Rehabilitative exoskeletons are used as part of robot-assisted therapy, which allows patients with motion impairments to train unused muscles and regain brain–muscle connection. This is typically performed under the constant supervision of a rehabilitation therapist, but some recent devices have been developed for independent, at-home use. 3, record 1, English, - rehabilitation%20exoskeleton
