Regain your Mobility!
Each year, around 15 million people suffer a stroke, with a mortality rate around 30 percent. Another third of these people suffer permanent physical disorders, which cannot be fully rehabilitated by standard therapy. Other neurological illnesses such as traumatic brain injuries, Multiple Sklerosis can cause motor malfunctions, hemiplegia or spasticity.
A prolonged period of mobility reduction not only affects the patient’s quality of life, but can also entail more serious complications such as pneumonia, thrombosis and contractures. And sometimes, standard physical therapy doesn’t offer anymore rehabilitation to help patients regain satisfying control of the hand or foot years after the stroke.
This is when recoveriX comes into play, offering a new chance of rehabilitation!
Hand- & Foot Therapy
recoveriX is an innovative and unique neurotechnology for the rehabilitation of stroke patients and patients with other neurological deficits. It helps the patient regain functions of the upper and lower extremities.
recoveriX supplements standard physical therapy with the chance for a quicker and more successful recovery. Also, when standard therapy can no longer yield any further benefit, recoveriX provides a second chance for improvements. It can be used in the acute, sub-acute, or chronic states.
The recoveriX Effect
There are multiple positive impacts of recoveriX therapy ranging from decreases in pain, spasticity, tremor, improvements of motor movements, passive joint movements, sensitivity and, interestingly enough, in gait.
Patients also report that upper and lower limbs feel warmer and sometimes, even memory, concentration and speech functions improve.
- 99.9% of patients improve spasticity in fingers and the wrist
- 99.9% of patients improve daily activities
- 99% of patients improve their gross motor functions
- 99% of patients improve their mental performance
- 95% of patients improve their fine motor skills
- 95% of patients improve their concentration
- 0% side effects
All these positive effects can be explained by the activation of both hemispheres by the recoveriX therapy.

recoveriX is a unique combination of 3 therapies
A neurological disorder might inhibit your ability to move, but maybe not your ability to imagine movement! Imagine a hand or a foot movement – the imagination triggers nearly the same activity in the brain as a real hand or foot movement. This is what exactly recoveriX uses for your therapy! With three different kinds of neurofeedback, recoveriX improves your chances for successful therapy.
Motor Imagery (MI)
Imagine a hand or a foot movement. recoveriX measures and analyses brain waves, which reflect the motor imagery and determines whether the motor imagery was correct. Once motor imagery has been recognized, virtual reality and functional electrical stimulation will be activated.
The Positive Impacts
The responsible areas of the brain are activated by the motor imagery, which can facilitate brain plasticity. Unlike conventional physiotherapy, the BCI guarantees that actual movements only occur when people imagine the corresponding movement.
The simultaneous activation of relevant cortical areas and peripheral neurons encourages Hebbian learning.
Virtual Reality (VR)
The simulation on the screen makes motor imagery visible. Patients sit in front of a screen, where they see hands and feet of an avatar. This gives patients the feeling of watching their own movements in front of a mirror. If recoveriX recognizes motor imagery of the movement (such as a right hand movement), the avatar moves the right hand.
The Positive Impacts
This real-time feedback is very easy to understand. If a patient imagines a movement, then the avatar performs the movement.
The experience is similar to watching yourself in a mirror. It can facilitate mirror neuron activation.
Electrical Stimulation (FES)
For this stimulation, two electrodes are placed (for example) on the dorsiflexors of the wrist or on the leg. If the system recognizes a correct motor imagery, the muscles get electrically stimulated, causing a real movement. This should help you re-learn how to initiate movement, and thus make movement possible again.
The Positive Impacts
The patient receives clear, user-friendly feedback through active movement. Just imagine a movement, and you can see your body move accordingly.
The patient is motivated because the experience repeatedly reminds the patient of the desired goal: being able to move again.
Early recovery in the acute phase
When patients suffer a stroke or other neurological injury, they are hospitalized. In this acute phase, rehabilitation is most relevant and determine success of the mostly long-lasting recovery process. recoveriX is easy to use and mobile and can be used already with hospitalized patients at bedside.
It's never too late for rehabilitation
Patients often lack further therapies to improve their motor functions. This is where recoveriX training offers a new chance! recoveriX trains the brain and therefore supplements standard physical therapy in the subacute or chronic phase - even decades after the stroke.
recoveriX Franchise Business Model
The recoveriX franchise concept allows hospitals, rehabilitation centers, neurologists, physical therapists, occupational therapists, neurofeedback therapists or electrotherapists who treat motor disabilities to get their competitive advantage with recoveriX neurotechnology.
You will be equipped with recoveriX neurotechnology and receive an intense training on the handling and therapy process. This allows you to become a recoveriX therapy expert and to train patients with recoveriX.
