Rehabilitation with electric bike
Not only are electric bikes great fun to ride, they can also help rehabilitation. It has been known for a long time that gentle exercise following an illness or surgery can accelerate the healing process. What better way than to do your exercise on an electric bike.
On an electric bike the action is the same as a stationary exercise bike but much more enjoyable and in the fresh air. You can choose what level of assistance you require, from very easy to quite hard. You have the option to reduce the power level as your movement and strength improves.
This makes an electric bike an ideal rehabilitation tool, helping you rebuild muscles and improving movement in joints without causing undue stress and strain.
Most of our customers who have bought a bike for rehabilitation purposes carry on using them long after they have recuperated, as they have enjoyed the freedom and exercise an electric bike has given them.
Many are recovering from knee and hip surgery, broken bones from an accident or fall, muscle injuries and a variety of other ailments. Sometimes it is just simply a case of wanting to build up general strength and fitness. Always take medical or appropriate professional advice before embarking on a fitness programme.
