Calf rehab at home

Home rehab your physio can see.Each rise, measured.

Sensors on the shin, foot, and calf show the heel rise and how hard the calf works, compared with your other leg. Your physiotherapist set the target. Voimeli records the session and shares a short summary.

Calf raise screen: the seated leg with the thigh and shin sensors labelled, and the Sit, Rise, Hold, Lower, Rest steps.

Between visits

Most rehab happens at home.The clinic did not see it.

A programme is set in the clinic. The work is done in a living room, on a chair, alone. Voimeli measures that work and brings it back to the physio.

At home

A sheet of paper.

The exercise is printed on a page. You count in your head and guess how high the heel went.

At the clinic

A memory of the week.

Your physio asks how it went. The answer is what you remember on the day of the visit.

With Voimeli

A summary of each session.

Each rise is measured against the target. Your physio reads what happened, rep by rep.

The app

Built for the chair at home.Five screens, one exercise.

Voimeli Today screen in dark mode: weekly goal reached, 5 of 5 days, 55 good reps, last pain 8 of 10.

Today

Good afternoon.Time to rise.

The week sits at the top: the days you exercised, the reps that counted, and the last pain score you entered. Your physio sees these summaries.

The exercise

Sit. Rise. Lower.The calf shortens, then lengthens.

The drawing shows where each sensor goes and what the calf does at each step. Sit, rise, hold, lower, rest. Labels and X-ray help you place the pods.

History

Every rise,measured.

Each session sits next to the target your physio set. Rise and effort are kept apart, so you can see one without the other.

Measured

A counted rise.Three things, measured.

A rep counts when it meets the target your physio set. Three readings decide it.

How far the heel rose.

The shin and foot sensors show the rise, against the target your physio set.

How the calf worked.

The muscle sensor sits on the calf. The bar shows this leg as a percentage of your other leg, from a short hold earlier the same day.

How you lowered.

A counted rep keeps the calf working while the heel comes down, and lowers without dropping it.

Sample figures. Your targets come from your physiotherapist.

Inside the calf

Watch the muscle work.Rise, hold, lower.

The calf shortens to lift the heel and lengthens to lower it. Pick a rep to see what changes, and why it counts or not.

An illustration of a seated calf raise. Lengths come from a standard adult leg model, not from your own leg.

After the set

Then a number you enter.Pain, from 0 to 10.

You score pain after the session. The clinic sees that score with the summary. Pain of 8 or more, or a red-flag symptom, stops the exercise and points you to your clinic, or to 112.

For physiotherapists

Your clinic sees the summary.Range, effort, reps, pain.

Between visits you can see whether the heel rose to the target you set, whether the calf stayed on while it lengthened, and what pain the patient entered.

  • A code, not your name.
  • Targets are set by your physio.
  • App version and algorithm version on every session.

Same exercise

Four short rounds.Points from counted rises.

The games use the same sensors and the same targets. Rising past the target does not add points.

Questions

Plain answers.Before you start.

Does Voimeli diagnose anything?

No. Voimeli records home exercise and displays it for a physiotherapist to review. It does not diagnose or give medical advice.

Who sets the targets?

Your physiotherapist. How many reps, how high the heel should rise, and how long the lower should take. Voimeli shows those targets and does not change them.

What does my physio see?

A short summary after each session: the exercise, counted reps, the heel rise next to the target, calf effort compared with your other leg, and the pain score you entered. They see a code such as P-017, not your name.

Which exercise does it support today?

The seated calf raise, with sensors on the shin, the foot, and the calf. Quadriceps and glutes are the next pattern.

What if it hurts?

You score pain from 0 to 10 after the session. Pain of 8 or more, or a red-flag symptom, stops the exercise and points you to your clinic, or to 112.
