MotoLife

Aim to improve the lifestyle quality, the health state and the psycho-physical wellbeing of all the people who have a physical or neurological impairment of the lower and upper limbs.

Benefits of movement therapy with the use of a motorized cycle-ergometer are widely treated in several international papers. They deal mainly with the prevention or revert of the complications which are directly linked to the lack of movement and mobility and especially with the reduction of muscle spasticity, the revert of muscle atrophy caused by immobility, the increase of specific peripheral circulation and the improvement or maintenance of the joint mobility and the slow-down of the clinical picture of neurological pathologies such as a stroke, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease, etc.

Motolife is ideal for users affected by palsy or limited mobility of the legs or arms.

It is suitable for home use or in clinics, medical Studios or at therapy centers for exercising the upper and lower limbs

Passive, Assistive, Active Training

Benefits of MotoLife

Prevent, reduce and lessen the consequences of the problems related to the loss or limit of mobility:
  •     Avoid muscle weakness
  •     Reinforce muscles as they are
  •     Reduction of pain
  •     Recovery of muscle tone
  •     Keep and improve mobility
  •     Activate or stabilize circulation
  •     Increase resistance
  •     Improve cognition and perception
  •     Improve symmetry

Passive Training

If there is no residual motorial activity for the lower limbs, MotoLife allows to perform passive pedalling movement, in which the feet and the legs are pulled by the motor at a speed previously set. For upper limbs, with no residual motorial activity, MotoLife allows to move passively the arms in a cyclic way.

Active & Assisted Training

If the user is capable of movement, the motor offers assistance to start and maintain the motion at the pre-set speed (assisted movement). If the user is capable of going over the speed of the motor and keep pedalling, MotoLife may make resistance and it can be adjusted in order to increase the work of the muscles and improve the cardiopulmonary efficiency.
