Flexiciser Signs Vendor Contract with PMSI
Carlsbad, CA, September 19, 2008 --(PR.com)-- Flexiciser International which provides movement therapy solutions for people with mobility challenges today announced that it has signed a vendor contract with PMSI.
Since 1982, Flexiciser has designed motorized at home rehabilitation equipment for the mobility challenged, including (but not limited to) people with Spinal Cord Injuries (SCI), Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI), MS, Stroke and Parkinsons, to name but a few. PMSI has earned a reputation as the workers’ compensation industry’s top choice for pharmacy, clinical, medical products and specialty services. The company serves as the trusted resource for thousands of insurance payors, state workers’ compensation funds, employers, and third-party administrators for their workers’ compensation and catastrophic care needs.
“The Flexiciser movement therapy products allow PMSI to offer yet another innovative solution and a value added service to its thousands of customers” Mark Del Llano, Manager of Vendor Relations for PMSI said. "We are very excited to be working with an industry leader like Flexiciser in addressing the critically necessary cost containment concerns combined with positive patient outcomes”.
Loss of movement has severe consequences, both physically and mentally. The Flexiciser technology provides both passive and active movement and can help to eliminate or relieve many physical challenges such as bad circulation, swelling in limbs, spasticity, muscle atrophy, edema, decubitus ulcers, stiff joints, and more. It can also provide resistance training to strengthen the arms, abdomen and torso, if the patient so chooses.
Flexiciser technology is scientifically proven to provide desirable patient outcomes in increase in Range of Motion, decrease in Pain as well as increases in Cardiovascular Benefits (heart rate, systolic blood pressure, ratings of perceived exertion and oxygen uptake). Case managers nationwide have recommended the use of Flexiciser for their patients and have been extremely pleased with the patient outcomes, combined with cost effectiveness and durability of the technology.
“As a nurse case manager, I have facilitated purchase of a Flexiciser™ for a quadriplegic and a tetraplegic – both having minimal use of upper extremities. In each case there has been seen a decrease of in lower extremity spasticity. There is also an emotional uplift. As one individual put it – ‘This is the first time I’ve seen all 4 extremities working at the same time since my accident.’”
