Imagine a world where physical therapy is not only effective but also enjoyable. Researchers at Universidad Carlos III de Madrid (UC3M), in partnership with Escuela Politécnica del Ecuador and ASEPEYO hospitals in Barcelona and Madrid, have developed an innovative system of exercise video games, also known as exergames, designed to promote hand and wrist rehabilitation for individuals with mobility issues. These interactive games are specifically created to improve hand and wrist mobility, dexterity, and strength, making the rehabilitation process more engaging and fun. By leveraging the power of exergames, patients can now look forward to a more enjoyable and motivating physical therapy experience, which can lead to better outcomes and faster recovery. With the help of these innovative video games, individuals can regain control over their hand and wrist movements, enhancing their overall quality of life. The use of exergames in physical therapy is a growing trend, and this breakthrough system is set to revolutionize the field of rehabilitation, offering a new and exciting approach to hand and wrist rehabilitation exercises.
