Parkinson’s Disease
Creating therapies to restore movement, function, and independence.
Discover our Therapy
ARC Therapy is targeted, programmed stimulation of the spinal cord designed to restore movement, function, and independence after spinal cord injury (SCI).
In addition to restoring movement after SCI, ARC Therapy has the potential to help those living with Parkinson’s disease address movement challenges, such as freezing of gait. We also plan to investigate the potential for ARC Therapy to help people who have suffered a stroke.
“I turn on the stimulation in the morning and turn it off in the evening. It allows me to walk better, to stabilize myself. Every Sunday I go to the lake, and I walk about six kilometers. It’s awesome.”
