PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an upper-extremity motor function recovery device capable of applying a plurality of stimuli to the nervous system and providing effective training without imposing an excessive burden on a patient in the bending/stretching exercises of the upper extremities.SOLUTION: The motor function recovery device causes the forearm of a patient with the hemiplegia to bend/stretch with respect to the upper arm so as to assist the recovery of the motor function. The motor function recovery device includes: a plate body that is supported so as to freely reciprocate in a prescribed direction within a substantially horizontal plane, with the levelness of a principal plane retained and on which the forearm is placed; and a holding member that, when the forearm is placed on the plate body, holds the forearm. When the forearm placed on the plate body is moved forward substantially to move the plate body, the holding member is moved in the moving direction of the plate body such that an amount of movement of the holding member is increased more than an amount of movement of the plate body. Subsequently, the upper arm is pressed in the direction of the forearm. |
