Patient with ALS Regains Strength and Function with Help from NeuFit's NEUBIE® Technology
Remarkable recovery story highlights the potential of neuro-based rehabilitation in motor neuron disease
AUSTIN, Texas, Sept. 11, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- When Neil, diagnosed with ALS, first tried the NEUBIE® device by NeuFit, he had lost the strength in his right hand and arm to the point that he could no longer perform everyday tasks, even twisting the cap off a bottle. Just 30 minutes into his first NEUBIE® session, Neil noticed a dramatic change: he was able to turn the bottle cap again.
"I have an update from Neurology clinics in Canada and UK which confirm that I am advancing slower than most other patients......and I identify that the ONLY thing I am doing that others are not.....is NEUBIE!"
ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that affects motor neurons in the brain and spinal cord, often leading to muscle weakness and atrophy. While there is no cure, Neil's experience with the Neubie suggests a potential new path for helping patients maintain function and quality of life longer than traditional care allows.
The NEUBIE® (short for NEURO-Bio-Electric Stimulator) uses direct current to stimulate the nervous system, helping to reconnect the brain with muscles impacted by injury, neurological conditions, or disease. By targeting the nervous system directly, therapists can help patients re-educate movement patterns and improve function in ways not typically seen with conventional physical therapy devices.
"This is what is so exciting about utilizing the Neubie for a neuro-based approach to rehabilitation. Introducing Neil and other clients with ALS to the Neubie allows them to rediscover the connection between their nervous system and function again as so often they can feel like the disease is robbing them of their dignity and quality of life. Making a difference in Neil's journey is a privilege I don't take for granted and it wouldn't be possible without the powerful technology of the Neubie," said Dr. Hannah Torres, PT, DPT.
Neil continues to share his journey in the hopes that more patients, therapists, and doctors explore the applications of neurological rehabilitation.
