After an injury, surgery, or other medical operation, your road to recovery may include physical therapy. With the use of a Continuous Passive Motion Machine, you can rehabilitate your muscles and joints safely, comfortably, and (most importantly) naturally. Whether you need to regain function and range of motion in your arms or legs, a CPM Machine can help facilitate your rehabilitation. 

Physical recovery isn’t as simple as it may seem. Even if an individual is in good health following an injury or surgery, their path to recovery is completely contingent on their treatment plan and activities. Simply telling your body to move in a certain way won’t make it happen - motor function relies on both the synapses in your brain firing correctly and your body following through on the physical ability. Think of your body like a machine: when one cog refuses to operate, the whole system is affected. 

Continuous Passive Motion Devices are intended to alleviate discomfort, swelling, soreness, and stiffness by having you repeat gentle motions that can heal and retrain your muscles and joints. Usually, your physical therapist will employ devices that feature wheels and track systems, enabling you to delicately repeat full motions that retrain your mind and body on particular movements. Most of these machines can be used from the comfort of your home, however, they are also widely used in therapy clinics and rehabilitation facilities.
