CORONADO-AHUMADA, Kelly Johanna et al. The Added Value of Virtual Reality in Muscle Rehabilitation Treatments. A Literature Review. Rev. Lasallista Investig. [online]. 2021, vol.18, n.2, pp.239-257. Epub 19-Mar-2022. ISSN 1794-4449. https://doi.org/10.22507/rli.v18n2a16.
Virtual reality (VR) is an alternative tool for the rehabilitation of various injuries of the human body. This paper identified the main contributions of RV in muscle rehabilitation treatments reported in the literature. According to the analyzed research, it was shown that, unlike conventional treatments for muscle rehabilitation, those performed with RV increased the level of motivation of patients to successfully complete them, thanks to the interactive environment that VR offers. Likewise, according to the reviewed studies, the patients manifested decreased pain during and after therapies.
