Armeo Therapy Concept (by Hocoma)
The Armeo Therapy Concept is a sustainable and powerful therapy concept comprising a modular line of three Armeo devices: ArmeoPower, ArmeoSpring and ArmeoSenso, which address different patient and therapeutic needs in different stages of the rehabilitationproces from acute rehabilitation to final outpatient sessions.
Purpose
Improving the efficiency of therapy treatments through exercises that are self-initiated, self-directed, functional and intense. The Augmented Performance Feedback provided by the shared software platform, encourages and motivates patients to achieve a higher number of repetitions, and this leads to better, faster results and improved long-term outcomes. Even severely impaired patients can practice independently, without the constant presence of a therapist, allowing patients to exploit their full potential for recovery.
