Summit Medical and Scientific exhibiting at Therapy Expo 2018

We are thrilled to return to Therapy Expo! Find us at Stand TE40 in the exhibition area.

Hosted at the NEC in Birmingham from the 21-22nd November, we will be representing our partners at AMTI, Hocoma, Motek and Myon EMG. Whether you are looking for state-of-the-art robotic neuro rehabilitation solutions, precise force plate technology, or market-leading wireless EMG/ACC/IMU sensors, make sure you check out our stand.

At the show we are demonstrating the C-Mill VR, an augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) instrumented treadmill. The system is used for the evaluation and training of impaired gait and balance, allowing for adaptability therapy in a safe and controlled environment. The C-Mill has optional integrated body weight support, for those patients who are unable to stand unsupported. Developed by Motek and now distributed by Hocoma, the treadmill uses visual and acoustic cues projected onto the treadmill belt and displayed on the front screen, such as stepping stones or obstacle avoidance tasks. It also uses many game applications and virtual environments to provide motivation and challenges for patients in an immersive environment as they recover their stability and gait.

We are also pleased to be joined by Mike Jones, UK C-Mill Ambassador and a regular user of the C-Mill at the Morrello Clinic in Newport, South Wales. Mike will be demonstrating the C-Mill at our stand on the show floor. You can read Mike’s testimonial for the C-Mill here, and read a recent research paper published by the Morrello Clinic about the C-Mill here.

We look forward to meeting the physiotherapists, sports therapists, osteopaths and rehabilitation specialists who will be visiting the show!
