Purpose: of this paper is to presents a method of interactive rehabilitation based on a mechatronic system supporting psychomotor rehabilitation of children with lower limbs dysfunction. Design/methodology/approach: The method is grounded on stimulation of senses through image and sound. To achieve this purpose one used modern multimedia solutions in conjunction with an intelligent controlling system. The system controls the degree of the set rehabilitation load as well as measures the child’s concentration. Findings: The proposed method is a kind of contemporary physiotherapy which combines traditional cyclotherapy and stimulation of the child’s intellectual development by means of Glenn Doman’s improvement method or with the use of music therapy depending on the degree of the child’s intellectual development. Therapeutic activities undertaken with the use of the developed equipment may in the case of paresis or paralysis restore the action of the muscles by improving their elasticity or increasing their ability to react to stimulation of the nervous system. Research limitations/implications: The combination of movement therapy with psychological stimulation enables the children to use their abilities more efficiently and speeds up the rehabilitation process. Practical implications: The application of the equipment in question increases efficiency of the therapists’ and parents’ actions, being at the same time a vital element supporting the laborious and painstaking process of rehabilitation of little patients. Originality/value: The method consists in movement therapy combined with simultaneous psychological stimulation of the child.
