Examples of a self-supported device for guiding motions of a target joint of a target body are disclosed. The device comprises a motion generator, a
motion transfer system, a target body
interfacing system, a
load bearing system and a controller. The
load bearing system comprises a plate connected to the
motion transfer system and a network of joints and links configured to constrain the plate to rotate in three dimensions about a center of rotation of the
load bearing system. A position of the center of rotation of the load bearing system being adjustable by adjusting a connection point between the links. The plate of the load bearing system is connected to an adjustable target body
interfacing system that is configured to be mounted to the target body. The center of rotation of the load bearing system coincides (or nearly coincides) with a center of rotation of the target joint of the target body.
