The rehabilitation training is the key process for restoring the normal physiological functions
for patients. The rehabilitation robot has been developed for the reason that it can help …

Ankle injuries are amongst the most common musculoskeletal injuries. The necessity of
prevention measurements before or an early rehabilitation start after an injury, is essential …

Continuous passive motion (CPM) machines are used in the rehabilitation of members that
have been injured to recover their range of motion and prevent stiffness. Nowadays, some …

An ankle sprain can be caused by daily activities such as running, walking, or playing sports.
