance). The symmetry recognition detects and prevents asymmetries.

Stepper

The stepper mode allows for the training of knee joints‘ range of motion, muscular strengthening and symmetry. Active (with and without resistance), passive (symmetric mobilization) and assistive (as little support as possible) settings allow for the specific and goal-oriented training within the patient’s individual limits of performance.

Foot drop

For a physiological gait pattern the lifting of the foot while in the swing phase is vital. The foot-lifting mode is ideal for training the movement of the ankle. The passive mode mobilizes the ankle and visualizes the course of movement.

Resistance and/or assistance are set individually in the active or the assistive mode to allow for an individually tailored training, depending on the degree of difficulty.
