Targeted gait and function training in incomplete spinal cord injury — we work consistently with the potential that remains.
🎯 In an incomplete spinal cord injury some nerve pathways are preserved — which means there is potential for measurable improvement through intensive therapy.
Incomplete spinal cord injury means that some nerve pathways below the level of the lesion are preserved. Depending on the ASIA classification (AIS B, C or D) the remaining potential varies considerably. Neuroplasticity and high-dose training are decisive for improvement.
Some movements work — others do not. Sometimes a sensation arrives, sometimes it does not. Incomplete spinal cord injury is individual and unpredictable — what sets it apart from a complete injury is the potential: with focused intensive therapy, remaining function can be built up and new abilities developed.
Diagnosis and medical care in incomplete spinal cord injury lie with trauma surgeons, orthopaedic surgeons and neurologists. As specialists in rehabilitation after incomplete spinal cord injury our focus is on building up the motor and sensory function that remains, and on improving walking. We work from your medical findings and adapt therapy to how your recovery progresses. The focus is on gait training, balance, building strength and sensory training.
High-dose training with modern equipment matters especially in incomplete spinal cord injury — to make full use of the neuroplasticity that is there. Qualified therapists apply the latest methods precisely.
Incomplete spinal cord injury shows itself very differently in each person — depending on which nerve pathways are preserved.
Some muscles work — others do not. What works, and how much, differs from person to person and can improve with focused therapy.
Sensations arrive in part — but altered. Tingling, burning
Involuntary muscle contractions that make movement harder, cause pain or get in the way — but can also be seen as a sign that function remains.
Walking is possible — but uncertain and slow.
In incomplete spinal cord injury the intensity of therapy makes the difference. With Lyra, Perpedes and a specialist team we draw the most from the nerve pathways you still have.
Straightforward, personal, no waiting list.
Tell us about your difficulties — remaining sensation, partial paralysis, spasticity or unsteadiness when walking. We explain what potential rehabilitation holds in incomplete spinal cord injury and whether we are the right place for you.
We analyse your gait, your balance with the Balo system, how strength is distributed and your sensation. From this comes a therapy plan built specifically on the potential you still have.
Regular sessions of intensive gait and functional training — matched to your progress. At the end there is a follow-up measurement showing what you have achieved.
Real experiences, real progress — how our clients have regained independence, confidence and quality of life despite their diagnosis.
I felt my body taking in signals again. Every session was a discovery of what is still possible.
After complications following surgery the diagnosis was an incomplete spinal cord injury. With boundless determination and intensive movement therapy, Leo R. made it back into the woods to pick mushrooms, on crutches.
