Functional electrical stimulation (FES) is a therapy method where nerves are stimulated with electrical current via surface electrodes in order to cause muscular contraction. The aim is to produce a functional movement for impaired extremities. With RehaMove, specific movement sequences can be generated - for example during cycling, gait training, stabilization exercises or for foot dorsiflexion.

Active movement is a prerequisite for health and wellbeing. The MOTOmed movement trainer can be combined with RehaMove. RehaMove stimulates the muscles so that legs and/or arms move with their own strength. This turns passive movement into active movement training.
With sequence training, applications from 1-channel hand extension to 8-channel gait training are possible. Standardized application templates allow to stimulate movement sequences extremily fast and without further efforts. Each sequence training can be adapted with individual adjustable stimulation and pause times. The stimulation can be triggered automatically or manually. The manual starting and stopping of stimulation sequences can be done directly via the stimulator or via a manual switch - external trigger. One focus of this application is gait training: for hemiplegic people, the paralyzed leg can be supported and strength deficits are compensatedwith the support of the external trigger. People with incomplete paraplegia can be mobilized more effectively and prepared for gait training.
