0:00:04 | locomotive training the therapy that we're doing here has it has its roots of basic |
---|
0:00:08 | science |
---|
0:00:09 | there was some scientists who wanted to understand if the spinal cord contributes to the |
---|
0:00:15 | control walking so we all think that after spinal cord injury the reason people can't |
---|
0:00:20 | walk is there's a disconnect between the brain |
---|
0:00:24 | the nerve signals the go down the spinal cord to the muscles "'cause" that's been |
---|
0:00:27 | injured an interrupted and we all know after spinal cord injury people don't walk |
---|
0:00:32 | so our assumption was that the spinal cord is just the telephone cable just the |
---|
0:00:37 | conduit for information |
---|
0:00:38 | what turns out the spinal cord is really |
---|
0:00:42 | smart |
---|
0:00:44 | and it's almost in it may be smart as the brain so the brain gets |
---|
0:00:48 | information it listens to it reads it responds and integrates it generates an output |
---|
0:00:54 | spinal cord can do the same thing and that's what the researchers found out when |
---|
0:00:59 | they found that out they said |
---|
0:01:02 | i wonder if anybody can use this information in rehabilitating people with spinal cord injuries |
---|
0:01:08 | and the answers yes right emily to face rehab because i was looking for something |
---|
0:01:12 | outside what we were currently doing with physical therapy in occupational therapy i did research |
---|
0:01:19 | found it on internet actually subscribe to the re foundation and a set me a |
---|
0:01:24 | eight handbook |
---|
0:01:25 | and that's right part of doctor arc light and |
---|
0:01:28 | and active airmen so i called we've got here in january and let three and |
---|
0:01:34 | half months we can hear family has had exceptional care and has made remarkable strides |
---|
0:01:41 | so through a long series of events researchers here is the global and really in |
---|
0:01:47 | other parts of the world have developed this therapy it's predominantly been provided to adults |
---|
0:01:54 | well several years ago we decided to do a study and happen to enroll a |
---|
0:01:58 | child and had some |
---|
0:02:01 | for nominal remarkable |
---|
0:02:04 | results a child that had not blocked and sixteen months after an injury began to |
---|
0:02:09 | take steps only after thirty sessions of look more train one mother said my child |
---|
0:02:14 | was like a noodle when i came in here in a concert on its own |
---|
0:02:17 | allen is again |
---|
0:02:19 | the things that i've seen cape induce and we've been here are tremendously before we |
---|
0:02:25 | got here in his wheelchair he had to wear strap any ad aware brace on |
---|
0:02:29 | each of you wasn't able to hold up and real at the same time without |
---|
0:02:33 | falling over |
---|
0:02:34 | and since he's been here from control the so strong that he's able to go |
---|
0:02:38 | without a brace without a strap because across this chance it's a slow process but |
---|
0:02:43 | everything that and happening at like all the sudden another miraculous things happen here in |
---|
0:02:48 | a word with the body of what you have and they |
---|
0:02:52 | a body is not to stay and motion so the using the chat the melody |
---|
0:02:56 | of the ground |
---|
0:02:57 | and i completely when a thing |
---|
0:03:01 | what happens in here |
