Spinal Cord Injury rehabilitation

Spinal Cord Injury Therapy That Begins with Movement

Whether you’re adjusting to life with a new spinal cord injury or rebuilding strength years later, our team of physiotherapists and exercise physiologists at RoboFit provide evidence-based therapy tailored to your level of function and recovery goals.

Therapy Programs for Spinal Cord Injury

We offer personalised therapy programs for people with paraplegia, quadriplegia, complete or incomplete spinal cord injuries. Your therapy plan with one of our physiotherapists or exercise physiologists may include:

  • Skill development for activities of daily living
  • Neuromuscular re-education and spasticity management
  • Upper and lower limb strength and flexibility
  • Sitting balance, trunk control and posture support
  • Wheelchair skills and transfer practice
  • Fatigue management and cardiovascular fitness
  • Pressure care education and self-management strategies

Personalised Therapy Programs

We know that recovery doesn’t stop after discharge. RoboFit supports both new and chronic SCI clients across all stages of life. We collaborate with you and your care network — including family, support workers, and case managers — to track outcomes, adjust programs, and keep your goals central.

Our team is focused on our 1% Wins Philosophy. You can read more about it here.

HOW does a personalised program help you

At RoboFit, we believe in the power of small, consistent gains. In neurological rehabilitation, breakthroughs aren’t always dramatic; they are often built through marginal gains made over time. That is the essence of our 1% Wins Philosophy.

Whether it is one extra step, one more rep, one improved connection, or one moment of regained independence — every 1% counts.

Physiotherapy for spinal cord injury

Physiotherapy plays a vital role in spinal cord injury rehabilitation — helping restore movement, improve independence, and reduce complications over time. At RoboFit, our neuro-trained physiotherapists provide structured, individualised therapy that evolves with you, whether you’re weeks or years post-injury.

Our SCI physiotherapy programs are tailored to support:

  • Strength and motor control in affected limbs
  • Spasticity and tone management through guided movement
  • Joint mobility and flexibility for everyday function
  • Sitting balance, trunk stability, and postural control
  • Pressure relief training and manual handling strategies
  • Safe transfers, wheelchair mobility, and assistive technology use

Whether you’re living with paraplegia, quadriplegia, or an incomplete injury, our goal is to help you move with more control, confidence, and comfort.

Each plan is built in collaboration with you and your care team — aligned with your personal goals and clinical needs.
