The Thera Plex Unit is a scientifically developed, well researched, thoroughly tested, variable speed, passive exercise unit. It is designed for professional medical purposes, to be placed in such locations as hospitals and/or health related care facilities. It also performs successfully in an institutional environment, as well as the corporate or home areas. When the unit is operated under proper direction or with some training, the benefits are profound.

The Thera Plex Unit is capable of moving all joints through their complete range of motion at any desired speed and frequency of repetition. This system has the unique ability to move each joint individually, move groups of joints together, and/or all joints simultaneously. This is accomplished solely by the unit and eliminates the necessity of the one-on-one treatment modality of classic physical therapy. This characteristic of the Thera Plex Unit allows for a reduction of personnel, which, in turn, reduces the cost to the patient. Each patient is individually evaluated to determine their capabilities and the unit is then adjusted to the client’s tolerance. The actual movement is performed by the unit to the specifications set by the therapist. This therapy creates such relaxation that many individuals are able to sleep during their treatment.

This passive exercise program has been found by numerous studies, conducted over the last twenty years, to be significantly remedial for those with muscle-debilitating conditions. By passively moving all muscle groups, the Thera Plex Unit causes a patient’s remaining muscle to act as an auxiliary muscle pump (such as occurs in healthy and mobile people). All of this is accomplished without causing the weakened muscle to perform any work. Passive motion improves the sluggish circulation characteristically found in sedentary people, such as stroke patients. The benefits of this passive exercise program include stress reduction, tension relief, good feeling reactions, cardiovascular conditioning with favorable pulse and blood pressure changes, and a mild diuretic effect. The Thera Plex Unit also improves the altered gastrointestinal mobility of the sedentary patient, which, in turn, leads to better bowel function. Significant improvements in anxiety, mood, depressive reactions and sleep patterns are frequently observed. In addition, blood samples show positive changes in high density lipid blood levels; comparable to those of well conditioned athletes. In other words, one sees specific, as well as general, improvements in bodily functions.

When all its capabilities are considered, the Thera Plex Unit is like a ray of sunlight on a cloudy day to those individuals with muscle debilitating conditions. If all this sounds too good to be true, we offer you the opportunity to evaluate the Thera Plex Unit yourself. We invite you to come and enjoy a complimentary treatment. It will then be possible for you to evaluate what the Thera Plex Unit is capable of doing. As your muscles and joints benefit from this, you too will become a believer in the Thera Plex Unit, just as thousands before you have.
