This story is a great example of the Wii being used in therapy. Seacroft Hospital in Leeds (UK) is using Wii Fit to help new amputees get to grips with their new prosthetic limbs. The Wii Fit balance board and games allow the new amputees to see the effect on their centre of gravity as they move their weight around, helping them to improve their balance.
