Is Neubie Right for Me? 

At Virginian Rehabilitation & Wellness, we seek innovative technology to give our clients the best care possible and expedite their return to everyday activity. The Neubie (pronounced “New-Be”) is one of our newest pieces of technology that delivers direct current electrical stimulation to clients with a wide variety of symptoms and conditions to enhance therapy outcomes! We often have clients enter our clinic for the first time having never heard of the Neubie before, or unsure if the Neubie is appropriate for them. The Neubie can be used for a wide variety of conditions and symptoms, the list below discusses the issues/conditions that can benefit from the Neubie: 

Using Innovative Therapy to Address Chronic Pain  

Using Innovative Therapy to Address Chronic Pain  

Pain is a serious and costly public health issue. The National Institutes of Health calls pain "the universal disorder." In its most benign form, pain warns us that something isn’t quite right, that we should pay attention, take medicine, or see a doctor. At its worst, pain robs us of our productivity, well-being, and, for many who suffer from extended illness, it dramatically affects how we live our lives. 

At Virginian Rehabilitation and Wellness, we have many tools to manage pain. One of our newer more innovative tools is the Neubie. The Neubie is an FDA-cleared system that uses electrical stimulation to bring about neuromotor change.

Improving Hand and Arm Function with Innovative Technology

The Neubie (pronounced New – Be) is exciting new technology in electrical stimulation that can be a vital tool to improve performance of the hand and arm especially following a stroke or other event that produces neurological damage. Unlike traditional e-stim, Neubie provides direct current, electrical stimulation that helps occupational therapists (OT) better identify muscular and nerve miscommunications and promote increased sensory and motor recovery. Improved communication between muscles and nerves helps clients achieve maximal function.
