Ottobock Virtual Symposium for Healthcare Professionals.
NeuroMobility in Clinical Practice - Insights on the exopulse suit.
Join us for an insightful online symposium on November 10th, 2026 from 16:00 - 17:30 CET highlighting clinical experiences with the Exopulse Mollii Suit in neurorehabilitation.
The "NeuroMobility in Clinical Practice - Insights on the exopulse suit." symposium will cover the following key topics by renowned experts:
Insights on the Exopulse Mollii Suit in Rehabilitation: Gain valuable insights into clinical experiences with the Exopulse Mollii Suit in pediatric and adult neurological populations - Explore its impact on trunk control in individuals with cerebral palsy, functional improvements in people with multiple sclerosis, and the importance of assessment tools that incorporate patient perspectives, device acceptance and treatment compliance.
Innovation Meets Evolution: Explore the next generation of the exopulse suit and its clinical application in individuals with multiple sclerosis - Gain an overview of neuromodulation concepts, the rationale behind whole-body stimulation, and practical experiences from clinical use. Particular focus will be placed on the concept of a temporary functional window and its potential relevance for rehabilitation and participation in everyday life.
Insights from Clinical Practice: Gain valuable insights into clinical experiences with the Exopulse Mollii Suit in outpatient rehabilitation from Poland. Discover unexpected patient responses and learn how outcome measures can be used to document clinical change.
Don't miss this opportunity to stay at the forefront of clinical research and innovation in neurorehabilitation. Explore real-world applications in pediatric and adult neurological populations, patient-centered outcomes, and innovative developments in neurorehabilitation. Together, we can enhance patient care, support participation and functional outcomes, and continue driving progress in the field.

Konrad Slobodzian, MSc, PT
Physiotherapist, Co-owner & Managing Director, NZOZ PROVITA, Poland
Practical Application of the Exopulse Mollii Suit in Outpatient Physiotherapy.
Konrad Slobodzian is a physiotherapist and co-owner of NZOZ PROVITA, a family-run medical center in Boleslawiec, Poland, operating since 1994 and serving patients across Lower Silesia. He graduated from the University School of Physical Education (AWF) in Wroclaw, has practiced for over ten years, and treats patients weekly alongside his management work.
He served as a delegate to the 2nd National Congress of Physiotherapists in Poland. PROVITA holds National Health Fund (NFZ) contracts for rehabilitation and medical supply, has delivered pilot programs for the Ministry of Health and the NFZ, and hosts scientific meetings and conferences. He is also part of a research team studying neurodynamic techniques in patients with acute presentations.
PROVITA has been an Ottobock partner for many years and is a certified Exopulse Mollii provider. Working within the clinical standards developed by Ottobock, his team has implemented and field-tested them in routine outpatient practice, building repeatable workflows for patient selection, outcome monitoring and financing within the Polish reimbursement system. His guiding principle in applying them: no device recommendation without documented clinical effect at follow-up.
For most patients he treats, the suit is an addition to conventional physiotherapy. For a smaller group, such as patients with a spastic hand, it is what makes grip training possible at all.
