Check out the Myocycle!

This week we are introducing a new piece of equipment we have at NeuroLab 360: The Myocycle!

The Myocycle is a form of functional electrical stimulation (FES) that works to assist someone with weakness to achieve maximum muscle activation. FES can be beneficial for many people with altered muscle function and can help reduce muscle spasms, prevent muscle atrophy, increase local blood circulation, and maintain or increase range of motion. Research is even showing that FES cycling can help improve cardiovascular health and increase bone density. The Myocycle can be used as a warmup during a physical therapy session or as a stand-alone exercise. In a physical therapy session, you may perform a 10-minute warm up on the Myocycle prior to working on walking to help improve muscle activity. The Myocycle is easy to use and is included in our monthly open gym plus membership. Contact us below to learn more or schedule a time to try out the Myocycle!
