Once the patient's balance dysfunction is identified, BalanceWear®, is fitted with sensory inputs placed into the vest to augment sensory information to the neural pathway to enhance balance."

Motion Therapeutics’ BalanceWear®, a comfortable vest, is being called a revolutionary product for people living with MS, often providing immediate control for patients with balance issues. The product is non-invasive and works by accessing what Cindy Gibson-Horn, PT, the CTO and inventor of BalanceWear® calls an alternate balance mechanism.

“Each individual with balance issues has a unique balance deficit,” explains Gibson-Horn. Once the patient’s balance dysfunction is identified, BalanceWear®, is fitted with sensory inputs placed into the vest to augment sensory information to the neural pathway to enhance balance.”

With history going back to 1898 as one of Europe's first physiotherapy clinics, Skodsborg Fysioterapi is located within what is considered one of Scandinavia's foremost health establishments, which includes a number of specialty medical clinics, a recovery hospital, a fitness center, a hotel and spa.
