Moody Neurorehabilitation Institute

What Moody Neurorehabilitation Institute does

Moody Neurorehabilitation Institute is a private 501(c)(3) non-profit post-acute brain injury rehabilitation provider founded in 1982 by Robert L. Moody Sr. in Galveston, Texas, originally as the Transitional Learning Center. The organization operates three Texas campuses — Space Center (Houston/Nassau Bay, opened 2023, ~64,000 sq ft, 40 residential beds), Lubbock (opened 2008, residential/outpatient/aquatic), and Tideway (Galveston, 32-bed long-term supported living facility on ~3.5 acres). Service offerings span residential post-acute rehabilitation (average LOS 45–90 days, 4–5 hours of daily therapy), outpatient neurorehabilitation, long-term supported living, and respite care. Clinical programs include neuropsychology and counseling, speech and language therapy, physical therapy, occupational therapy, aquatic therapy, community integration, and a spinal cord injury program.

The technology stack is built around advanced rehabilitation robotics and functional electrical stimulation rather than AI/ML: Hocoma Lokomat for robotic gait training, ZeroG and Bioness Vector for body-weight–supported gait and balance, Armeo Power for robotic arm therapy, Bioness L300 Go and H200 for functional electrical stimulation, MYRO by Tyromotion as an interactive biofeedback surface, Moveo XP for weight-bearing exercise, and an in-house driving simulator for community reintegration practice. Moody Neuro is CARF-accredited and supplements direct care with clinical research partnerships (Northwestern University on post-concussion neuromodulation; UTMB-Galveston on gut-brain axis prebiotics) funded through The Moody Endowment.

The business model is sales-led, driven by clinical referrals from hospitals, rehabilitation facilities, physicians, case managers, and insurance adjusters, with a structured intake process (referral → insurance verification → clinical liaison → facility tour → medical director approval). Payers include private health insurance/managed care, workers' compensation, HHSC & Comprehensive Rehabilitation Services (CRS), Texas Workforce Commission, and self-pay (with a $300 admission deposit). Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. Headcount is in the 101–250 range, with approximately 150 staff at the Space Center facility alone, and FY 2024–2025 program data reports 106 discharges alongside strong satisfaction metrics (94% discharged to home, 90% family referral likelihood).
