About us Products & Solutions Global distribution Media Careers SUCCESS STORIES Lives being changed DIH devices are being used daily in more than 80 countries around the world. Being at the heart of some of the most respected and cutting-edge institutions in rehabilitation has led to patient lives being changed because of DIH in ways never imagined possible before. These are just some of those stories. Bushra Saeed Patient “I’ve been at the rehab centre for over two years now, and I’ve seen people come in a wheelchair and leave walking without a cane. It’s such a nice feeling to know that the CAREN system is doing such positive work.” Polyclinic Glavić Small Croatian Polyclinic Glavić triples work productivity and achieves 176% ROI in 2 years with modern robotic devices Download the full case study on Hocoma.com Dale B. Hull, MD, Jan Black, MS, PT Neuroworx, USA Achieve best possible results with the Lokomat "The Lokomat allows us to provide our patients with more intensive gait therapy. They experience more repetitions and are motivated by the Augmented Performance Feedback to actively contribute with maximum effort to their therapy. We are reminded daily how this intensity translates into an increase in functional mobility. The Lokomat technology allows us to provide patients with the opportunity for best possible outcomes." The Lokomat has been a valuable addition since day one. Paco Oberwalleney, owner of Therapy Center Herford, explains how he finances treatment with the Lokomat in his practice and how he uses Lokomat as a magnet for new patients with targeted marketing and PR measures. Excellent outpatient therapy for neurological impaired patients – NRC, Fort Worth Get to know the Neurological Recovery Center in Fort Worth, TX. They are an outstanding example for the use of robot-assisted therapy for people with neurological disorders. Gabriele Lilienkamp Patient Giving up was not an option Gabriele was an active person and only 44 years old when she had a stroke which led to hemiparesis of her left side. "I led a very active life; I always had many goals and worked hard to achieve them. It took me a lot to get used to the new situation," explains Gabriele. But 12 years after the stroke, not much had changed and walking still required a lot of effort. Then, a friend told her about the Lokomat. "I find the training with the Lokomat very helpful, as I can work on my balance and I feel safer while walking," she says happily. "I can already walk much faster and roll my foot through the step." The progress she has made after two months of therapy has fueled her motivation. "It’s fantastic what I achieved with this training so far, even all these years after the stroke! I wish all stroke patients could have access to this therapy." His father opened a clinic to get his son the most advanced technology out there to help him walk again. Patient story of Spencer Conti at the NRC in Texas Wilbert Derksen PT in Rorschach, Switzerland Successful integration of the Valedo therapy concept To create the most suitable therapy plan for his patients, Wilbert Derksen plans and discusses the exercises with them beforehand. "The patient can plan the movement and then train as part of the exercises," explains Wilbert. As the patient improves, Wilbert increases the difficulty level to maintain the challenge and the progress. Once they learn the correct movements, the patients can also train at home with the Valedo. "For me as a physiotherapist, it is extremely important that my patients also exercise at home. If they don’t, we make very slow progress in remedying their back pain." When he started working with the Valedo Therapy Concept, Wilbert thought the devices would only attract a specific patient group. "I initially thought that this therapy would only be of interest to young male patients. However, I found out that the ValedoMotion and the Valedo are equally suitable and highly motivating for all my patients." With the Valedo Therapy Concept, he not only motivated his existing patients, but also received many new ones by promoting this therapy. In addition to the therapy at his clinic in Rorschach, Switzerland, Wilbert's patients have the opportunity to rent or buy the Valedo from Wilbert for therapy at home. "Thanks to Valedo, I now have the opportunity to see the type of exercises they do and how often – and I can track their progress. The most motivating aspect is actually seeing their progress with regard to accuracy, fluidity and isolation. Most important is seeing, how much they enjoy training with the software." Prof. Alberto Esquenazi Chief Medical Officer, MossRehab USA Flexibility and ease of use "To facilitate the progression from highly intensive Lokomat robot-aided gait training to training overground for best skill transfer to daily life, we need tools that are extremely flexible. The Andago offers that flexibility and ease of use and I like its versatility, which should allow us to optimally prepare our patients for the wide variety of environments and challenges they need to master in everyday activities." Geni B. Patient I’ve waited 22 years for this moment "Standing up straight and moving forward one step after another for the first time in 22 years is a special feeling. I’m thankful to the Andago for this." Navigation About us Products & Solutions Media Global distribution Careers Contact Contact us How can we help you today?
