Intervention
Virtual reality exercises using Hand Tutor for 8 weeks
Virtual Reality Exercises using Hand Tutor
Virtual reality technology is rapidly becoming a popular application for physical rehabilitation and motor control research. The prototype, which includes a built-in movement sensor, allows the user to do controlled exercises as part of a rehabilitation program. The supervised intervention program consists of a forty-minute exercise session three times a week for 8 weeks. In addition, these patients will receive a home exercise program. The patients in the control group will receive only a home exercise program for 8 weeks. The home exercise program consists of different games and exercises such as range of motion, stretch, and strengthening exercises for hand.
Control
Home exercises for 8 weeks
No interventions assigned to this group
