Kent: The paralyzed man regains his movement in the process of discovery

“I also regained a control of the intestine and bladder -something that was told in the hospital after my accident could never happen.

“Just knowing when you want to use the toilet is such a massive thing for your mental independence and health.

Participants took part in 120 sessions using technology – known as ARC -Ex Therapy.

All have registered significant improvements in the upper body resistance, torso control and balance, according to the research of the spine.

Tara Stewart, the research president of the spine, said: “This therapy is not a silver bullet.

“It works on the saved spinal tissue, so that the results will vary greatly and must be associated with an adequate active rehabilitation over a constant period of time.

“Even so, this is a changing moment of the game. Now is the time not to talk about the injury of the spinal cord as incurable and not to tell people with this injury that nothing can be done.”

The revised peer study was published in neuromodulation: technology at the neuronal interface.
