Tigo Powered Passive / Active Exercise Unit

The THERA-Trainer Tigo is a versatile and robust therapy device designed for daily active/passive exercise in both clinical facilities and home environments. Developed according to the most recent quality and safety standards, it enables users with physical impairments to maintain mobility, build strength and improve circulation.

Its powerful yet quiet motor and intelligent electronic flywheel provide smooth, harmonic support to even the weakest residual muscle strength, making it an essential tool for neurological and geriatric rehabilitation.

Ranked No. 1 on the HSE DPS tender, the Tigo comes in six configurations: lower limb, lower and upper limb, and paediatric. Choose only the features your patients need, from a basic leg trainer to a full arm-and-leg system with touchscreen.

Designed and built in Germany by THERA-Trainer, the Tigo is trusted by hospitals, rehabilitation centres and home users in more than 70 countries. Patients train their legs or upper body from their own chair or wheelchair, with or without motor assistance.

One Device, Three Ways to Train

Passive: The motor moves the limbs with no effort needed from the user. This suits patients with little or no voluntary movement, and it promotes circulation and joint mobility.

Assisted: The motor supports the movement while the patient contributes whatever strength they have. This bridges the gap between passive and active therapy.

Active: The patient pedals with their own muscle power against adjustable resistance to build strength and endurance.

The move from passive to active is seamless. Training parameters can be changed at any point during a session, so therapy develops as the patient progresses.

Features

• Robust & Quiet Operation: A durable all-metal frame gives a stable footprint, high-performance output and extremely quiet operation suitable for any therapy environment.
• Harmonic Movement Support: An electronic flywheel generates a smooth, harmonic cycling movement. It intelligently supports and develops even the most minimal residual muscle strength.
• Ready in Under a Minute: Built-in setup features, preloaded training programmes and one-touch start/stop mean training can begin in less than 60 seconds.
• Intuitive Controls: A clear control and display unit shows training time, resistance, active performance, distance and direction of rotation at a glance.
• Advanced Safety Features: Spasm detection, tip-up protection for chair and wheelchair users, and secure foot fixings keep every session safe.
• Leg & Upper Body Training: Legs and upper body can be exercised on the same device, with tool-free height and distance adjustment to suit each user.
• Stable & Mobile Design: An extendible metal base with castors gives exceptional stability during use and easy movement and storage afterwards.
• Engineered for Longevity: A certified product lifetime makes the Tigo a reliable long-term investment in patient care.
• Modular & Adaptable: Optional accessories let you tailor the Tigo to each patient, including specialised foot fixings, various arm supports and an advanced analysis software package.
• Motivating Software: Compatible THERA-soft software adds biofeedback, gamified training in virtual worlds, and objective measurements and reports for therapists.
