Unparalyzed: Learning to Move Stand and Walk Again Volume 1

Unparalyzed: Learning to Move Stand and Walk Again Volume 1 is a textbook which teaches therapists how to help paralyzed people learn how to move, stand, and walk again after neurological injury or pathology. The current paradigm regarding neurological recovery is that it is incurable. Many people who don't show a clear ability to stand or walk after a neurologic event are never given a chance to try to get better. They are simply cast away to live with their disability. For years, the rehabilitation protocols have gone unchanged. Miracle medicines, surgeries, and interventions have had limited to no general effect. In striving to find a better way, our clinic developed new technology to help patients stand and walk again. The perspective that this machine gave us completely changed the way we implemented activity-based therapy creating a breakthrough for our paralyzed patients. This book highlights the lessons we've learned and provides a reproducible system of therapy that greatly improves recovery outcomes for our patients.
