#249 Personalized Ongoing Out Patient Therapy: The Push to Walk Story
In this episode, we talk with Cynthia Templeton, mother of Darren Templeton, who sustained a C5 incomplete spinal cord injury in July 2004 at the age of 18 after diving into shallow water at the Jersey Shore. Upon returning home, after attending outpatient therapy at a renowned SCI rehab facility in California far away from their home, together they sought to create a close to home out patient SCI therapy option in New Jersey for ongoing daily and weekly rehab. Cynthia and Darren co-founded Push to Walk in 2007, a nonprofit dedicated to supporting individuals with paralysis and neuromuscular conditions by providing state-of-the-art SCI exercise equipment, and activities based therapy premised on neuroscience findings of the power of the mind to focus intentionally on the exercise to enhance the outcome.
