The first step is an evaluation during which a clinician will discuss your condition, demonstrate the MyoPro and explain what it can and cannot do. Even patients with no visible arm mobility usually have sufficient muscle signals present for MyoPro to work.
You return to the clinician for a final fitting, during which adjustments are made, and your MyoPro is tuned to suit your needs precisely. After a short training session, you get to take your MyoPro home. Finally, there are follow-up visits with an occupational or physical therapist to help you make the most of your new brace and enjoy a more active and empowered life.
It is recommended that all new MyoPro users attend occupational or physical therapy to develop proficiency and independence with their MyoPro. Once a therapist is trained on the MyoPro system, they can assist the user by developing a customized treatment plan to maximize their functionality and overall success. Therapy with a MyoPro can include functional task practice, improving muscle control and coordination, learning to don/doff the MyoPro, and caring for it at home. Questions?

When people learn a new skill such as riding a bike or playing an instrument, it takes practice, patience and dedication. The same is true for learning how to operate and use the MyoPro to complete functional tasks. It takes a new user – on average – several weeks to master his/her MyoPro, although this varies from person to person.
