Bioness arm and hand rehabilitation helps stroke patient

[rrdiggity300]

God Bless. I am a Veteran and I had a stroke in Feb. My left hand has not recovered very much yet and I still have a dropped left foot. I am trying to get the VA to help me with both Bioness. Wish me luck.

How much does it cost?

Very inspiring! The power of self suggestion!

Very informative video.

Metriks' FCE software allows the healthcare professional to objectively quantify and report on a person's functional abilities.

What hand splints did you purchase please??

Thank you for posting this. I recently suffered a ruptured aneurysm at 22 years of age. I played cello, guitar, and bass, and hope to get back to them soon. Currently using bioness H200 around 2 hrs.day, plus rehab therapy 3x a week. What did you find most helpful in your recovery?

This is so encouraging. Our daughter had a C5-6 spinal cord injury in August 2008. She's been using the N200 for her hands with good results. Insurance turned us down, but our state's Dept. of Voc. Rehab Services paid for the units. We are so grateful, as this will make a big difference in her ability to be independent.

Rented the BioNess H200 for my daughter with a C5 incomplete spinal cord injury. The company would only allow me to rent them for 3 months at $1000/month and then took them back. They wanted me to purchase them for $6,000 each. Later they called me to tell me they had 2 rebuilt/used ones for $4,000/each. My daughter wants her hands back, so I bought them. Insurance would not pay for them.

@DFDEALER I hope you fight the insurance company! Appeal it several times and ask Bioness and your OT to help you with that! It's crazy for them to deny us the right to the best recovery we can get for the rest of our lives. Don't give up! If all else fails - see if your church or community can have a golf outing, pancake breakfast, etc. to raise money to purchase!

You are a insperation to me i was hit by a 18 wheeler several months ago and am doing rehab on my arm and leg, the truck broke my humerus bone and pelvis, pray for me, you are amazing god is amazing, god bless you:)

[kathyspencer88]

@west521 I'm sorry about your accident! I will pray for you! We are miraculously made and our brains can reroute. It takes a baby's brain 2 years to route and the last thing to come is fine motor so it makes sense our brains need at least 2 years to reroute! Perservere with patience and never give up! It's a long haul but it's worth it! If if can ever be of help - email me at Kspencer88@att,net.

Kathy,

My husband had a massive stroke at age 45 on 4/14/08. Thank you for your video. We plan on trying Bioness soon and I will look into reflexolgoy. Yes, With God, all things are possible!

how did it workout???

[pkcracker]

Our insurance considers this to be "experimental" so for now we are not pursing it any further. We are looking at Saeboflex. We may have better luck with the insurance.

[china1324]

i didn't have muchluck with saebo flex but some have i understand as usual it depends and each case different

[lablei]

Medicare is covering the leg device if the patient has an EMG test to prove the nerves are intact. You need to appeal Medicare.

[kathyspencer88]

@pkcracker good luck to you! We all need to fight our insurance companies to help us! The Bioness H200 is much more sophisticated, fits to each person and helps us do the repetitions we need for our brains to reroute!

[leondersx]

thanks I AM a stroke survivor i started bioness treat ment two weeks ago I have not seen results yet but im confident that it will work right now I just hope to makeit back to my bedroom

[wordsmith01]

What an uplifting testimony. I pray your strength in the Lord! I was diagnosed with a spinal cord tumor and a temporal brain lesion when I was nine years old. I literally just heard about the Ness L300 and H200 this past Tuesday (on the Today Show). I am looking to purchase both items if my doctors feel I am a good candidate. Peace.

[lablei]

Patients with spinal injury will find that Medicare covers these devices.

[kelleck]

Amen! Thank you for your testimony!

[AtleyJackson24]

You should take a look at the SpinoFLEX system as well.

[china1324]
