Robotic Rehabilitation program

29th November 2016Magali BraffUncategorised

Last year, one of my best friends met a doctor that was planning to open a revolutionary rehabilitation center in Antwerp. She told me about this and asked the doctor to keep me up to date via e-mail.

Last Sunday the doctor invited me to a meeting together with other people who have an Acquired Brain Injury (ABI).

At the end of 2017 I have an appointment with the physiotherapists and according to their evaluation I could be selected to start the robotic rehabilitation program.

Scientists now know that the brain has an amazing ability to change and heal itself in response to mental experience. This phenomenon, known as neuroplasticity, is considered to be one of the most important developments in modern science for our understanding of the brain.

The brain is not fixed and unchangeable, as was once thought, but can create new neural pathways to adapt to its needs. This has led to an explosion of interest in the power of brain training to improve our focus, memory attention and performance.

 

TrainM is the first and only outpatient neuro rehabilitation center to offer patients personalized high intensity therapies by a team of doctors and therapists, coupled with non-invasive brain stimulation, neurotechnology, virtual reality, neuro gaming, artificial intelligence and robotics.
