The MediTouch LegTutor physical therapy product has been developed to allow for functional and fine motor rehabilitation of the lower extremity. The system consists of an ergonomic wearable leg brace and dedicated physical therapy rehabilitation software. The LegTutor system allows for a range of biomechanical evaluation including speed, passive and active range of motion and motion analysis of the lower extremity. Quantitative bio-mechanical data allow for objective evaluation and physical therapy treatment follow up.
The LegTutor physical therapy product is based on performing controlled exercise rehabilitation. LegTutor provides physical therapy rehabilitation at a patient customized level with real time accurate feedback on the patient’s performance. The physical therapy exercises are designed in the form of challenging games that are suitable for a wide variety of neurological and orthopedic injury and disease. The physical therapy exercises challenge the patient to perform the exercise task to their best ability and to continue exercise practice while the LegTutor monitors and reports improvement.
The LegTutor allows for isolated and a combination of knee and three directional hip physical therapy treatment. The system provides detailed exercise instructions and precise feedback on the patients exercise performance and improvement. Controlled physical therapy of multijoints within the normal movement pattern prevents the development of undesired and compensatory joint movement and ensures better performance of functional tasks. The LegTutor system is used by many leading rehabilitation centers worldwide and has full FDA and CE certification.
