1 in 6 patients
Face delayed discharges, that's 1.4 million patients
22%
of delays are caused by slow physical recovery and patients needing more time / rehab
Speed up patient recovery by integrating S-Press into usual care.
‍
Trust return on investment - S-Press cost = 2 patients discharged from an ITU bed 1 day earlier, or 4 patients from a general ward home 1 day earlier .

S-Press vs motorised bike:
- S-Press = 1/5 cost of bed version of motorised bike.
- S-Press can be used on either the bed or in chair/wheelchair, unlike the bike where you would need both the bed and the chair versions of the bike which costs around £19,000
- S-Press provides targeted leg muscles strengthening
- S-Press use causes no stress on the cardiovascular system
- S-Press can be used if a patient has hip precautions in place, patients cannot use the bike
- S-Press needs no electricity plug accessibility or PAT testing
- S-Press annual servicing can be done by in house clinical engineering team
‍
- S-Press use compliments the motorised bike therapy well. They are both important for different elements of a successful patient recovery.

Working with experts to break the status quo

Rehabilitation innovation

There is a desperate need for better, more accessible equipment to help our most vulnerable and at-risk patients reach their potential and live a full and active life, and a way to ease some of the stresses on the hospital system. We aim to help.

The first of it's kind

The rehabilitation tool that you and your patients need.

The S-Press was invented by a physiotherapist, so that she and her colleagues worldwide could give those patients most at risk of a poor outcome the opportunity of a good outcome and their best quality of life.

1.

Portable, safe and easy to set up

Weighing just 7.35kg, the S-Press is portable and easy to store so you can use it anywhere, anytime. You will not hurt your back manoeuvring the S-Press between patients or setting it up, like some other rehab equipment.

2.

NHS compliant - Tissue viability and infection control

Specifically designed with ZERO pressure on heel area and padded leg rests for compliance with tissue viability policy. Fully enclosed for fast, effective and easy cleaning to ensure infection control compliance.

3.

Concentric and eccentric loading - full leg strengthening - essential for sit to stand action

EMG testing has shown that the quadriceps, glutes, gastrocnemius (calf) and hamstring muscles in the leg are strengthened therapeutically and effectively.

Hi, I'm Jen

25+ years experience in hospital in-patient and community physiotherapy

I designed the S-Press because I was so frustrated by the lack of effective leg strengthening equipment available to help my patients. I tried to find something to buy, but nothing was safe enough or suitable for the NHS so I designed what was needed myself.

I needed something that would help my most complex patients early in their rehab journey. To prevent deconditioning of these patients who were really struggling with their rehab. I wanted to quickly and easily build up their baseline leg strength, so needed a better tool than we had. I needed to specifically target the leg muscles involved with sit to stand, transfers and walking, the key elements needed for safe discharge home.

The result is the S- PRESS

Testimonials

"I truly believe, as Rob did, that it was the S-Press that enabled Rob to walk again. I would ask that every patient with a condition like Rob should have access to an S-Press"

Judy - Wife of S-Press user Rob

“‘I felt happy. I could build up my muscles and get home. It was something that could really help me get home quicker.’

Northamptonshire Healthcare NHS patient

“I can see the potential to empower the patient, their family and other staff groups to assist in rehabilitation delivery whilst enabling greater autonomy of exercise outside of structured rehabilitation sessions.”

Intensive care physiotherapy lead

“It could also help me to reach the gold standard of service that I personally and my directorate/trust strive to achieve by increasing the amount of times patients receive therapy and ultimately provide better outcomes for patients.”
