1. A linear and circular movement system, comprising:
- a limb-activated, linearly and circularly moveable apparatus comprisingi) a gripping device adapted for gripping by a limb;
ii) a rotatable platform connected to the gripping device, the platform being rotatable by a first movement of the limb with the limb gripping the gripping device;
iii) a pivoting element connected to said platform; and
iv) a sliding base connected to said pivoting element, the base slideable across a contacted surface, the base being slideable by a second movement of the limb with the limb gripping the gripping device,wherein by the first and second movements of the limb with the limb gripping the gripping device actuates the platform and base to realize both linear and circular motion of the apparatus with respect to the contacted surface.

Abstract
A method and system for performing linear and circular movement patterns is provided. The method and the system include a limb-activated linearly and circularly moveable apparatus comprising a rotatable platform coupled to a slideable base. A limb gripping the apparatus can slide the apparatus across a surface while rotating the platform. The apparatus is designed to constantly realign the joints involved in the movements and without straining the joints of the body to maximize productivity and promote joint comfort.
