So basically, the neuron broke, tore off, seived. Then the strip off of electric current acted as a conductor from the bottom neuron to the top neuron. ( Thus , hopefully in time , regrowth) Hmm..can we, take this and add some tissue in there to cultivate the "fibre optic" linked 🤔 ..or will we finally get a processor and software bio-code to allow smooth movement. ( The body does have 11110000 10101 one's and zeros moving through it already. ) If one were to stick the conductive strip, from the veins in the neck to the lower limbs, will motion be better? ( As we completing the circuit ) I'm sure in the near future, 5years, we'll get there. The solution can be a second brain( device) operated with a walk switch. The brain will continue to control the upper body...while the device will just be programmed to get the legs walking. It's just sending many electric impulses to make many micro movements, that's all.

Something similar to this helped my son born with Spina Bifida to walk without crutches. We used Theraputic Electric Stimulation (TES) when he was 5 years old. This was mild electric pulses delivered using patches on his hips and upper and lower legs. He wore these every night, alternating sides. This strengthened his muscles, and created calf muscle he never had before. From there, he could learn to walk. Music helps the brain coordinate movements more smoothly. This took about 4 years. This did not hurt him. We adjusted it nightly so it felt like a very tiny tickle. It actually helped him to sleep better. We would use this method more, but the program lost funding, and it was difficult to modify the equipment for adults. He's 28 now and still walks every day, including at work and does stairs daily, although he uses a wheelchair for longer distances. This should be available to everyone who needs it. There are many other applications for it, too. I think it might work with an externally applied, removable patch along the spinal cord.

CHANAKYA SINHA This was a long time ago. I remember the equipment came from a research project being done by a female Doctor in Canada for children with Cerebral palsy. We received treatment at St. Michael's Hospital, in Milwaukee, which is gone now. Children's Hospital in Milwaukee might know a little about it. The Nurse was Karen Rowan. It was similar to a TENS unit. It was a small, flat device with smooth edges that ran on 9 volt batteries. There was a small screen to see the level of electricity. It had a way to adjust the voltage in small increments until the child could just barely feel it. If a muscle twitched or jumped it was too strong. There was an automatic shut-off that would prevent it from delivering a spark or jolt if a lead came loose. It also had a maximum voltage that was preset so as not to cause a burn to insensate skin. There were two leads for each targeted muscle. Four leads per TES unit. We used two TES units. One delivered electricity to his hip area, and waist, and the other his calf, and thigh. He had a hip that was close to being dislocated. We think this strengthened his hip enough to prevent dislocation. The wires were thin, and fit into rectangular black conductive pads that had a sticky gel on one side. The pads were reusable, and remained damp. We replaced the pads monthly. The leads lasted a year. We had to gently wash his skin to remove oils that would prevent the pads from staying on through the night. We put him in a one piece pajama that covered the patches. The TES units went into a soft fanny pack around his waist. The patches were harder to place as he got older and had hair growth on his legs that needed to be shaved off first or it hurt to remove them. I removed them by spraying warm water from a spray bottle onto one edge, and slowly pulled off the patch with the gel still attached to it so it could be used again. One night, we applied this treatment to one side of his body. The next night it was the other side. They were used for 8 hours per night. With one night completely off per week. We went to see the nurse at regular intervals, like every few months, to make sure we were doing it right. I tried to replace the leads with ones I made myself from Radio Shack, which is also gone now. But the brass fittings were too large to be comfortable during sleep. At the time, this cost us thousands of dollars. Now I think it could be done much cheaper. We used a specially trained Occupational Therapist to help with this.

CHANAKYA SINHA I wish you luck. I hope you can recreate this amazing treatment. I wonder if there is a patent. I hope this could be something covered by insurance. Or perhaps it could be able to be done by people as an alternative treatment, if it could be carefully described and sourced and used correctly. It has an interesting history as a treatment in the past. As I recall, it was called the wet cell battery technique. I read about it in an alternative historical book, and it was the only time I had read anything about treating Spina Bifida anywhere before that, except in a Medical School library, and that book, the only book, on it at the time, recommended euthanization of the infants.

It was a motion stimulator that imitates the leg force load from a human gait, so that the locomotion center could be reverse trained, so the nerve path is kept alive and later stimulation with electrodes could be done. Now 17 years later this is starting to take place, feels so cool to have been able to take part in something, that interesting.

My best friend had experimental spinal cord surgery in 2000. In Ecuador 17 days $25,000 total cost. They removed the nerves from the knee to the ankle and sowed them into the spinal cord with some stomach tissue around for faster healing and 10 hours in a hyperbaric chamber one hour per day. They connected the circuit by using to pressure points in the feet. Hours after the surgery his therapist was able to make his foot jump by pressing the pressure points. He was paralyzed at the top of his chest and now has movement on the left side of his abdomen all the way to his hip. He can feel his bladder now too which is the best part. With special boots and a walker my friend was able to walk back in 2000, if you can call it walking but I'd say it's a start. But in all the advances there is always a hitch or a niche that you have to do and no one has really made any more headway since my friend had his surgery. Just different types. I stood at the head of the operating table for 2 hours and watched part of the surgery, it was pretty amazing. The best advice I could give any paraplegic is just keep your legs moving daily and stretching. You can build a sit down bicycle with an electric motor that will move your legs for you, to keep your blood flowing. That's important.

I know about an old therapy that already knew this....it,s called Feldenkreiss...Feldenkreis was paralised and learned himself walking again...to somehow reroute the nervesystem... Nice to see that this system works quicker and make somebody walk again 😊

This is exciting. I worked with pt. With paralysis, stroke and all kinds of Neurological disease. With stroke we sometimes use NMES for gait training.

They should use a mechanical exoskeleton in addition to the electrical stimulation so that they have support while walking or moving.

They should try using this on as recent of paralysis patients as possible since their spinal cords would probably retain more memory of walk and their muscles would probably be stronger as well.
