A device for spine rehabilitation comprising a support frame, immovable crossbars, movable crossbars, and a holder and systems of actuators supporting a patient's head, shoulders, hip, knees, and feet , characterised in that it is equipped with linear actuators (8) mounted to the holder (7) supporting the patient's head and shoulders, whereby the holder (7) has a driving mechanism (9) situated horizontally and mounted to an immovable crossbar (6) of the support frame (1) and in its lower part is rotationally mounted, at the rotation point (10) of the holder, to the immovable crossbar (6). A method for spine rehabilitation using the device for lateral deviation of the patient's torso, whereby the patient's body situated horizontally, face up, is lifted on eight sling hangers taking hold of his/her head and his/her back in the points of shoulder girdle and pelvis girdle.

An apparatus and method for training muscle strength and mobility in the neck provides a dynamic resting position without pressure on the neck, of a person when in lying position. The apparatus includes a base element, a head support suspended floating above the base element, and a neck support rising from the base element. The neck support provides a fulcrum that defines head movement to a pivoting motion about a first axis (X) which runs sideways substantially along the shoulder line of the body, a pivot connection between the head support and the base element defines head movement to a pivoting motion about a second axis (Y) transversely to the first axis, and by its floating suspension the head support defines head movement to a pivoting motion about a third axis (Z) running in the longitudinal direction of the neck and body.

A system and a method of treatment using a universal cage creating a coordinate method of exercise. Physical therapy or fitness exercises are provided to a patient through a system of cords, blocks and belts disposed on a plurality of grid panels through a plurality of mounting devices. Placement of the mounting devices on the grid panel is determined by which muscle groups are receiving therapy and the type of movement required. Once the placement for each movement is determined, the coordinates of the mounting device are captured so that the mounting devices can be preset consistently for each therapy session.

The present disclosure provides a traction device mountable on a vertical surface, such as a wall or door. The traction device can be adjusted by a user to alter the amount of tension applied to the user by a harness of the traction device.

The application presents a multi-posture lower limb rehabilitation robot, which includes a robot base and a training bed. The training bed comprises two sets of leg mechanisms, a seat, a seat width adjustment mechanism, a mechanism for adjusting the gravity center of human body, a back cushion, a weight support system and a mechanism for adjusting the back cushion angle. The robot base comprises a mechanism for adjusting the bed angle. The mechanisms for adjusting the angles of bed and back cushion can be used together to provide paralysis patients with multiple training modes of lying, sitting, and standing postures. Each leg mechanism comprises hip, knee, and ankle joints, which are driven by electric motors; angle and force sensors are installed on each joint, and can be used to identify patients' motion intention to provide patients with active and assistant training. The mechanism for adjusting the gravity center of human body, the leg mechanisms, and the weight support system can be used together to implement human natural walking gait to improve the training effect.

A system for physical rehabilitation is disclosed. The system may comprise a plurality of motors configured to be coupled to a ceiling; a plurality of cable portions, wherein each cable portion is connected at a first end to a motor and connected at a second end to a connector element; and a controller in operative communication with the plurality of motors to move the connector element in relation to a staircase.

The invention relates to an apparatus and method for unloading a user's body weight during a physical activity of said user, particularly for gait training of said user, comprising: a plurality of ropes, wherein each rope extends from an associated drive unit, is deflected by a passively displaceable deflection device, e.g. a device that is displaceable by means of the forces in the deflected ropes, and then runs to a first free end of the respective rope, and a node being coupled to said first free ends and being designed to be coupled to said user, wherein the drive units are designed to retract and release the respective rope so as to adjust a current rope force along the respective rope, which current rope forces add up to a current resulting force exerted on said user via said node in order to unload the user upon said physical activity.

An apparatus and method for training muscle strength and mobility in the neck, and providing a dynamic resting position without pressure on the neck, of a person when in lying position is disclosed. The apparatus includes a base element, a head support suspended floating above the base element, and a neck support rising from the base element. The neck support provides a fulcrum that defines head movement to a pivoting motion about a first axis (X) which runs sideways substantially along the shoulder line of the body, a pivot connection between the head support and the base element defines head movement to a pivoting motion about a second axis (Y) transversely to the first axis, and by its floating suspension the head support defines head movement to a pivoting motion about a third axis (Z) running in the longitudinal direction of the neck and body.

A walking training apparatus 1 includes a leg robot 2 attached to a leg of a walking trainee, a motor 261 configured to rotationally drive a knee joint 22 of the leg robot 2, a control unit 332 configured to control the motor 261 so that the motor 261 rotationally drives the knee joint 22 in a leg-idling period in a gait motion of the walking trainee, a motor torque detection unit 262 configured to detect a motor torque, the motor torque being a torque generated by the motor 261, and a determination unit 333 configured to determine whether or not the walking trainee is in a spasticity state or a rigidity state by using a value of the motor torque detected in the leg-idling period by the motor torque detection unit 262.
