TRP offers state of the art Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) equipment which is utilized in conjunction with evidenced based treatment approaches. FES uses pulses of electrical current to stimulate peripheral nerves that evoke contractions and patterned muscle activity. FES is applied using adhesive pads placed over the muscles to be activated, and creates patterned movements in the arms, legs and trunk.
Benefits from FES include increased circulation to improve wound healing, increased bone density, improved cardiovascular health, improved range of motion, Decreased spasticity , reverse muscle atrophy, improved functional ADL’s, improved gait and improved swallowing.
