ABLE video

ABLE is Courage Center's Activity-Based Locomotor Exercise program, an innovative new approach for people living with paralysis or neurological conditions. It uses emerging research about the benefits of activating muscles and nerves to promote a greater degree of neuro recovery. Most participants experience improvements in:

  • Overall health
  • Fitness
  • Strength 
  • Quality of life

The ABLE Program's non-traditional approach utilizes revolutionary locomotor training, Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES), the Giger MD therapy device and guided fitness activities to maximize recovery by challenging muscles below the level of injury.

If you are committed, prepared to work hard, and looking forward to being fitter and healthier, let our expert team design your personalized program. There is scientific and clinical evidence that supports the effectiveness of this nationally renowned program to improve or maintain health and fitness for life. Unique fitness packages are recommended for each person, based on an individual assessment.
