Project 3: FES-Bike

Enhancing lower limb recovery with neuromodulation and exercise

Spinal cord injuries can impair lower limb function, leading to loss of sensory and motor abilities. While physical rehabilitation remains the standard treatment, combining approaches may enhance recovery.

This project evaluates activity-based therapy combined with functional electrical stimulation (FES), a technique that activates muscles through electrical impulses to help restore movement. It also compares the effects of this combined approach with those of conventional cycling exercises.
