Robotic rehabilitation opens a new chapter in physical therapy

Dr. Arman Öztürk, physical medicine and rehabilitation specialist at Romatem İzmir, said technological development has transformed treatment, and that robotic systems are used to speed up and improve recovery. “Robotic rehabilitation opens a new chapter in physical therapy. It supports treatment in a range of conditions, including diseases of the nervous system, musculoskeletal injuries and neurological disorders.”

“Robotic rehabilitation personalises the treatment process, allowing a programme to be built around each individual’s needs. It also brings faster recovery and high motivation,” he said.

The aim is to make physical therapy personal

“Our aim is to make physical therapy more accessible, effective and personal. Robotic systems increase patients’ participation in treatment, and patients treated this way can recover faster than with conventional methods,” Dr. Öztürk said.

Robotic devices help patients regain physical mobility and contribute to motor skills such as strength, balance and coordination. With advanced software and hardware, they help patients reach their best performance during treatment.
