GyroStim
Breakthrough technology. Breakthrough treatment. Breakthrough outcomes.
What is GyroStim?
That depends on who's asking...
For patients: GyroStim therapy is the most effective road to recovery. It is a breakthrough medical device that helps the brain heal itself from within - without drugs and without surgery. It is a beacon of hope for patients with conditions such as concussion and TBI, cerebral palsy, autism spectrum disorder, MS, Parkinson's, Down syndrome, and age-related vestibular dysfunction that benefit from motion-induced vestibular stimulation.
For athletes: GyroStim is the ultimate athletic performance training device. It is the most advanced, efficient, and effective means for improving the core of athleticism - the sensorimotor system.
For clinicians: GyroStim is a highly effective therapeutic medical device for administering quantifiable intensities, or 'doses', of motion-induced therapeutic stimulation.
Uniquely capable of providing data-driven therapeutic treatment, GyroStim offers therapy that is far more powerful, precise, replicable, and effective than manually administered physical therapy.
It is a prestigious differentiator for clinics wanting to rise above and be a standout in the competitive healthcare market. When looking back, many clinician/owners realize GyroStim was the single most pivotal investment they ever made into the health of their patients - and into the financial health of their clinic's bottom line.
Okay, but what is GyroStim?
GyroStim is a highly specialized, computer-controlled, electromechanical, multi-axis rotational chair. Essentially, it is a powerful and precise robotic medical device uniquely capable of harnessing and administering highly effective therapeutic doses of motion-induced vestibular stimulation - a feat that is virtually impossible without the technological advantages of GyroStim.

How does it work?
GyroStim works by moving your entire body through space, generating controlled doses of gentle yet powerful motion-induced therapeutic stimulation throughout the sensorimotor system. The stimulation is highly effective for treating a wide range of vestibular dysfunction symptoms resulting from concussion, TBI, advanced age, and various neurological conditions.
Why is it effective?
GyroStim therapy is effective because it gets right to the source of the problem: the functional performance of the human sensorimotor system. It provides repetitious motion-induce stimulation to multiple functional processes throughout the sensorimotor system, promoting neuroplasticity, and helping the brain heal itself.
According to NASA:
"The sensorimotor system is a network that includes the sensory organs (eyes, ears, skin), parts of the nervous system, and the body's motor controls. It governs the human body's ability to perceive and respond to the external environment, as well as its ability to move and other functional activities."
The human sensorimotor system enables you to interact with the world around you, and the vestibular system is a major contributor to the functional performance of the sensorimotor system.
Concussion, TBI, advanced age, illness, and other neurological conditions often cause vestibular dysfunction which disrupts the functional performance of the sensorimotor system. When this happens, interacting with the world becomes fraught with debilitating symptoms such as dizziness and motion sensitivity, headache, nausea, brain fog, depression, sleep disorders, sensitivity to light and sound, and many other symptoms that may be easily triggered, come and go, or persist indefinitely.
Clinicians and patients consistently report that GyroStim provides life-changing reduction, and in many cases, a complete elimination of persistent symptoms when all other treatment options have failed.
Pharmaceuticals can help temporarily mask symptoms, but they can also induce undesirable side effects - and drugs don't actually 'fix' the source of the symptoms. Rehabilitation of symptoms from vestibular dysfunction typically involves manually administered physical therapy (PT) strategies that target dysfunction, however, manually administered PT has physical limitations, is inefficient, and can only go so far. In many cases, recovery can take months, or years, and some patients never fully recover with manually administered PT.
GyroStim's powerful automation and computer-controlled therapeutic profiles overcome the inherent limitations of manually administered PT. Its therapeutic treatment is clinically proven to efficiently and effectively rehabilitate the source of the symptoms. The device can administer multiple types of therapeutic stimulation, simultaneously, helping to synchronize, coordinate, and improve the complex interactions occurring throughout the sensorimotor system.
Clinical data indicates rehabilitation with GyroStim is up to 5 times more effective than manual PT therapy alone.
GyroStim therapy is data-driven, highly efficient, and effective. It is safe, comfortable, and accessible to practically everyone, including patients with severe physical limitations or neurological conditions. Simply put, GyroStim provides therapy that is more efficient, more accessible, and more effective than can be achieved by any other means, resulting in faster recoveries and improved quality of life.
