iWalk Recovery Center, Sheltering Arms Hospital - Mechanicsville

The iWALK Recovery Center™ represents a unique vision of what therapy can be and a place to explore what is possible. It is designed to take advantage of the brain’s neuroplasticity, its ability to compensate for injury using old and new connections to recover lost function. While the fastest recovery is likely to occur early on in treatment, research shows that improvement can be made long after an injury.

Designed to meet the needs of both acute and chronic conditions, the iWALK Recovery Center™ is a specialty program offered by Sheltering Arms that provides research-driven, state-of-the-science care from thoughtful clinicians with expertise working with patients who have experienced a neurological injury or illness.

The advanced technological equipment and clinical techniques can only be accessed together in the iWALK Recovery Center at Sheltering Arms.
