About SWAN Rehab
SWAN was founded by Kay Wing in September 2003 to serve the needs of stroke and brain injury survivors. It has now expanded to also serve those with other neurological conditions.

About ReoSTREAM
ReoSTREAM utilizes robot-assisted technology to provide every patient, regardless of initial functional level, with thousands of functionally oriented, customized, progressively engaged arm movements leading to measurable gains in a three-week period. This flexible technology creates a program solution for every patient. Each patient is progressed individually: low-functioning stroke patients receive intense proximal training leading to increased range of motion, normalized muscle tone, and decreased pain; mid- functioning stroke survivors will gain strength and increased active range of motion; high-functioning stroke survivors improve range of motion, smoothness and coordination of movement.
