Surprised by the title? Yes, its true. Doctors are using Nintendo WII to improve the health condition of patients(patients think it as a source of entertainment, but doctors know it's for therapy). The secret of WII lies in the very motion sensitive sensors that requires a lot of body movements. These body movements actually exercises their muscles(looks like WII extends beyond just gaming). while paying, people have to stretch their muscles and respond quickly thus the patients exercise both there mind and body( the best part is people really enjoy this therapy).
Doctors call this process 'WIIHABLITATION', Usually doctors find it difficult to motivate their patients to exercise on a regular basis. Now they are really amazed by the commitment of the patients to get well (thanks to the gaming addiction). I wish doctors in India too would try this.
