Introducing The Neubie Device
The Neubie device, standing for "Neuro-Bio-Electric Stimulator," is a groundbreaking approach to rehabilitation and performance enhancement. Utilising direct current (DC) to offer targeted stimulation, the Neubie promotes faster healing, pain reduction, and strength improvements. FDA-cleared and backed by science, it delivers visible results swiftly, revolutionising how we approach physical recovery and conditioning.
The NeuFit Method: A Comprehensive Approach
Beyond the Neubie device, we've developed the NeuFit Method, drawing on neuroplasticity's transformative potential to optimiSe recovery and performance. This comprehensive training ensures practitioners unlock the Neubie's full capabilities, leading to safe and effective outcomes. Explore our innovative approach in "The NeuFit Method" by Garrett Salpeter, detailing our impact on rehab and performance training.
A THREE-STEP PROCESS TO ENHANCED HEALING
How the Neubie Works
At the core of Neubie’s success is a strategic three-step process: Identify, Reset, Breakthrough. This methodical approach ensures comprehensive neuromuscular re-education and unlocking of the body's healing potential:
Identify
Our process begins with a comprehensive body mapping to pinpoint the areas where the nervous system is restricting movement and muscle function. Using the Neubie device, we apply electricity-conducting pads along nerve pathways to detect these limitations, often feeling intensely sensitive to the patient like a trigger point.
Reset
After identifying limiting patterns, we reset them using manual muscle activation techniques, targeted electrical stimulation, and specific exercises. This process recalibrates the nervous system, adjusting overprotective reflexes to appropriate levels without eliminating necessary self-protection mechanisms.
Breakthrough
By restoring function to muscles and tissues, we overcome barriers that typically hinder the healing process, enhancing the body’s recovery. This process helps patients access their full range of motion, strength, and capacity for pain-free movement that was previously dormant due to limiting neurological patterns.

The Neubie Impact
Be inspired by real-life transformations achieved through Neubie. These testimonials span from dramatic recoveries to notable performance enhancements, illustrating the profound effects Neubie can have across various applications.
As a manual therapist, I use different techniques to try to modulate pain, improve ROM, and try to up-regulate muscle activation patterns. Using the Neubie gives me a new avenue to talk directly to the nervous system of my patients and make these changes faster. It's a wonderful complement.

When I was debilitated from back pain after a mishap on a 25-foot jump, the Neubie helped me right away. That injury turned out to be a blessing, because now I have one in my clinic and use it with as many patients as possible.
David Woodward, PT, DPT
Owner of Na'au Pono Physical Therapy
Neufit has become a staple within our toolkit to offer the best possible care to our athletes. Quickly modulating pain and influencing motor control has helped our athletes prepare for training on a daily basis in a way that other technologies haven't been able to match.

I'm always looking for game changers in physical therapy that make an immediate impact on our patient outcomes. The first real game changer I found was the manual osteopathic techniques that I have used for 20+ years and now teach at Michigan State University in the College of Osteopathic Medicine. The next one has definitely been the Neubie!
Lisa Chase, PT
Owner of Back 2 Normal Physical Therapy
Within about 45 days, we had nearly 50% of our patients using the Neubie. That's when we decided to move from the lease to purchasing the unit. At the same time we also purchased a second unit to use at our second location.
Edward St.Clair, PT, DPT, CHT
Director, West Park Rehab Physical Therapy
Not only has the Neubie resulted in patients seeing improvements in function and a reduction in pain much faster than our previously manually driven treatment approach, our therapists don't have to physically work as hard and are more enthusiastic with delivery of care as improvements are substantially greater in less time. The use of this innovative technology has patients unsolicitedly marketing for us and has been instrumental in attracting forward thinking students for clinical affiliations and recruiting additional staff that align with the culture of our business.
Jacqui Broering
Owner of Performance Physical Therapy & Wellness
I brought the Neubie into my practice in January 2018. I quickly went from one Neubie to three. By the end of 2018, my practice had 94 percent more revenue than my previous year.
Jason Waz, PT
Owner of Competitive Edge Physical Therapy
I appreciate everything I've been able to do with my neuro patients, including spasticity management, reducing pain, autonomic improvements, and a variety of functional improvements
Krystina Miller, PT, DPT
Owner of Matrx Health & Fitness
NeuFit has really helped us in building our business around athletes. In addition to using the Neubie in our PT practice, we've hired a strength and conditioning coach who uses the Neubie on the performance side, so now we're able to expand our scope to serve patients all the way from the rehabilitation side through to elite sports performance, using NeuFit throughout that whole continuum.

I tell practice owners to find the thing that is going to make them stand out, to make them look like a zebra and not like all the other brown horses. When I first experienced the Neubie, I knew it would be one of those true differentiators. And for the practice owners I work with, it's impacted their outcomes, their overall quality and brand, and their revenue.

It depends on the situation. Harnessing the NEUBIE’s capacity for neuromuscular re-education, the NeuFit System has helped some people recover from these challenges in order to restore function. In some cases that recovery has meant slight increases in balance, movement, or the ability to complete activities of daily living. In a few cases it has been as dramatic as helping people get out of wheelchairs and walk again. There are many factors that affect a person’s recovery potential, so unfortunately NeuFit will not be helpful in all cases. If you or someone you know is dealing with one of these challenges, we encourage you to reach out to us or your local NeuFit Practitioner directly to discuss your situation.
Although the Neubie device is not indicated to treat M.S., the NeuFit System has been able to help some people with M.S. manage their symptoms and improve quality of life. The NEUBIE device is able to reduce spasms, increase range of motion, improve circulation, prevent atrophy, and provide neuromuscular re-education. With the NeuFit protocols, this combination has enabled some people with M.S. to improve function, become more mobile, and return to activities that had become challenging or impossible. Please take a look at the webpage for Dr. Terry Wahls in order to find more information.
Well, it depends. Fortunately, the NeuFit System is able to help most of the people who use it. Coupled with the NEUBIE device’s ability to re-educate muscles, increase blood flow, improve range of motion, prevent atrophy, decrease spasms, and relieve or manage pain, the NeuFit system has helped many people recover from sports injuries and various traumas and surgeries. Of course there are times when therapy and rehab strategies aren’t enough, and more serious interventions are necessary. If something is completely torn, for example, surgery may be the best solution. The good news is that NeuFit is non-invasive and very safe. Because of the low risks, it is often worth trying as a conservative strategy before considering more serious and invasive interventions like surgery and injections.
The NEUBIE is FDA-cleared and TGA-approved (ARTG ID 421852) and considered safe as long as it is used within the appropriate guidelines. For example, it is contraindicated for people who have a pacemaker or are pregnant. There are other situations in which practitioners should exercise caution.
