Regular exercise through the MyoCycle improves moods and increases quality of life.

Meet Chris Breen! Chris is 63 years old and has multiple sclerosis (MS). His condition caused fluctuations in his mood and lowered his quality of life. Learn how the MyoCycle helped Chris overcome these challenges!
Multiple Sclerosis

Chris found that multiple sclerosis was affecting his quality of life in a variety of ways. He was losing strength, his blood circulation was poor, he had limited movement in his legs, and his mood and self-image were impacted.

We helped Chris get set up with a MyoCycle so he could have access to FES exercise in the comfort of his home. Chris told us he saw encouraging results after he began regularly exercising with his bike. His strength and circulation improved, and he noticed a positive effect on both his mood and self-esteem. 

"I’ve worked up to 3 times per week on the MyoCycle for an hour each session. It’s a real workout that gives me a feeling of accomplishment when you can do that consistently."

Chris was very pleased with the experience of setting up and getting started on his MyoCycle. He said it does take some time to get used to, but overall, he found the MyoCycle very easy for beginners. 

From start to finish, Chris said his experience with our staff was outstanding. He appreciated the support he found from our technical team, our support staff, and our PT support. He said working with each team was an excellent experience.
