Elkhorn Valley First in Wyoming to Offer Bioness Program

Elkhorn Valley Rehabilitation Hospital in Casper is the first hospital in the state to offer a new suite of services to neurological patients for both inpatient and outpatient treatment.

The Bioness program enables stroke and other neurological patients to regain lost mobility and achieve greater independence with treatment options that include its hand rehabilitation system and its foot drop system.

The innovative functional electrical stimulation (FES) systems help patients recovering from stroke, traumatic brain injury, multiple sclerosis, cerebral palsy and incomplete spinal cord injury to regain muscle control, giving them more function and more freedom.

The NESS H200 Hand Rehabilitation System has been shown to return hand function in patients at the acute phase of recovering following stroke and brain injury, as well as in select patients whose injuries are years old.

The NESS L300 Foot Drop System is the first wireless FES system.  The low profile, lightweight system uses advanced technology to allow patients to achieve a more normalized gait on changing terrains and at varying speeds.
