Why integrate Virtual Reality in your treatments?
Virtual Reality has arrived to transform the way we treat pain and loss of function. Thanks to immersive and controlled environments, the patient no longer repeats exercises out of obligation, but becomes actively involved, motivated and progresses faster.
With Dynamics VR, you will be able to offer a personalized and effective rehabilitation experience, adapted to the functional level of each person.
Main clinical benefits of Virtual Reality
Learning of movements without pain
The immersive environment distracts from pain, allowing for exercises that were previously avoided due to fear or discomfort.
Customized and innovative rehabilitation
Difficulty levels are automatically adapted to the patient’s progress. This ensures that each session is helpful, safe and challenging.
Embodiment and neuroplasticity
By seeing his avatar move as if it were his own body, the patient activates key brain processes that favor neurological reorganization and motor relearning.
Real-time tracking and progress
Dynamics records parameters such as number of repetitions, joint range, execution speed or active time, allowing the therapist to make decisions based on objective data.
Safe and controlled environment
The work environment is stable, measurable and 100% adaptable to the patient’s capabilities, reducing the risk of falls or overexertion.
Improved emotional and psychological state
The combination of perceived success, active interaction and distraction generates improvements in the patient’s self-esteem, self-efficacy and mood.
Improved patient experience
VR rehabilitation doesn’t just relieve pain: it completely transforms the patient experience. By practicing meaningful activities in a virtual environment, a better transfer to daily life and a more functional recovery is achieved.
- Increased motivation and adherence
- Reduced perception of pain and anxiety
- Immediate feedback and tangible progress
- Total therapy customization
- Added psychological benefits
- Increased confidence in your body and capabilities
Musculoskeletal rehabilitation use cases
There are numerous patients who can benefit from the use of immersive virtual reality, especially those seeking to restore motor function and reduce musculoskeletal pain, such as:
- Pain reduction: Immersive distraction decreases pain perception and anxiety, even in patients with chronic pain (Sanchez-Herrero et al., 2022). This may lead to a decrease in the need for pain medication during therapy and a more tolerable and positive overall experience.
- Increased adherence: Gamified dynamics make the patient want to come back. This is key in long-term processes.
- Tangible clinical results: Improved strength, mobility, balance and functional capacity with better follow-up and less treatment abandonment.
