CAPS®
Comprehensive Assessment of Postural Systems

CAPS Professional

To better serve our customers' needs we have developed two different posturography products, the CAPS® Lite and the CAPS® Professional.

Our CAPS® products are the perfect tools for balance screenings, assessments, diagnosis and treatment, as well as for fall prevention. We designed, engineered and developed these products and we hold several patents on the technologies involved. Manufactured by us at our facility in Wyoming, we pride ourselves on the fact that we are continuously improving them in response to customer needs and feedback.

CAPS Lite

We provide our customers with the tools they might need to make them successful in their professional endeavors of helping their patients regain and maintain their balance.

We offer them not only innovative, state of the art products that are extremely accurate and precise to satisfy the stringent standards for clinical posturography recommended by the International Society of Posture and Gait Research, but also the very best support on all aspects of the use of our products.

And if you are interested in providing balance therapy or are already doing so, you'll appreciate the book we published: it has been called "the best book ever written on the subject".

The benefits our products provide to medical practitioners

First and foremost, our products provide the ability to quickly and objectively quantify a person's balance and risk of falling. We have been granted a U.S. patent on our process of testing and assessing a person's balance in less than 60 seconds. In the time it usually takes to weigh a person, we can provide not only that person's weight but also their Body Mass Index (BMI) and an objective measurement of their balance. This is extremely important since most persons with balance impairments do not even realize they have any impairment because they compensate for their deficit. And in most cases it is virtually impossible to accurately detect changes in a person's balance with the naked eye.

The fast assessment made possible by our CAPS® products is also essential for providing the ability to easily monitor and document the changes in a person's balance resulting from the treatments provided by the clinician using our CAPS®.

Our product line also provides medical practitioners with specialized diagnostic testing to help them identify the cause of balance and/or vestibular problems, as well as with biofeedback rehabilitation exercise protocols that can be used in the effective treatment of most balance disorder patients.

And if your specialty is sport medicine, you should know that balance testing is the only objective diagnostic method for traumatic brain injuries (TBI) and concussions.

If you are interested in learning more about the issues regarding human balance, vestibular and balance testing, and basic clinical management of balance patients, feel free to download our white paper on the subject. It also contains some specific information regarding applications and benefits of the CAPS® system in different clinical settings.

Every clinician who deals with patients who have dizziness and balance disorders will find this book to be an invaluable aid not only in the diagnosis of dizziness and balance disorders, but in the treatment of those conditions as well.

Features include:

  • A brief summary of the anatomy and physiology of the vestibular system
  • How to identify the patient with vestibular problems
  • Assessment tools for vestibular diagnosis
  • Risk and safety factors for falls
  • An overview of Vestibular Rehabilitation Therapy (VRT)
  • VRT treatment protocols
  • Eye, head and body exercises to both improve balance and gait and then maintain them throughout life
  • 22 reproducible patient handouts that include exercises and easy to follow procedures your patients can use to continue their therapy at home (copyright has been waived on the patient handouts so they may be freely reproduced and distributed to your patients. The 22 patient handout pages are perforated to facilitate removal from the book for copying).

This is the one reference work that everyone who is interested in diagnosing dizziness and balance disorders or providing effective treatment for those conditions should have.
