Therapeutic Motion Stimulation is a novel way to combine therapy and entertainment.
Combining therapy with entertainment, Vita Care uses a special chair that, when a patient sits in it, sends out stimulation and vibrations synchronized to a video of outdoor activities such as horseback riding, jet skiing, motorcycling or Zumba dancing. There are more than a thousand videos, each triggering a unique series of vibrations and sensations matched to a number of physical activities.
