Rehabilitation Hospital of Indiana (RHI) understands the need to stay connected to experts that know you and understand your health and physical needs. The Wellness Program at RHI fills the gap of completion of outpatient therapy, physical therapy, occupational therapy, and returning to your everyday activities. The program helps you stay connected with RHI staff, facilities, and equipment that will help keep you moving. By joining one of our Wellness Programs, the RHI team will continue to support your long-term health goals.

Start or continue your wellness journey with any of the following programs:

TRACTION

Who:  Designed for people who have finished outpatient therapy or who have a very high deductible and would still like to continue working towards mobility goals. All neurological diagnoses are welcome.

What: TRACTION is a self-pay program consisting of one-hour training sessions. Sessions will be tailored to your personal goals and will focus on the kinds of tasks you wish to be able to perform, all while working at high intensities to promote neurological improvements. Training consists of high-intensity walking, if goals are for walking, or other high-intensity functional activities. A clearance from a physician is required to start the program.

When: 1-hour sessions currently scheduled Monday-Thursday afternoons. The initial evaluation may last up to 2 hours and includes baseline walking, balance, and endurance testing as appropriate. Reassessments will occur after 12 training sessions, and the ultimate goal is to get you to a point that you are able to participate in the types of activities you wish to participate in and continue an exercise program at home. If after 12 sessions you feel you have not met these goals, you may enroll again pending availability in the program. 

How:  To request an evaluation, call (317) 329-2520 or email us at TRACTION@rhin.com.
