Mobility loss can make it difficult to walk across the room—or even get out of a chair. Whether you are struggling with the progression of a movement disorder like Parkinson’s disease or the sudden loss of mobility caused by stroke or other neurological injury, Mount Sinai’s Abilities Research Center can help. Using innovative and individualized therapy approaches and technologies, we develop a treatment plan based on your needs and goals. We also conduct groundbreaking research, to move treatment options forward. Our state-of-the-art approaches include robotics, augmented reality and virtual reality, invasive and noninvasive neural stimulation, and gamified rehabilitation.
