Biofeedback for Physical Therapy

As physical therapists, we help people move better, recover faster, and regain confidence in their bodies. But achieving great outcomes takes more than just repetition—it requires accuracy, engagement, and the right tools. That’s where mTrigger fits in.

mTrigger is a wireless sEMG (surface electromyography) biofeedback system that shows real-time muscle activation
during therapy. Whether you're rehabbing post-op knees, managing chronic pain, or retraining movement after neurological injury, mTrigger makes your interventions more measurable and effective.

Why Biofeedback Works

It’s hard for patients to activate the right muscles when they can’t feel them. mTrigger bridges that gap—giving immediate visual feedback so they know when they’re recruiting correctly, how strong the activation is, and how consistent their effort is.

  • Reinforce correct movement patterns
  • Identify compensation or inhibition
  • Set activation targets and track progress
  • Boost patient motivation with games and real-time feedback

It’s not just helpful for you—it’s empowering for them. Patients become more engaged, more consistent, and more aware of their own movement.

Easy to Integrate

  • Portable and app-based—easy to use in clinic or at home
  • Affordable and efficient—simple setup with no sticky gels or wires
  • Versatile—ideal for ortho, neuro, or sports rehab

You don’t have to change your treatment style—mTrigger simply enhances what you already do. It brings clarity to every contraction, focus to every rep, and measurable value to every session.

mTrigger® Biofeedback System - Pelvic Floor Bundle

$579.00
/

Description

Engage in pelvic floor rehabilitation with the mTrigger® Biofeedback System. mTrigger uses surface electromyography (sEMG)-based instrumentation to measure the electrical activity produced by the pelvic floor musculature during rehabilitation. Set the max voluntary contraction goal for the target muscle(s) so that a voluntary effort is required during each rep of contraction or relaxation.

Increase compliance and engagement via custom settings, training, play, and progress tracking on our easy-to-use mobile platform. Audiovisual feedback in the mTrigger mobile app provides real-time data to help patients achieve efficient neuromuscular re-education and put value in every rep. mTrigger makes pelvic floor training effective, engaging, and accessible.

This pelvic floor bundle allows clinicians and patients to begin treatment with a complete, ready-to-use system for both in-clinic and home programs. With flexible probe options and the portability of the mTrigger Biofeedback System, this bundle supports a wide range of pelvic health applications including urinary incontinence, pelvic pain, postpartum recovery, and post-surgical rehabilitation.

The mTrigger Individual Unit + Accessories includes:

  • 1 mTrigger Biofeedback unit
  • 2 sensing cables
  • 5 pouches of small round (1.25") mTrigger Sensing Electrodes (4 electrodes per pouch)
  • 3 vaginal OR rectal probes
  • 1 mobile device stand
  • 1 wall charger
