Performance Health Technologies, Inc. is a developer and marketer of performance evaluation and rehabilitation products that provide in-depth monitoring and guide exercises by using real-time motivational feedback. The company’s versatile proprietary technology platform, MotionTrack™, tracks and monitors movement in real-time, providing instant visual feedback to the user.
Performance Health has developed a revolutionary computer program called Core:Tx®. This computer program provides motivational, therapy-based activities that can be done in one’s home, eliminating numerous trips to the offices of a healthcare professional. By utilizing the patent-pending MotionTrack™ technology, users are guided through a series of pre-set exercises, which stroke survivors, for example, can use as part of the rehabilitation process from the comfort of their own homes. The exercises can be done using the affected arm or leg, and were designed by physical and occupational therapists to help a stroke survivor restore previous strength and range of motion.
As patients perform these exercises, visual feedback and motivational information is relayed back to them via a wireless sensor. Performance Health intends on expanding development and continuing research involving this product line, which will include allowing patients to stay connected with their therapist or fitness professional via the Internet, and enabling them to perform more customized routines.
