Recently Sue Stanley-Green, a professor in athletic training  has stated …

“We are looking to incorporate Wii Fit into the athletic training room as far as rehabilitation, for example, on post-operative knees and ankles”.

Thats a cool athletic trainer.

In all seriousness.  I have worked with a lot of post-rehab clients in the past and getting them to do any type of balance related movements is like pulling teeth.

I’m sure a lot of stuffy old school athletic trainers will scoff at this type of method claiming that rehab needs to follow specific guidelines in order to remain effective.  But in the end, you can have the most effective rehab program in existence but it wont do jack if people aren’t doing the work because they are bored out of their minds.

I’m curious as to what other people think.
