Choose a Route
Whether cycling individually or as a part of group therapy, OmniTour™ offers various routes and ride options that engage patients in their treatment and motivate them to keep going.
Tour Movies
Tour Movies allow patients to explore more than 100 routes across the world. Patients can ride through Amsterdam’s charming canals, experience the majesty of the Grand Canyon, or even trek through Patagonia.
Memory Lane
Memory Lane makes it possible for patients to journey back in time with the help of archival photos. Patients can cycle through cities of their past from the 1930s all the way to the 1990s.
Photo Albums
Photo Albums give patients the ability to cycle through a range of themed image libraries, including animals, food and drink, sports, transportation, and more. Challenge patients with “Guess the Picture” mode, which gradually reveals each photo in puzzle pieces, or simply use the photos to spark conversation.
ACP Evidence-Based Clinical Programs
Cycling, a key component of many of our clinical programs, has been proven to enhance skeletal muscle power and endurance, improve gait parameters, and boost overall functional performance. It also plays a crucial role in reducing the risk and fear of falling, promoting better mental health, and ultimately improving patients’ quality of life.4
