I’m not sure if I’ve ever mentioned that I’m a geek on this site other than describing my profession on my about me page, but if I haven’t here it goes. I’m a Grade 1, A Prime, full fledged geek. I love new tech toys, twitter, and the internet. I’ve been a geek for as long as I can remember and I’ll be a geek to the day I die. The funny thing is now it’s cool to be a geek and so now I’m sheek too 8). <---- See told you I was a geek. If your interested in my geekyness read my other blog at MetzgerBusiness.

Well I just saw a new technology that provides gate training to CP patients using a robot. I’m not kidding when I say this, I’ve actually had dreams about a contraptions like this. Here are a few videos that show the machine and explain how it works. This is a fairly new therapy so I don’t have much more information then what is provided in the video. I also want to thank fellow blogger and twitterer @CPparent for bringing this story to my attention.


I’ve also uploaded the product spec page for anyone who is interested in reading the details. You can find it here.
