What is a MOTOmed?
A MOTOmed is a specialist piece of exercise equipment designed for rehabilitation and physical therapy. Similar to an exercise bike, the MOTOmed allows you to exercise either your legs, or arms, or both at the same time from a seated position such as a chair or wheelchair.
Whether you’re recovering from an injury, operation, looking to improve overall strength, prevent sarcopenia, or more, MOTOmed can be your key to improving mobility, strength, and overall physical function.
Who can Benefit from Using MOTOmed?
People use MOTOmed for a range of reasons such as neurological rehab, post-op knee and hip pain recovery, continuing rehabilitation after hospital discharge, and for improving general strength and mobility.
The MOTOmed is useful for those with spinal cord injury, stroke, parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis and many other neurological conditions. The MOTOmed promotes enhanced motor skills, strength, coordination and symmetry.
Ideal for postoperative recovery, aiding in regaining strength and mobility.

Choose from Passive or Active Movement Options
With active or passive movement options, MOTOmed provides versatile exercise for both arms and legs, either individually or at the same time.
Passive Movement Option
This option allows your movement to be supported much like how an electric bike functions. Providing gentle support for your exercise can be beneficial to help increase your range of motion and even reduce muscle spasms. Adjust the speed and direction—forward or backward—according to your preferences and promoting overall muscle activity.
Active Movement Option
The active option lets you introduce resistance levels to your routine. Choose from a wide range of levels to suit your ability and work on improving strength in your rehabilitation. Whether you’re recovering from surgery, managing a neurological condition, or simply seeking improved fitness, the MOTOmed’s active mode allows you to tailor your workout intensity. Easily adjust resistance levels to meet your fitness goals.
