Application Spotlight:
Post-CVA Gait & UE Control
I am the occupational therapist who is working with Mr. 'Geno.' I have seen remarkable results from your amazing TheraTogs. Gene is no longer complaining of wrist pain. He is beginning to now grossly open and close the hand. You have to admire both his effort and diligence with which he keeps going and trying.

It's a miracle! I can't believe the difference. It's unbelievable,
the before and after effects of TheraTogs.
-- Geno
When used during the early phases of in-patient rehabilitation after stroke or brain injury, TheraTogs undergarment and strapping systems can be expected to accelerate the return to function by increasing proprioceptive and tactile input, postural stability, and confidence in moving. Early return to function could prevent some loss of muscle strength and prolong the practice of gains made in therapy sessions.
For out-patients -- as Geno’s case video (above) illustrates, if a caregiver or partner is available to don the system at home, then TheraTogs can be used to extend and practice the gains made in therapy into daily life.
TheraTogs Full Body System and/or Adult Shoulder Positioning System are being used by an increasing number of clinicians as a modality for clients recovering from stroke or CVA.
TheraTogs – Like Taking A Therapist’s Hands HomeTheraTogs are comfortable, breathable garments that support and reinforce what an occupational or physical therapist’s hands do to help the physically impaired correct postural or biomechanical problems.
One of the Most Innovative, Versatile, and Progressive Devices on the Market
Because TheraTogs wrap the torso in a Velcro-sensitive ‘strapping field’, it allows the clinician/caregiver to add external muscle - in the form of special elastic strapping - to achieve improved postural alignment and stability for their clients. TheraTogs addresses the widest variety of functional alignment and movement issues of any rehab modality in the market today.
Custom Made Simple
Originally designed for children with complex neuromotor disorders, TheraTogs are now used by thousands of customers young and old. The TheraTogs “movement” is experiencing great success in making significant advances for patients in movement patterns, posture, stability and corrected muscular recruitment throughout their daily activities.
