Verticalization stand THERA – Trainer verto

The THERA-Trainer verto is a standing frame designed to verticalise heavily immobilised patients. It effectively facilitates physiological verticalisation and improves trunk and head postural control in very early and difficult cases after coma or surgery. Padded hip support, padded knee supports (adjustable width, depth and height) and a non-slip platform ensure patient stability. Even the most severely ill patients can be easily and safely mobilised in less than 3 minutes.

The THERA-Trainer is worthy of being used to achieve these therapeutic goals:

• Improving uprightness: the THERA-Trainer Verto can help people who cannot stand independently. Verto creates a stable environment that allows the patient to support weight on the lower limbs, thus improving bone density, muscle activation and joint stability.
• Enhancing postural control: the THERA-Trainer Verto can help improve postural control. By placing the patient in an upright position, the verto trainer encourages the postural muscles to engage and strengthen. This is particularly useful for people with cerebral palsy, spinal cord injuries or other neuromuscular disorders.
• Prevention of contractures and muscle strain: prolonged immobilisation can cause muscle contractures and strain. With THERA-Trainer verto, problems can be prevented or reduced.
• Improving circulation and cardiovascular health: the THERA-Trainer verto helps to improve circulation, prevent venous congestion and stimulate the cardiovascular system.
• Improving bone health: standing is essential for maintaining bone density and preventing osteoporosis. The THERA-Trainer verto enables people with limited mobility to perform standing exercises that can help improve bone health and reduce the risk of fractures.
• Improving functional performance: the THERA-Trainer verto helps to improve the patient’s functional performance by providing a secure support for everyday tasks such as reaching, grasping or other upper limb activities, thus promoting independence.

THERA-Trainer is worth using for the following clinical conditions and indications:

• Stroke (apoplexy, haemiplegia, bleeding in the brain)
• Parkinson’s disease
• Multiple sclerosis
• Paraplegia (paraplegia, tetraplegia)
• Muscle diseases (muscular dystrophy, muscular atrophy)
• Skull and brain injuries
• Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)
• Apalik’s syndrome (coma vigilans, aphasia)
• Infantile cerebral palsy
• Polio syndrome
• Guillain Barré syndrome (GBS)
• Polyneuropathy (e.g. due to spinal canal stenosis)
• Rheumatism, arthrosis, arthritis
• Knee and hip joint TEP
• Many other clinical cases with limitations of movement.
