Patient Highlight
Derek: Core Strengthening and Trunk Control Rehabilitation
Derek is a patient with an Incomplete Spinal Cord Injury who needed rehabilitation to improve strength in his weaker arm, increase core/trunk stability, sit unassisted, and address generalized muscle weakness.
Derek has way better core/trunk control, and movement than he had before, as well as an increase in his sitting tolerance and faster reaction time.
