Our Approach

Our Team will treat people with traumatic and non- traumatic spinal cord injuries. The spinal cord rehabilitation Program offers state of the art technology and many specialty services including:

  • Occupational Therapy
  • Physiotherapy
  • Spasticity management
  • Upper extremity functional restoration
  • Wheelchair and seating clinic
  • Locomotor training
  • Diaphragm pacing

Our patients:

Many patients have experienced a traumatic injury as the result of a motor vehicle accident, fall, sport-related injury. Spinal cord injury is the result of a tumor, infection, cervical stenosis, surgery or non-traumatic causes.

For patients presenting with a dual diagnosis including spinal cord injury and traumatic brain injury, a highly specialized program to treat multiple physical, functional and cognitive challenges will be provided.

Treatment, Research and Technology

  • Body weight supported treadmill training (BSWT) to improve gait performance
  • Electrical stimulation to reduce muscle atrophy and improve cardiovascular function
  • Hydrotherapy
  • Acupuncture
  • Technology
  • based environmental control units to increase functional independence
  • Robotic therapies to enhance motor function
  • Advanced wheelchair seating, pressure mapping and mobility options
  • Pharmacologic interventions for spasticity

Outcomes

Following programs by Medical Park, 30 years of experience, JCI, in compliance with regulatory body dept. of health, ACI national guidelines and the Australian guidelines. These programs are time tested with partner, tailor made to suit local needs.

Studies show that patients treated at an acute rehabilitation hospital achieve better outcomes than those in other care settings. We will achieve in time a greater improvement during their stay and a higher level of functional independence upon discharge, based on with national benchmarks that measure criteria such as locomotion, cognitive ability and activities of daily living
