Abstract

The invention is a rocker for therapeutic treatment of a user by control of actuators in the rocker and sensing biometric and mechanical conditions of and around the user. The rocker may be formed of a unitary body of translucent or transparent material. The body of the chair features a single tail floor engagement portion and a user area of seat and back. The rocker may have actuators mounted in or near the rocker to generate heat, sound, vibration or light, Sensors in and around the chair monitor movement of the rocker and biometric conditions of the user. A control panel in communication with the actuator and sensors controls and monitors conditions and communicates with a monitoring computer for storage and reporting. Predetermined patterns of actuator activation may be programmed into the computer for transmission and execution by the control panel.
