Overhead Track Harness Therapy

Overhead Track Harness Therapy

Overhead Track Harness Therapy is a specialized approach designed to enhance movement and rehabilitation through the use of a support system. This therapy involves using a harness suspended from an overhead track to support and stabilize the body while performing exercises or physical activities.

 

How Overhead Track Harness Therapy Works

 

1.Harness and Track Setup

How It Works:

In Overhead Track Harness Therapy, the patient wears a harness attached to an overhead track, allowing free movement while providing adjustable body-weight support.

Effect:

Prevents falls and injuries, giving patients confidence during movement.

Enables proper walking patterns without full weight-bearing.

 Gradually reduces support, helping patients regain mobility.


2. Adjustable Weight Support

How It Works:

Adjustable Weight Support in Overhead Track Harness Therapy allows the system to provide varying levels of body-weight assistance. This can be customized based on the patient’s needs, reducing or increasing the support as their strength and mobility improve.

Effect:

Supports patients in increasing weight-bearing over time.

Tailors support to individual rehabilitation stages.

 Encourages strength development without overstraining weakened muscles.


3. Movement Assistance

How It Works:

Movement Assistance in Overhead Track Harness Therapy provides support as patients practice walking, balance, or mobility exercises. The harness system helps guide and stabilize movements, allowing patients to focus on correct patterns without fear of falling.

Effect:

Helps patients practice controlled, coordinated movements.

Allows patients to push limits safely, knowing they won’t fall.

Facilitates repetitive movement practice, speeding up rehabilitation.
