PHYSIO-TECH strives for the development of a therapeutic device which meets, in accordance with the underwater treadmill for dogs, the requirements of a medical device for humans. Equipped with a glass-enclosed walk-in the medical staff can observe the movements of the patient and the training effect can be controlled individually. Pre-programmed plans are also available. With the help of sensors and specifically developed software the desired weight of the patient during treatment can be adjusted. And with its minimal space requirements the underwater treadmill for humans is easily integrated into the existing practices.
