Armeo: Rheinburg-Klinik. Walzenhaussen, Switzerland
“I can’t overemphasize how important it is that the effort with the Armeo is self-initiated. In hands-on therapy, the initiation often comes from the therapist. With the Armeo, it’s coming from the patient’s own brain.”
Louise Rutz-LaPitz, PT Director of Therapy and Training
