More about AMADEO by Tyromotion

The AMADEO is the most advanced robotic-assisted finger-hand therapy device world-wide and is the very latest in a long row of clinically tried and tested robotic and computer-assisted therapy devices for the hand, fingers and thumb. 


The AMADEO's unique design and the specially developed tyroS software makes the AMADEO a popular choice for hospitals and clinics across the world and in the UK at The National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery, Stoke Mandeville Spinal Unit and MOTIONrehab's Intensive Neurological Rehabilitation Centre.


The AMADEO offers a flexible and wide range of therapy options for the hand, fingers and thumb.


More about DIEGO by Tyromotion

DIEGO is the most advanced and most versatile arm-shoulder rehabilitation device worldwide.

Intelligent gravity compensation, robotics and virtual reality facilitate the often difficult training to regain lost arm motor function uni and bilaterally.


Diego relieves the therapist and the patient of the difficult motion guidance of the arms. Because of its overhead construction, DIEGO is easily accessible from all sides and thus offer space for a qualitative therapy of arm-and shoulder motor function.


With DIEGO, you have room for motion, which is why the arm-shoulder rehabilitation device is particularly suited for task-oriented training with real objects. However, DIEGO doesn’t only offer more room for therapy but also more freedom. The intelligent gravity compensation (IGC) makes heavy arms lighter and allows physiological movement of the arms in all stages of rehabilitation.


Be they passive, assistive, or active applications, the DIEGO can be adapted to the individual needs of each patient. Easily and quickly.

In January this year, Neurotherapy Worx in Wigan took delivery of the D-Wall by TecnoBody. Neurotherapy Worx is a specialist team of Adult and Paediatric Therapists based in a fully accessible clinic in Appley Bridge. Neurotherapy Worx offers both clinic and home-based rehabilitation. Over the last two months Neurotherapy Worx have been integrating the D-Wall into their everyday clinic. This short article shares their experiences so far. Has it been easy to integrate D-Wall within your everyday clinic practice? The D-Wall has been easy to integrate into clinic. It has been used during initial assessments, integrated into treatment plans and formal reviews. It enables us to undertake specific assessments and see change over time in patients’ abilities. How easy is the D-Wall to use with regards to patient set up? The D-Wall is very quick to set up once you have created a profile with a client’s date of birth, weight and height recorded. However, it is also possible to try different activities with an adult client without creating a profile. If you spend time in the Monitor facility so that the client understands how their foot position, their upper body and centre of gravity impacts the D-wall, this makes using the other settings, exercises, games more effective during the assessment and treatment process. How are you using D-Wall in clinic? We are using the D-Wall in many different ways! Therapy ·It is really useful for people with one sided weakness. They can visually see their alignment and work actively to try and correct this (previously we would verbally give feedback and facilitate). Good for strengthening and gaming afterwards. D-Wall is good at finding things we would not necessarily pick up on or see. It’s like an extra pair of eyes. We are working with patients and adapting things all the time. Constantly adapting and adjusting the movements. Can be used for a specific part of the session or for the whole treatment session. Trunk control. Balance – within and out of base of support. Look at specific motor control of a specific limb; or address gross motor control. Good to work on balance and trunk control whilst carrying out a more functional / meaningful activity. Engaging children and adults in repetitive movements or using the less dominant limb. Bilateral arm movements. Improve cardiovascular system in a safe supported environment. Muscle strengthening. Use neglected limb. With treadmill. With parallel bars. Using therapy ball for seated activities/games. Assessment and Reporting Standardised, repeatable fitness and health tests The data from D-Wall makes our reports a lot more accurate.
