Rehabilitation

"We have been experimenting with virtual reality at Motol Hospital and the 2nd Medical Faculty of Charles University for many years. In the context of diagnostics, it allows us to induce situations that cannot be easily induced by existing means. In addition, the patient can rehabilitate in their own environment, at home or in the ward where they are hospitalised."

"Both adult and pediatric patients with neurological and orthopedic diagnoses tried virtual reality. By performing appropriately chosen tasks, we were able to target the therapy to a specific movement deficit that needed to be improved. Very beneficial for us is the feedback, which allows us to compare individual exercises and evaluate the results and success of the therapy."

"We have combined virtual reality and the multisensory environment of the snoezelen so that the client is activated, stimulated and relieved of stress. The great advantage of virtual reality is the accurate measurement of values - for example, maintaining the client's attention or changes in reaction times, which we had no way to measure accurately before."

"Cooperation with VR medical in the field of medical rehabilitation allows patients to return to normal life faster."

"The experience so far is beyond expectations. Patients are completely absorbed by the story and the virtual world. They perform tasks with enthusiasm, overcome their limits in range of motion and are motivated. A great benefit is also the shifting of the pain perception threshold during exercise."
