Standing Frame for Spinal Cord Injury

STANDING FRAME FOR SPINAL CORD INJURY
I stand every day in my easy stand standing frame mostly because it helps with spasticity by calming down my spasms but there are also other health benefits to getting out of my wheelchair and standing upright.
In this video I show you a stand in my easystand standing frame and the show the impact it has on my spasms.
I love the effect so much that I try and stand twice a day.
If you are interested in checking out how else I manage my spasticity watch this playlist.

God Bless you for this video. I have an L2 injury and am in pain all day. I was just looking for a standing frame. I love your positive energy. This was a very informative video. Thank you

[@EmQuattrocchi]

Thank you! Glad the video could help you 😊 I hope you find something that works to ease your pain a bit soon!

[@monique4353]

You look great in those braids; the ones on the side are hard to do...good job on whoever did them.

[@EmQuattrocchi]

My friend did them for me, she’s really good at it! I keep practising in the hopes I’ll be able to do it one day, but I’m struggling 😆

[@morgancalvi6675]

@@EmQuattrocchi I can do the single one down my back...but not the ones on the sides for some reason. Since my neck is so mssed up and sore, and I have no real hand function, I also get someone else to do them for me.

[@EmQuattrocchi]

You do well to do the single one, I struggle with that too! I struggle with the holding my arms up and using the core to keep me upright. So I am taking a break from trying 😆 but I’ll go back to trying soon hopefully!

[@debellis9889]

Another really informative video Em.... I’m learning so much about living with a spinal injury. The standing frame looks awesome and so cool how it fully supports you. So great how it provides you with relief from pasta and risottos antics 😂🤣

[@EmQuattrocchi]

Haha I know! It helps calm them down so much! I love it ❤️

[@fenitvonumbra4905]

Very interesting! Sometimes it is hard to understand you, because the music is to loud and busy... love your editing and camera work ♥️

[@EmQuattrocchi]

Oh sorry about that! I’ll keep that in mind and make sure it’s no too loud next time! Thank you so much for telling me 😁

[@VanLifeVoyages]

Nice work. I changed to a "standing" wheelchair. The biggest advantage for me was to be standing and mobile in the wheelchair. #NeverQuit ❤

[@EmQuattrocchi]

I want to get a standing wheelchair one day! They are awesome 😊

[@VanLifeVoyages]

It doesn't do well in the dirt. We camp alot in our accessible camper van. So I am still trying to figure out an easier way to do that. 👍

[@EmQuattrocchi]

Oh that’s annoying, I hope you figure out how to improve it 😊

[@markhottman2652]

Keep at it. I’m back on my feet, T-4 incomplete.

[@EmQuattrocchi]

Oh that’s awesome! 😁 Would you mind me asking what would be your best piece of advice? 😊

[@markhottman2652]

Nu Step, three wheel recumbent bike, loft strand crutches, NEVER EVER GIVE UP!

[@EmQuattrocchi]

Thankyou!!! 😁

[@jamesmacoy1021]

That’s cool yours is electric, mine I had to do it manual.

[@EmQuattrocchi]

Yeah I love it! Makes it so much easier to get up. I needed it because with my spasms it was too hard to do it manually.

Hello Ma'am...This is Joseph David Raj*, aged 37 years had been working as TEACHER in a Private School.. Unfortunately, I met with a road accident in KURNOOL on September 11, 2017 which resulted in Multiple Fractures and damage. As a result, my spinal cord has got damaged (D2 - D7level) and I have been spending a bedridden life for the past FOUR YEARS...I don't have that much of money to buy Standing Frame...Pls suggest me what to do...😔plssss 🙏🙏🙏😔

[@EmQuattrocchi]

If you can’t afford one, I suggest doing other helpful things you can afford like stretching everyday or you could even have your friends help hold you up in standing.

[@sawboey1944]

Im interested In your standing frame machine...may i know how to get it?thx

[@EmQuattrocchi]

The best way would be talk to your physio therapist or OT or someone that’s helping with your therapy 😊

[@yo9704]

Really wish there could be a cure for paralysis

[@EmQuattrocchi]

Hopefully one day 🤞

[@holyrolly]

What type of standing frame do you have?

[@holyrolly]

You mentioned easystand but not the model and what was the price if you don’t mind me asking. Thanks

[@EmQuattrocchi]

Sorry for delayed response! I have actually been in hospital and not home so couldn’t check because I didn’t remember. It’s the easy stand EVOLV with a few added customisations to it 😊 As for the price I’m not sure sorry, because my insurance paid for it not me.
