JPM Physical Therapy PC at Elmhurst at 91-31 Queens Blvd, #511 our team can customizes treatment programs for patients with traumatic brain injuries, balance, gait issues and other neurological conditions.

Our innovative equipment allows patients to practice all types of gait and balance activities while being comfortably supported in a safety harness. This allows both the therapist and patient to confidently practice challenging and task-specific activities that can lead to faster progress in therapy.

Our equipment and treatment plans for anyone with gait or balance problems including those with Parkinson’s disease, stroke, multiple sclerosis, traumatic brain injury, vestibular problems, peripheral neuropathy, spinal cord injury and others.

Benefits of Harness Supported Activities:

• Ability to practice high level walking and balance skills without the risk of injury.
• Reduce fear and anxiety while performing challenging activities.
• Begin aggressive gait and balance training earlier in the rehabilitation process.
• Facilitate safe but intensive group-based activities.
• Reduce pain by providing body-weight support as needed to prevent excessive weight bearing on injured or painful lower extremities.
• Practice difficult activities such as curbs, stairs and ramps while safely supported.
• Allows for more independent practice opportunities.
