Robot Trainer was first launched on November 11, 2013 by Phyathai 1 Hospital. It is an intelligent physical therapy robot designed to treat paralysis from diseases of the brain, spinal cord, bones, and muscles. Helps increase the efficiency of physical therapy, especially walking training and the movement of the hands and arms of patients with paralysis, which includes

• Walking training system
• body weight support system
• intelligent computer system 

With the robot trainer system that can control the speed of walking. Therefore, helping patients practice walking skills and how to place your feet correctly, consistently, and every time including a patient support system that can support a weight of more than a hundred kilograms. So it can prevent injuries or reduce the chance of accidents especially for patient falls. In addition, the robot trainer can be used for physical therapy for patients after joint replacement surgery and patients with other abnormal nervous system conditions such as Parkinson’s disease, brain fog, etc.

Continuous physical Connecting the body and brain

Continuity in physical therapy is an important thing that allows patients to return to movement faster. This means that patients must be repeatedly taught how to move correctly. To stimulate the control of various organs of the body that receive direct commands from the brain. Therefore, physical therapy for paralyzed patients is not just training how to move the body alone. But you have to refresh new skills in the brain to be ready to perform commands. The functions of the robot trainer are as follows:

• Robot Trainer’s gait training system provides correct walking characteristics, such as body alignment and foot and heel alignment. including the frequency of walking using a highly accurate system Therefore, it helps restore the muscle function of patients with paralysis or abnormalities of the brain, spinal cord, bones, and muscles effectively.
• Intelligent computer system with a program that interacts with patients in real time and shows the patient’s progress each day. With a system for checking, tracking, and comparing training results honestly and the virtual image simulation function makes patients feel like they are walking in different places helps patients walk longer Including training in moving objects in virtual reality. This allows patients to use their arm and hand strength to do their daily activities efficiently. Also Helps increase motivation for continuous physical training. which has the effect of stimulating the sensory system and restoring the patient’s movement skills in the future.

The more you intend to do physical therapy, the faster the paralysis will go!

Research has found that patients with leg muscle weakness, which is caused by a cerebrovascular disease (stroke) that causes injury to the brain and spinal cord, if patients are rehabilitated “correctly” and “regularly,” it will stimulate the recovery of the abnormal nervous system more efficiently.
