Automated therapy table for treating lower extremities and method therefor

InactiveUS20100313897A1Operating chairsChiropractic devicesLeg elevationPassive exercises
An automated therapy table is disclosed. The automated therapy table may have various support portions capable of independent automatic actuation of a person's lower extremities through passive exercise. The automated therapy table allows a patient to perform leg elevation, approximation / decompression of the leg, internal / external rotation of the leg, ankle plantar flexion / dorsiflexion, and foot inversion / eversion movements. During each movement, the patient may be instructed to think in the direction of the movement. It has been found that doing so helps increase the healing effects. The disclosed table and method may be beneficial for patients after certain operations as well as for those suffering from various forms of debilitating illnesses, such as Multiple Sclerosis, Charcot-Marie-Tooth, and Muscular Dystrophy.
