ABSTRACT:
A track for cognitive and physical training has a figure-eight surface with both or alternate inner and outer borders. Adjustable weight-bearing rails inside and outside the track assist rehabilitation. Gates in outer rails admit users to the track. Oppositely swinging gates at a center of track between the two loops provide supported direction from one track loop to another. Coordinated walking with bodily rotation and turning is promoted by a single off track focus point in a plane through the center separating the two loops. Increased motor, sensory, cognitive and other challenges are added to the walking, turning and lateral rotation.
