MINI CLINIC ™ design supports three valuable healthcare recognized physical rehabilitation treatment approaches:

Standing Therapy

Standing therapy improves motor function for individuals who lack the strength to stand and keeps them in a good position to stretch their lower extremity and trunk muscles for extended periods. This stretch can help to maintain and improve lower extremity range of motion. Standing has a positive effect on spasticity. Decreasing spasticity assists in maintaining and improving range of motion and improving overall level of function. Standing has been shown to improve circulatory, gastrointestinal, bowel control, and respiratory functions.

Partial Weight Bearing (PWB)

Unweighting system to reduce weight and pressure for comfortable loading onto the muscles and joints.

Body Weight-Support (BWS)

Body Weight Support (BWS) training is an intervention used to provide an environment that facilitates re-learning of gait following a neurological injury.

Neuro-Plasticity Approach

Ability for the nervous system to reorganize, re-wire, transform, and renew itself. Neuroplasticity is how we adapt to changing conditions, learn new facts, and develop new skills. If the brain is injured, it tries to repair itself with these normal mechanisms. The old model assumed that a person was born with a finite number of brain cells, and when a cell died, no new cell grew in its place. This old model is no longer relevant because it has been proven that certain areas within the brain can generate new cells as well as create new neural pathways.
