Physical Therapy and NEUBIE: An Innovative Solution for Neuro Re-education
Physical therapy is an essential aspect of modern medicine, helping patients recover from injuries, chronic pain and other conditions that affect their mobility and quality of life. With the latest advancements in healthcare technology, physical therapists now have access to an incredible range of tools and techniques to help patients achieve their goals.
The NEUBIE Device is now considered one of the best tools for reeducating the neuromuscular system. To learn the science behind the machine, see the two articles below – otherwise, keep reading to see who and how it helps at your physical therapy practice.

The NEUBIE Focuses on the Muscles and Nervous System
The NEUBIE device uses electrical stimulation and biofeedback to help retrain the nervous system and improve muscle function. NEUBIE can elicit a response from the patient by mimicking the electrical activity of muscles in real-time and then provide customized stimulation based on their specific needs. This allows for efficient and effective training of the neuromuscular system, leading to improved movement patterns and reduced pain.
By identifying the health of the nervous system early in treatment, it helps drive your treatment approach, interventions utilized and helps use objective data to show progress.
PTs compound their patient success when utilizing Heart Rate Variability (HRV) with the NEUBIE to assess the baseline health of the Autonomic Nervous System. This helps the therapist determine the cause and effect of any issues the patient may be experiencing, and develop an evidence-based approach to treatment. The NEUBIE also provides objective data to help track the patient’s progress, making it easier to document the efficacy of treatment.
Benefits of the NEUBIE for Physical Therapy
One of the key benefits of the NEUBIE is its versatility. It can be used for a wide range of patients, from those with Orthopedic and Neuromuscular conditions to those seeking optimal health.
It’s actually a common misconception that we as physical therapists can only intervene with neuromuscular reeducation for patients that have a neurological disorder or diagnosis. When, in fact, the nervous system controls the entire body in its proper functioning, whether it’s an orthopedic or neurological condition.
The nervous system plays a critical role in everything from pain management to movement, and the NEUBIE can help identify any functionality limitations or issues early on in treatment, which in turn helps drive the treatment approach and interventions used.
Another advantage of the NEUBIE is its ease of use. The device is backed by comprehensive onboarding from NeuPTtech with virtual CEUs clinical competency certifications, practical application training and ongoing support as part of our MVP Program. We will teach you about compliance, share the appropriate, proper documentation and train your clinicians on the effective use of the NEUBIE for neuromuscular reeducation. This ensures practices can quickly and effectively utilize the device and start seeing a return on investment in no time.
When it comes to adding new technology or services to a physical therapy practice, it has to make sense and be effective for your particular business model. To do that, it must work as intended, provide quick, measurable results, be easy to onboard, apply easily to your therapists’ unique treatment philosophies and – last but not least – document the efficacy of treatment. The NEUBIE accomplishes each of these important tasks.
The NEUBIE is also FDA cleared for multiple indications, including neuro re-education, and has specific protocols that can positively affect the Vagus Nerve and the Autonomic Nervous System. This means that even patients without a neuromuscular diagnosis can benefit from neuro re-education using the NEUBIE.
The Neuro-Re-education to Help Patients Reach Their Potential
Hundreds of physical therapy owners have realized the NEUBIE is the cutting-edge tool they’ve been looking for to provide the best care for patients. With its versatility, ease of use and FDA clearance, it’s no wonder why physical therapists see the NEUBIE as the greatest innovation to be used in their practice, whether in neuromuscular or orthopedic care.
