Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to compare how the incorporation of Virtual Reality could influence in proprioception, kinesiophobia, functionality and catastrophism in people that are undergoing a rehabilitation treatment after a wrist fracture. The principal questions it aims to answer are:

* Evaluate the effect of using virtual reality added to standard rehabilitation of wrist injuries in proprioception impairment.
* Evaluate the effect of using virtual reality on psychological factors as kinesiophobia and catastrofism.
* Evaluate the effect of using virtual reality in functionality on wrist-injured patients.

Intervention will be:

* Control group: participants of this group will receive conventional rehabilitation of the wrist, plus a specific proprioceptive exercise program.
* Experimental group: participants of this group will receive the same treatment as the control group but adding virtual reality games at the end of the session.

Researchers will compare control and experimental group to see if an implantation of Virtual Reality could had benefits on function, kinesiophobia, catastrofism and proprioception.
