Multi Cervical Unit
The MCU device is an advanced way of evaluating and treating neck pain & headaches.
It can test and treat cervical deficits in range of motion and strength, and can aide in treatment of whiplash, post-surgery and even headaches.
This unit has been shown to have some of the best documented outcomes for patients who use it. The outcome study linked below shows 60-70% of patients completing training on the MCU had 60-70% improvement in there disability scores and 100% improvement in strength.
Most patients who respond well to treatment will continue to have improved outcomes two years after discharge.
The MCU is able to give objective data by measuring the patient's baseline strength and ROM at the beginning of treatment and then again after the series of treatments is completed the patient can be re-tested to show the increase or change in strength and ROM at that time.
