- Paralysis or paresis in both upper extremities
- At least 4 months (120 days) and less than 96 months (2,920 days) post traumatic SCI
- Baseline SCIM-SC ≤ 10
- From an inpatient or outpatient care setting
- Able to understand and follow instructions

(Note: If the participant has passive metallic implants, the therapy can be delivered if the implants are located in an area other than where the electrical stimulant is to be delivered.)
- Complete denervation of muscles that are targeted by MyndMove such that MyndMove is unable to elicit tetanic muscle contraction when upper limits of stimulation intensity for the targeted muscle are applied

- Active drug treatment for dementia
- Life expectancy of less than 12 months due to other illness
- In the judgment of the medical provider, the participant has medical complications that may interfere with the execution of the study
- Currently enrolled in another upper limb study and/ or has received MyndMove Therapy within the past 3 months
- Enrolled, in the past six months, in a clinical study involving drugs or biologics
- Currently dependent on a ventilator
- Botulinum toxin injection into affected upper extremity and the muscle targeted by MyndMove® therapy within 6 months prior to the study start. No botulinum toxin injections in the upper extremity during the study treatment and follow up period
- Females who are pregnant or planning to become pregnant in the duration of the trial
- Regional disorder of the upper extremities such as fracture, dislocation, or joint contractures to less than 50% of the expected range of motion
