For Physiotherapists

An idea is born

One of the biggest questions a practitioner faces is; Are the patients actually doing their exercises? And if so, is it having the desired effect?

Today, the rehabilitation process often consists of home exercise combined with practitioner led training sessions. The occasional follow-up meetings make it hard to have a complete overview of the progress. So, let us talk RecoVR.

Practice made perfect

RecoVR from Curest is a digital rehabilitation tool developed with leading experts from Region Stockholm, Region Västerbotten and Danderyd Hospital.

As a practitioner, you receive daily performance stats from your RecoVR patients – training from home or at your facility.

– Easy-to-use interface
– Decision support
– Historical rehab data

Rehab can be sustainable

By encouraging patients to use VR as a rehab tool, they can become more independent, as they receive instructions and real time feedback in the program.

When working remotely, you will be able to help more patients at the same time as well as reducing transportation and driving hours.

– More patients, less travelling
– Save resources and funds
– Work sustainably

FAQ

Today, RecoVR is used in hospitals, private clinics and at the patient’s home. It requires that the user has a compatible VR-headset and a RecoVR licence.

How does it work for patients that wear glasses?

Our VR headsets are adjustable and there is room to wear glasses, with the exception for very large frames. If possible, eye lenses are recommended for the sake of comfort. Alternatively, if you have a minor visual impairment, it is recommended to try without glasses.

Are there any risks with VR therapy?

Some patients can experience motion sickness, dizziness, headache or similar symptoms during a session with a VR headset. About 10 % of people that try VR for the first time, experience some kind of discomfort. Most patients who experience discomfort often get more and more used to the environments and the symptoms decrease with repeated treatment sessions.

For how long can you wear VR glasses?

This is very individual. Some individuals can experience motion sickness or dizziness during a certain type of VR usage, but the experiences are made to be gentle to the greatest extent possible and to most individuals, it is a problem that decreases instantly.
