Spinal Cord Injury

Providing physical, occupational, speech therapy and personal training for catastrophic injuries is at the heart of what we do—it is why we were founded, and continues to be one of our most effective programs today.  
The Spinal Cord Injury Program makes The Recovery Project a truly unique place.  The program is a research-based, multi-phased program with specific goals, protocols, and equipment usage designed to maximize recovery for SCI.  Once the patient is evaluated by our team, a customized program specific to the client is created, and is administered by licensed therapists and trainers with an expertise in SCI.  
Our therapists and trainers are both knowledgeable and trained in the latest SCI research. The research states that recovery is derived from the principles of neuroplasticity, which allows our clients to “reroute” their dysfunctional nervous system as it relates to strength, motor learning and overall function. Our therapists/trainers are able to enhance these positive changes to the nervous system by utilizing our state of the art equipment.
This program goes beyond the treatment interventions as we also perform manual/power wheelchair assessments, DME assessments, identify adaptive equipment needs and hold monthly team meetings to make sure all needs are being met. Thus the program takes an all- encompassing approach to produce the greatest amount of recovery possible and promote the highest quality of life.

The PEN program goes beyond treatment interventions, as we also perform manual/power wheelchair assessments, home evaluations, DME assessments, adaptive equipment needs consulting, and monthly meetings to make sure all needs are being met. Furthermore, upon acceptance into the program, patients are given a flash drive that has the information needed for a return to independence both at home and in the community (work, school, recreational activities). In this way, The Recovery Project takes a comprehensive, holistic approach that yields the greatest amount of recovery possible and promotes the highest quality of life.
