Why Therapy After Traumatic Brain Injury Matters
After a traumatic or acquired brain injury, therapy is vital. It helps you rebuild strength, gain independence, and adjust to new ways of moving and thinking.

Real Life Stories from the Lusio Family
We’ve seen firsthand the impact early intervention can have after a traumatic brain injury (TBI).
One standout example is John, who sustained a TBI in a motor vehicle accident. When we first met him, the only active movement he had was in his thumb—just 3 to 5 degrees. We customised his LusioMATE setup especially for him. We placed sensors on his thumb and hand to use that small but important range of motion.
This simple setup gave John something important—motivation, control, and a clear view of his progress in rehab. It turned tiny movements into measurable wins.
Just as importantly, his therapy team could track his progress remotely, tweak his goals when needed, and celebrate his efforts—keeping their clinical connection strong between in-person appointments.
