Advanced Biomechanical Rehabilitation (ABR) is a unique biomechanically based rehabilitation approach, typically for young adults and children with brain injury such as Cerebral Palsy, which brings predictable improvement in motor and cognitive skills as a result of the strengthening of the musculoskeletal structure and internal myofascia. It makes use of common household items such as towels, foam, and pillows as a platform, or a pneumatic lens, which comes between the patient and the person performing the exercise, known as the technician. ABR utilizes these common household items to act as a Force Transfer Medium, which in turn transfers the energy produced by applying pressure on the pneumatic lens into the internal myofascia. This energy is only able to reach the internal tissues by bypassing the hard external structures as a result of the slow, and controlled movements of the pressure applied on the soft Force Transfer Medium.
