Increase Range of Motion*
Maintaining or increasing range of motion
Targets increase in range of motion by creating contraction and movement in the antagonist muscle, thus causing maximum stretch
of the problematic muscle.

Spasticity Treatment*
Maintaining or increasing range of motion
Targets reduction of spasticity by inhibition of motor neurons of the spastic muscle via the reciprocal inhibition reflex. To be used
on the antagonist of the spastic muscle with the intensity sufficient to create movement to the maximum range of motion.

Hemiplegia*
Maintaining or increasing range of motion
Targets re-learning of motor skills and reduction of spasticity. Features long ramp up time o the contraction and a long rest phase.
Can be used to complement traditional physiotherapy after a stroke.

Rotator Cuff, Level 1
Muscle re-education
Targets increase of the muscular function and neuro motor re-education of the rotator cuff. Use to treat disturbed range of motion,
shoulder tendopathies and pain around the shoulder. Training can be combined with active movements.

Post-ACL Treatment (Agonist/Antagonist)
Muscle re-education
Targeting improving active stability of the knee joint after rupture of the ACL. This is a contraction offset session: stimulation starts
on Hamstrings and then continues on the Quadriceps, preventing the risk of the anterior drawer.
