A true physical therapy equipment, Neural Trainer allows patients to gradually recover from injuries to regain confidence in their bodies and in their physical and cognitive abilities. it can be used :
According to the limited attention capacity theory, if the simultaneous execution of a standing balance control (on one leg) and a cognitive task (Leds) occupies the attention beyond the existing capacity, there would be a deterioration in the performance of one or both tasks. This is called posture-cognition interference. In these situations, the visual-motor function compensates for the somato-sensory function.
These are particularly useful exercises for people with anterior cruciate ligament deficiency, for whom maintaining balance is more demanding.
Engaging a part of the body while occupying the mind: this is the dual-task principle. By creating this type of situation, Neural Trainer leads to an increase in neural demand, and therefore a stronger neuromuscular training.
The pure reaction time measurement is often neglected in neurocognitive evaluation.
The different sensors integrated in our light pads allow us to measure this, thanks to a set of different tests, such as speed and psychomotor coordination tests, divided attention and dual task tests.
There are 2 other types of reaction time, which Neural Trainer can work on:
It is a question of presenting a stimulus on different luminous pods located in front of the patient:
Numbers that must be arranged in ascending order by touching the pod associated with the right number, or directional arrows, or symbols.
You can also program a 2nd exercise, based on the principle of the Stroop test. The principle? Words appear in a certain color that do not correspond to the meaning.
The objective is then to see how the neurovisual sensors will manage the interference to finally decide to press the key corresponding to the color.
Neural Trainer proposes exercises based on this principle, with symbols or multidirectional arrows that must be located despite a color code that will “trap” the patient’s brain.
In a nutshell, these different exercises that can be practiced with health professionals, are meant to improve certain skills such as:
By allawing the testing of motion range, reaction speed, coordination, and proprioception in general.
