PROCEDURES AND PREPARATION FOR THE TRAINING OF DEVELOPING OR NEUROLOGICAL INTERESTED PERSONS

摘要

An exercise assistive device to help a developmentally developed person, such as a child (70) or neurologically impaired person, develop vestibular balance and muscle control, so that the child can learn to perform mobility activities, such as crawling, sitting upright, standing or walking. The device includes a support frame supporting a body suit (60) that is moved longitudinally, and optionally transversely and rotationally. The body suit is optionally suspended from either a hand-held frame, like a marionette, or from a floor-mounted, wall-mounted or ceiling mounted frame with a glidable support dolly. Flexible connector straps (71) are provided between the body suit and body glidable support dolly and made of a material such as reinforced fabric, elastic or canvas. These connector straps are positioned in spaced-apart relation to one another about the body suit. The body suit is suspended from the seat-support leg by the connector straps that extend between the body suit and the fasteners.
