Reddy Care’s Virtual Reality Balance Training!

Virtual Reality Balance Training


With a video screen mounted at eye level, therapists and patients have an amazing communication tool at their fingertips! Concepts like posture and shifting your center of gravity were once thought to be difficult to explain and teach, however, they are now easily and practically explained through our Technobody balance machine.

There’s more to this system than meets the eye! You can perform both static and dynamic assessments and training with up to 50 different levels of instability. It has a wide base which allows both single and double leg stance assessments to be performed while also having the ability for one of the two main axes to be locked, limiting movement to be solely front-back or solely left-right. It also has a trunk sensor so the patient’s trunk movements can be assessed as well. 

Each patient’s specific training programs and profiles are recorded and provide real-time assessment and data analysis so their therapist can keep track of their progress and the patient can bring the report to their doctor! In addition; it has training protocols for specific conditions, baseline concussion testing, keeps a report on patients statistics which include force, balance, stability, flexibility, flexion and more!

After the assessments are complete, your therapist can select a game that best fits your condition and helps to train balance, allowing the patient to maintain concentration and have fun! These games create a twist from the classic ways of balance rehabilitation.  The purpose of the games are for training specific conditions and movements tailored to each patient. Each patient will have their own unique assessment which will provide precise and detailed data that will be used to measure progress and create specific training plans and programs for evidence-based outcomes!
