Modern technology has made it easier for the individual who is reluctant or unable to exercise. The physical therapy specialists at Pro Performance are happy to introduce a welcomed addition to their New York physical therapy facility, called the Exer-Rest.
The Exer-Rest is a platform that has the appearance of a twin bed with a memory foam mattress. It is motorized and moves the patient repetitively from head to foot. It is designed to provide increased local circulation and short-term relief of minor aches and pains. Patients may also experience local muscle relaxation.
The Exer-Rest is considered a medical device that moves back and forth at about 140 times per minute within a 30 to 45 minute session. Pro Performance physical therapy specialists administer daily treatments for maximum symptomatic relief. The Exer-Rest is a non-invasive, drug-free device, known to produce Whole Body Periodic Acceleration (WBPA) and is an alternative for the patient who is unwilling to exercise.
Physical rehabilitation centers like Pro Performance, have the treatment advantage by utilizing this equipment as a more efficient way for the body to naturally release mediators that are vital for the adjusting of blood vessels. It allows for better blood flow to the organs and suppresses inflammation. Those who have been treated with the Exer-Rest have experienced improved circulatory health.
Our in home physical therapy programs are especially suited for the Exer-Rest. Patients who are immobile due to chronic disorders, injury or lifestyle choices, can benefit from the pulsating movement that the Exer-Rest provides to the natural body pulse. Our programs help the body recover from illness and injury.
