Congratulations on your website for improving balance for seniors. As the CEO of SportKAT, LLC, a world leader in manufacturing technologically advanced equipment for improving balance, I would like to applaud you on the job you have done. Your web site is a great step forward in meeting the balance needs of the elderly.
You will be delighted to know that our family of products is helping return balance function to patients all over the world. The technique is simple and the results are incredible. Our patented system uses an unstable platform and a computer to provide exercise to the Neurosensory System, requiring all three of the peripheral systems (Visual, Vestibular and Proprioceptive) to work together to perform a function. The functional results span from no longer needing a walker to grounded jet pilots recovering from vertigo and back in the cockpit within 2 weeks.
For over 17 years, SportKAT, LLC has been manufacturing these systems which simultaneously engage and train all three peripheral systems. Training with the SportKAT or the new Korebalance System helps improve neuroplasticity, which is the bodies’ ability to find new neurological pathways. This results in improvement with coordinated activities, such as walking; and will help reduce patient falls.
Innumerable patients suffering from various disorders have reported functional improvement from using this system. The disorders include the following: Ataxia, Meniere’s Disease, Peripheral Neuropathy, Presbystasis, Closed Head Injuries, and Traumatic Brain injuries, just to name a few.
The subconscious function of the cerebellum and the skeletal muscles is essential to smooth coordinated movement. SportKAT systems help train this mechanism in order to achieve this movement. In addition, you can count on our systems to generate a “fun factor” creating interest and making patient compliance no longer an obstacle.
