We believe the central nervous system is primarily responsible with cognition. However, 80% of its function is concerned with movement. The brilliant Muscle Manual Test was created in the polio era addressing a muscle disease of the 1950's as an excellent measuring tool. Presently, it gives limited functional information in today's world and does not give us the documentation needed to move forward with the patient as well as future goals of the insurance industries' constantly changing demands for authorization. LE Rehab™ is already being looked at by insurance companies who see it as a machine that will improve the quality of care of their patients as well as get them out of rehabilitation faster.
LE Rehab™ solves dilemmas such as:
All of these exercises and others will aid the Physical Therapists with their vast knowledge of anatomy to efficiently use their skill of movement with greater ease and improve results. Physical Therapists will find this machine helpful in achieving normal movement beyond the state of art of other modalities available today, and will progress patients faster to recovery.
Our team consists of two Physical Therapy designers, as well as an Orthopedic Surgeon who has seen his patient's progress more rapidly with less pain post surgery, as well as minimizing post operative reflex inhibition. As Physical Therapists, we have finally seen the respect we deserve in Physical Therapy. LE Rehab™ will add to this by addressing the whole movement system which is our specialty in the medical field. We cannot follow old concepts year after year and expect to have an equal place in the medical community.
We, as Physical Therapists, are the offspring of the father of anatomy, and the great people who follow him. LE Rehab™ is bringing us into the twenty-first century to increase function and increase mobility.
