10 Years ago Alan had a motorbike accident, he sustained a brain injury and subsequent stroke. Since his accident he hasn’t walked.

At our previous session we worked on sit-to-stands, weight transfer and stepping in the parallel bars.

Today Alan went in one of our Alter-G Treadmills and walked independently 🎉🎉👍

Dual task training today in the AlterG Anti-Gravity Systems treadmill.

In the video Hamish is using the Stroop Test which helps him improve both his cognitive ability and the automatic function of gait.

Working on how fast we can think while we walk gives confidence and reduces the risk of falls.

Whilst walking he must say the colour of the text and not the word. The words appear on screen with increasing frequency…. Very challenging but a great rehab tool for many neurological conditions !

Today was a good day … It’s 9.5 years since Ally last ran 😱 Due to a combination of a Spinal Cord Injury, a fractured fibula and an FND Diagnosis

We first saw Ally in 2019 and have worked with her since the end of 2023 when she was barely able to walk.

The AlterG Anti-Gravity Systems Treadmill and our very own Flex4ward by Propelus helps to initiate her stride, flex her hips and knees and lift her feet. To progress we will gradually add more bodyweight, removing her reliance on the machine.

Fabulous work Ally …. 🎉🎉

It’s been nearly 7 years since Tracy last visited Brodie Countryfare.

Tracy had a brain injury in 2019 & we’ve worked with her, providing physio & rehab with weekly home visits over the last 4 years.

In the last 12 months she has turned a corner and has made AMAZING Progress (Last year she would have never managed to walk in from the car park and enjoy an afternoon tea).

Today she did … And ate most of the cakes too 😉 … ❤️🎉🎉

Rehab should be engaging and fun, here’s Jake doing amazingly well, working on his recovery after a major RTA.

The BlazePods offer significant benefits for rehabilitation after a head trauma (traumatic brain injury or TBI) by integrating both physical and cognitive training in an engaging, interactive format.

They help improve motor skills, balance, reaction time, and neuroplasticity, which are crucial for recovery.
