I demonstrate how the spasticity in my legs work. A lot of people assume that if you're paralysed, your legs should be flaccid and are often surprised when they see my legs move and think it is a voluntary movement.
There are pros and cons to the spasticity, but keeping them under control is a full time job! They mostly hinder me from doing things easily, and relaxing can be difficult, but they do keep my legs firing, which helps with muscle atrophy and circulation.
Also, they motivate me to move! When I'm idle, they punish me, and, being quite a lazy person, I try to see it more of a gift than a curse. Of course sometimes I wish they'd go away and leave me alone, just like my SCI, but you gotta live with it and make the most of it.
Hope you find this video helpful.
My injury is T11 incomplete since January 2019
