“Life is made of small moments…”

Edurne suffered a spinal cord injury and underwent intensive physical rehabilitation using the state-of-the-art facilities at the European Centre of Neurosciences.

Congratulations to the CEN team and thank you for sharing this wonderful video.

What is the RYSEN?

The RYSEN is the next generation of 3D body weight support.

Developed by Motek, the RYSEN supports patients in an all-directional, assist as-needed capacity to improve movement function. The RYSEN offers therapists and patients the opportunity to train movement, gait and balance in an unrestricted and safe environment, both for clinical and research purposes.

Its technology combines adjustable vertical body weight support with horizontal and vertical assistive forces, maximising a patient’s freedom of movement, engagement, and recovery results.
