Mostly, the spinal injury requires physical therapy and rehabilitation. Neuroxcel is the only facility in Florida to offer robotic-assisted gait training and functional movement exercises to regain your strength and walk again, without any pain.

1. Spinal Cord Injury Recovery
A spinal cord injury is caused by a trauma and its recovery needs to be taken seriously.
Depending on where the spinal cord and nerve roots are damaged, this injury can be
painful or it can provoke paralysis and even incontinence. Mostly, the spinal injury requires
physical therapy and rehabilitation. Neuroxcel is the only facility in Florida to offer
robotic­assisted gait training and functional movement exercises to regain your strength
and walk again, without any pain.
The program that the specialists offer here is innovative and it has already proved the best
results for injuries of this kind. The conventional treatment is less effective and sometime
the patient doesn’t fully recover from such trauma.
This is why, the Neuroxcel facility offer a program for people to regain their strength in their
bodies so they can be ready for a possible cure.
The program that Neuroxcel offer to rehabilitate the patients is called C.A.S.T. With this
program, the spinal cord injury is likely to be treated entirely.
C.A.S.T. works in four areas to improve the chance of healing. First area represents the
intensive care and work for the three primary muscle groups of the body, upper, core and
lower extremity, so that the muscles are kept toned and flexible. The second step of the
program consists in robotic and manual gait training for your back training. Afterwards, the
patient is having repetitive muscle group workouts so that the pattern movements are
retrained and the neural plasticity is facilitated. The last step of the program is
strengthening the core, offering flexibility and maximum personal independence.

2. While the traditional rehabilitation facilities offer a lot of limitations, Neuroxcel is the one
facility that is specialized in functional movement training that focuses on building strength,
flexibility and independence by removing all those limitations one at a time.
The first care of people with a spinal cord injury should be the enhanced care for their
bodies and the prevention of muscle and bone atrophy and other changes that are
necessary to restore function. People need to train with disciplined exercises that can keep
their muscles and bones flexible, to care for their skin, bladder and intestines. Also, people
should avoid medical procedures that can cause irreversible loss of peripheral nerve and
other functions. It is very important that people do not neglect their brain, the most important
part of their body.
The patients that are accepted into the program must commit to at least three months of
intensive training in the C.A.S.T. This makes possible that the muscles are intensively
worked. Exercising is a difficult thing for people who are paralyzed and special equipment
can be used to make muscle exercises. If people would do exercises for a month or two
every year, then they should be trained effectively in an intensive training. During the rest of
the year, they can keep what they have gained by dedicating one or two hours a day to do
exercises. Although there have been few formal studies on the subject, many people have
reported a significant increase in the circumference of their legs when they used functional
electrical stimulation regularly. It also improves cardiovascular function and stimulation can
reduce spasticity.
Neuroxcel offers hope for people with stroke, spinal cord injury, or traumatic brain injury to
regain strength and independence through recovery and rehabilitation. Neuroxcel’s
