Pain is the primary cause of consultation for spinal disorders. And we all know the expression: "the right treatment is movement", hence the importance of getting the patient back into movement. Virtualis is a company founded by a physiotherapist and which has been developing Virtual Reality (VR) assessments and rehabilitation exercises since 2015, using an internal team of physiotherapists and occupational therapists. Therapeutic VR has become a complementary care offer, particularly for the treatment of the spine in the 3 levels: Evaluation of amplitudes and pain thresholds / Recording of quantitative parameters of amplitude and speed of movement / Comparison of data using graphic exports or raw data / Exercises for stabilising the spine or working on mobility that can be segmented or integrated into functional gestures / Various environments, Environments conducive to diverting the patient's attention (to combat kinesiophobia) / Progressive and quantified repetition of movements (amplitude and speed) / Precise and real-time adjustment of work criteria (speed, amplitude, etc.).). Boost and quantify your Rehabilitation with the VR Therapeutic designed by Health Professionals, a real therapeutic innovation recognized, winner of the Rééduca Innov Competition in 2021, 2018 and 2016. Register to the webinar on May 24th from 12:30 to 1:30 pm to understand why this complementary care offer will optimize your practice in the management of a painful spine (and not only), directed by Franck Assaban, MKDE, Founder and President of Virtualis.

"Another advantage is that we can adapt the exercises and their difficulty in real time to the problems and abilities of each individual," says Noémie Muller, an occupational therapist at Freyming-Merlebach Hospital, who is equipped with Virtualis' Virtual Reality (VR) solutions. "This allows us to vary the way we treat patients, to work differently, with innovative tools. Just as in physiotherapy, VR opens up complementary perspectives for occupational therapists in rehabilitation: balance, locomotor apparatus, pain, upper/inf limbs, spine, neurology, cognition... can be worked on and facilitate the return to the activities of daily life of patients. Virtualis, a company founded by a physiotherapist in 2015, relies on an internal team of physiotherapists and occupational therapists to develop multidisciplinary tools for the care teams of more than 700 SSR Centres, CRFs and practices. Register for a 60 min webinar to understand how this complementary care offer has become an asset also in Occupational Therapy which will be presented by Franz Gayet, Occupational Therapist within Virtualis.

Virtual Reality (VR), developed by therapists, has become a complementary care offer, particularly for the treatment of lower limbs, which makes it possible to carry out quantified assessments and varied, immersive rehabilitation exercises that can be configured in real time. And this technological innovation is attracting more and more interest from scientists and research. Take the example of a patient to be managed following ACL reconstruction: Gokeler et al (2016) explain that patients who had the green light to return to sport following ACL reconstruction had altered movement patterns in the operated knee, resulting in a risk of relapse or injury to the contralateral limb. Rehabilitation with VR improved these patterns, approximating those of healthy subjects. Immersive VR can improve the assessment of return to sport criteria and motor learning rehabilitation to decrease the risk of relapse in post ACL reconstruction patients [1]. The Virtualis VR solutions will enable: Active and quantified proprioception work, support recovery and quantification, strengthening, and joint stability work.

Falls among people aged 65 and over living at home or in health care institutions are the cause of significant morbidity and mortality, and thus represent a major public health problem. Approximately 28-35% of people aged 65 and over fall each year, and this proportion rises to 32-42% among those aged 70 and over (Santé Publique France figures 03.03.2017). In the event of walking and/or balance problems, the French National Authority for Health (HAS) recommends prescribing physiotherapy sessions including: static and dynamic postural balance work and strengthening the strength and muscle power of the lower limbs. According to the HAS, these practices must be regular with low to moderate intensity exercises and followed by self-education exercises, between and after the sessions, to prolong the gains in daily life. The Virtual Therapeutic Reality developed by Virtualis becomes a real asset for the management of these patients with Rehabilitation Assessments and exercises to prevent falls and work on the factors that trigger them (musculoskeletal disorders, balance, neurological, physical activity...). The work is done in a progressive manner with real-time adjustment according to the conditions of each patient. This new approach is highly acceptable and older patients are even more motivated by the fun and varied aspect. The result is quick and lasting results.
