Client with Incomplete Paraplegia (Lumbar Injury) Adaptive Exercise session
Goal of this session was to reduce rigidity of the Clients ankles by allowing for increases in dorsiflexion to bring awareness to her feet and ankle position and muscle activation.
The harness the client is wearing is providing 40 lbs of resistance downward, simulating a squat. The machine in front of the client is providing 20-30 lbs of resistance to pull the client forward to force them into dorsiflexion.
The client is also performing the movement with a 1 inch wedge under their toes to again force dorsiflexion with will, in turn, bring about a greater awareness of ankle/foot position and the muscles required to bring them back to neutral body position.
