On a neurological level, your body is constantly interpreting and processing sensory information from your surroundings and movement to create and regulate an appropriate response from muscles and joints. Injury, disease and aging disrupt the fluid connection between your brain and your movement. The WAV is a sensory based exercise bar designed to strengthen the brain body connection for improved balance and postural and stability control.

 
The WAV closes the chain for client proprioceptive and kinesthetic feedback, you can’t get that from bars and balls.

Multi-sensory Training HEIGHTENS PRoprioception

The WAV Sensorimotor Trainer is unlike any other equipment. The tranquil sights and sounds of fluid moving inside the WAV in response to your clients movement patterns provide extensive sensory engagement. Clients gain a heightened sense of proprioception while they, and you, gain a refined understanding of where there is imbalance or weakness.

We use the WAV with so many different patients, from geriatric to concussions. It allows for creative and imaginative ways to deliver what my patients need.
— Dr. Jodi G. Handler, PT, DPT, Co-Owner TLC Rehab and Wellness & Clinical Assistant Faculty Rutgers University, PT Program

Beneficial for various therapeutic focus areas ~ orthopedic, neurologic, geriatric, vestibular, athletic training ~ WAV training activates the neuromuscular system without compromising the stable ground conditions we move on every day. Regardless of pathology, sensorimotor training is supportive overall for neuroplasticity and to upregulate other systems like hearing and feeling.

ENGAGE CLIENTS WITH A PERSONALIZED SENSORY EXPERIENCE

Getting clients to fully engage can be a challenge and lack of engagement leads to lack of compliance and missed appointments. The WAV triggers your clients’ sense of curiosity and creates an interesting and fun way for them to engage in their rehab exercises. The first time they hold the WAV, and feel the sensation of the liquid moving in response to their body position, will be unlike anything they’ve ever felt before. Uniquely reflective of each user’s movement patterns, the WAV provides personalized feedback and insights to help them (re)gain healthy functional movement.

 
I can cue my patients, sometimes til I am blue in the face and they don’t get it. With the WAV they get it right away. After trying it on my 3rd patient I knew that I needed to have it for my practice.

Movement STarts with the Mind

You already have many options for therapeutic exercise but are they as effective as they could be? WAV training incorporates brain body exercises that help activate and restructure the connections that serve as the foundation for the way your clients move, stabilize, and carry themselves through life.

Sensorimotor training improves balance, equilibrium, posture, muscle balance and strength better than strength training alone.
