SineBravo

Stroke can leave residual symptoms — varying degrees of paralysis of arms and legs or motor clumsiness. Paralyzed limbs can be improved with massage, physiotherapy, EMS stimulation and constant practice: instead of the "lost" movement we teach a new movement to the muscle, the brain and the motor nerve (neuroplasticity).

SineBravo plays a motivational key role in this process: when the patient attempts voluntary movement of the paretic limb, SineBravo detects even the smallest effort and makes it visible. Therefore the patient senses progress even if visible results are not yet present.

Kegel exercises — conscious contraction and relaxation of the pelvic-floor muscles — are key for stress incontinence and postpartum rehabilitation. The classic problem: the patient DOES NOT know whether they activate the correct muscle. Often they contract abdominal or gluteal muscles while the true pelvic-floor muscle remains passive.

With the appropriate probe (pelvic probes sold separately) SineBravo makes it visible: if the pelvic-floor muscle truly contracts, the bar graph rises. This supports the development of conscious control — far more targeted training than Kegel exercises without visual feedback.

EMG-biofeedback is a key method in modern physiotherapy — in the West it is increasingly integrated into rehabilitation treatments. With clinical-level sensitivity (resolution on the order of 1 microvolt) SineBravo enables patient re-education. The desktop stand supports hands-free treatment (critical for paretic patients). 365-day statistics + PC connection for clinical documentation.

After childbirth the pelvic-floor muscles often weaken — this can present as stress incontinence, low back pain, or sexual dysfunction. Classic treatment is Kegel exercises, but many women are unsure if they perform them correctly. With the appropriate pelvic probe SineBravo provides visual feedback on correct Kegel execution. Starting after 6–8 weeks postpartum (with gynecologist approval), training of 3–4 sessions per week is recommended.

In post-operative rehab patients often fear "doing the exercises wrong" or that a muscle "is not working." SineBravo makes it visible: does the quadriceps actually activate during a squat attempt? Is the hamstring stronger than the quadriceps (which may be problematic for knee stability)? EMG measurements provide quantitative feedback that greatly aids conscious rehab training.

EMG-biofeedback can also be useful in athletic practice: for example you can measure the activity of a muscle you cannot properly activate or identify side-to-side differences to help learn the correct movement. Developing conscious muscle activation can impact performance. It DOES NOT replace classic EMS training but complements it.

SineBravo and DuoBravo N are complementary devices for different stages of the rehab process:

• Early stage – DuoBravo N (ETS mode): the patient’s voluntary effort is supplemented with electrical stimulation. Useful when the patient cannot yet achieve a visible contraction independently.
• Middle–late stage – SineBravo: developing conscious muscle control with visual feedback. The patient can produce substantial volitional activity and the goal is independent muscle control without stimulation.

A complete rehab protocol can use both devices according to recovery stages.

SineBravo's 365-day statistics storage is the longest in the portfolio. Stroke rehab or incontinence training often takes 6–24 months — SineBravo tracks progress throughout. Long-term EMG activity trends are objective evidence that rehab advances even when the patient subjectively does not feel progress. At clinical visits the treating physician or physiotherapist can analyze the data — if transferred to a PC with separate software.
