Therapeutic technologies in rehabilitation include advanced tools that enhance recovery, such as virtual reality (VR), robotic devices, and neurofeedback systems. VR environments can simulate real-world scenarios, allowing patients to practice movements and build confidence. Robotic-assisted therapy provides targeted exercises for stroke recovery and spinal injuries, enabling precise movements that might not be achievable otherwise. Neurofeedback helps regulate brain function and is especially useful in neurological rehabilitation. These technologies create interactive, engaging treatment options that increase motivation and improve therapy adherence. By integrating therapeutic technology, rehabilitation becomes more efficient, personalized, and aligned with each patient's needs.
