Spinal Cord Injury and Stroke Recovery Treatment Program
Neuroxcel® Corporation is a Palm Beach, FL-based research and development company committed to improving the lives of individuals with a spinal cord injury (SCI) or stroke.
Neuroxcel’s® Comprehensive Activity-based Strength Training (C.A.S.T®) program is designed to help people with a variety of neurological disorders improve their lifelong health, minimize secondary complications and get the most out of any new neural links to their muscles to regain as much lost abilities as possible.
While today there is no cure for SCI, recent research in neuroscience, and surgical, drug, and rehabilitation therapies has produced very promising results. There are new ways to prevent an injury from becoming worse. Nerve cell transplantation and nerve regeneration therapies have made the repair of an injured or damaged spinal cord a very reachable goal. Spinal Cord Injury Recovery and Stroke Recovery are now being looked at by reseachers from all around the globe.
And among the most exciting developments are new Spinal Cord Injury treatments and training programs based on repetitive treadmill stepping, gait strengthening and weight bearing. Neuroxcel's® C.A.S.T® is one of the most comprehensive of these programs and has actually improved function by promoting axon regeneration and by "reminding" the spinal cord below the injury how to activate the muscles needed for standing or walking.
Filling the gap in spinal cord injury recovery treatment
Often patients care is based on compensatory strategies and the training provided is to get the patient and family members taught to care for the patient after discharge from the hospital in the fastest manner possible. For example, traditional acute therapy programs help patients become as independent “as possible” before insurance or funding runs out. Many patients with a high spinal cord injury are discharged within weeks of their injury.
Neurological injuries and disorders take time to attain maximum function and regain lost abilities. In traditional outpatient physical therapy programs, facilities often based services on the patient’s insurance benefits. Due to the slow return on treatment for neurological disorders and injuries, outpatient therapy programs are often pushed by insurance companies to terminate services because funding will not be provided for slow gains in progress.
Available insurance benefits, however, have no correlation to a patient’s ability to improve. As insurance and medical benefits become exhausted, many outpatient therapists are referring their patients to training facilities like Neuroxcel® that offer comprehensive, activity-based strength training with state-of-the-art gait strengthening equipment and modalities.
Neuroxcel® offers independence for individuals with spinal cord injury(SCI)
Neuroxcel®, based in North Palm Beach in South Florida fills the gap that is missing for these individuals in their road to functionality, independence and recovery of lost abilities. Like the scientific community, Neuroxcel® believes that there is a very real possibility that a full cure for spinal cord injury and mobility disorders can be found within our lifetime. Because of this belief, Neuroxcel® is committed to building the finest network of neurological facilities for delivery of C.A.S.T® restorative training and research and development.
