Being In Control
A therapist will guide patients through each session of Intento Pro therapy, although the patient is essentially in control. The wheel which releases electrical impulses is managed by them, rather than their therapist
By delivering impulses at the same time as they are trying to make a voluntary movement, they link the two together. Their mind and body begin to understand the intention, a natural reinforcement process.
A tablet app is connected to the device and enhances control. Allowing therapy sessions to be customised to meet individual needs and performance to be monitored, through data directly available in the app.
A Targeted Therapy
There could be other circumstances where Intento Pro would offer value but this is designed to assist people who have suffered stroke, or brain injury. Within that field, there are few limitations for use:
-
Inclusive Approach
Even where there is severe impairment and a lack of voluntary movement, retraining through Intento Pro is perfectly possible.
-
Varied Support
20 different stimulation programmes are available, allowing Intento Pro therapy to meet a range of individual requirements.
-
Ease Of Use
Along with providing data, the app guides patients through their sessions, making each action logical and straightforward.
Your therapist is always there as an additional guide, although having direct control of impulse timing is the most effective route to achieving progress.
