I suffered from stroke in 2022 and my mobility was deeply affected. I went to VRC for their Neuro Rehab Program. The staff were professional and caring. They used different advanced equipment to help me, e.g. the Exoskeleton for gait training, the robotic hand to restore hand dexterity. Now I am able to walk confidently at home without walking aids.
After stoke, I needed to walk with ataxic gait. It was very difficult for me to climb stairs. I had to give up my gym workout. The therapists at VRC were so encouraging and gave me a series of fun and engaging exercise. It kept me motivated and eager to return for more sessions. Now I am able to climb stairs and enjoy the gym facilities on the second floor.
Because of my Parkinson’s Disease, I had poor balancing while walking. VRC therapists conducted precise assessments to identify the primary factor. They designed a personalized training program for me, including balance training with visual compensation. Now I regained my confidence and is able to participate in outdoor activities.
In recent years, I have been suffering with gait problems, depression and insomnia. My family brought me to VRC for assessment, the therapists found me having Parkinson symptoms like tremor, slow movement and muscle stiffness. They referred me to a doctor and I was diagnosed with Parkinson's. With the help of medication and physiotherapy, my situation has been improved.
I was diagnosed with Parkinson’s few years ago. I did not receive any appropriate training and my mobility was declining. I also had muscle strain and back pain. VRC therapists helped me with home assessment and modification, creating a safer and comfortable environment to assist my living. Also, they designed a series of rehab training to improve my muscle strength, balancing and mobility. Now I can get out of my bed and walk at home on my own.
My husband experienced an incomplete spinal cord injury a few years ago, and was in a need for maximum assistance. Other than receiving regular trainings at VRC, the therapists explored different assistive tools such as power-assisted wheelchairs and transfer boards for us. Their comprehensive care helps a lot on my husband’s recovery and greatly alleviates our caring burden.
My mom was reluctant to go out or exercise, especially after COVID. I encouraged her to visit VRC for their Senior Prehab Program. The team was taking good care of my mom with her complex medical background. The program was a combination of interesting physical and cognitive training. Although the rehabilitation journey was challenging to her, her walking stability improved and she now feels safer when walking at home. She has rejoined the social gatherings with friends and family.
I have been suffering from should pain and leg numbness for years. I first received pain treatment at the centre. However, the therapists made me realized regular exercise was the long run solution. I joined their Senior Gym afterwards. I found the equipment there are senior friendly and my limbs strength and balancing have improved a lot.
I have been suffering COAD for a decade and get worsened after a chest infection. I received rehabilitation at VRC for 2 months. The team closely monitored my heart rate and SpO2 levels throughout the training. I noticed an improvement in my walking endurance. I greatly appreciate being under the care of a dedicated therapist who ensures my well-being during the sessions.
