Success Stories

“My son actually asks for the Power Up Stabilizers because it is the only way he can accurately operate the head switches for his augmentative communication system. The Power Up Stabilizers give him the freedom to communicate with the world around him.”

Nancy Salerno, whose son is 14- years old and has athetoid cerebral palsy.

 

“What a difference the Power Up Stabilizers handles have made in the life of my son, Luis. He practices using the handles every day and it’s made a huge difference in his independence skills. He is stronger, can keep his head up longer, hold his eye gaze and use his hands at the same time for up to 10 minutes! Before using and practicing with the handles, this was impossible.

When he is in his stander, Luis used to lean far to the left. Now, with the Power Up Stabilizers he can fix his body all by himself, hold himself up and bring his body back to the center line independently. In the past, I had to be there to adjust his body, now he is strong enough to do it himself. This is big! On his wheelchair, Luis is able to transfer is weight to the stabilizer handle and then use his eyes on the screen and use his left hand on the computer maintaining his posture in the center line, using his eyes and hand at the same time. This is new and a result of practice and use of the Power Up Stabilizers. The strength in his neck muscles are also increasing due to practice with the stabilizers. Lou could not hold his head up for anytime at all before using the Power Ups and now he is bringing his head up with the help of the handles and Luis can swallow better and his drooling is slowing down. I am not wiping his mouth as much because he is better able to swallow.
