How Can ARMM Help As A Therapists Tool?

The ARMM is a physiotherapy tool that can help patients with their rehabilitation. It is an excellent way to increase mobility by allowing the patient to walk more independently and in a safer manner. By having the wheelchair attached, therapists can increase their frequency of patient visitations since they may not have to rely on a second therapist or assistant to follow them with the wheelchair when practicing ambulation training. In addition with the drop down legs patients can complete exercises such as squats, heel & toe raises, sit-to-stand, marching on the spot and many more, all while using the upper bars for support and safety.

Occupational therapists can use the ARMM device for patient transfers and as a support system for completing tasks of daily living. For example with the drop down legs a patient can transfer to surfaces such as counters, sinks, tables and many others all while using the ARMM and having it be both a lateral and posterior support system to offer balance and security that the wheelchair is always behind them.

Research has shown that patients suffering from a variety of disabilities from an injury, disease or illness all benefit from use of the ARMM device, it is an innovative piece of equipment that can be used in rehabilitation programs to help patients improve their mobility and gain the independence they once had.
