Three Years of Conventional Therapy. No Hand Movement. Then Rewin.

Yes. Neuroplasticity — the brain’s ability to form new neural connections — does not stop after one, two or three years. What stops is the stimulus. Conventional physio, delivered at the same intensity over years, no longer challenges the brain sufficiently. Rewin’s technology changes the stimulus fundamentally. Mr. Gnanaprakash had zero hand movement for three years; after 3 months of our programme he had regained voluntary finger movement and functional grasp.

Yes — this is where our camera-based AI detection is most valuable. It can identify sub-threshold activity and translate even minimal signals into the exercise environment, beginning to build the neuroplastic pathway before visible movement exists. We have successfully initiated recovery programmes with patients who had no voluntary hand movement at all.

Most neurologists give an honest assessment based on what conventional physiotherapy delivers — and they are right that it has a ceiling. High-intensity, AI sensor-guided, VR-assisted therapy is recent technology, and its outcomes differ from what most physicians have in their frame of reference. We are not contradicting your neurologist; we are offering a different level of stimulus and asking you to evaluate the results. A free assessment costs you 45 minutes and nothing else.

VR hand rehabilitation is safe and not painful. Sessions are supervised throughout by a certified Rewin physiotherapist, and intensity is carefully calibrated — especially in early sessions — to match the patient’s tolerance. If there is any discomfort or fatigue, the therapist adjusts immediately.

With some residual hand movement, most patients see measurable improvement on the motion sensors within 2–4 weeks for mild to moderate conditions, and after 5+ weeks for severe conditions. Visible functional improvement typically follows at weeks 4–8. For patients with no initial movement, the first detectable sensor signal usually appears between weeks 3–6. We share the sensor data with patients and families at every review.

We recommend 3–4 sessions per week for the primary programme; fewer than 3 significantly reduces the pace of improvement. We also prescribe a 15–20 minute daily home exercise programme between sessions.

Yes — from our Chennai clinic. A certified Rewin physiotherapist can visit your home with portable VR hand therapy equipment. Home visit sessions are priced at ₹1,200–1,500. WhatsApp us to confirm availability in your area.

Stroke is our primary specialisation — it represents the majority of our neurological patient population and is the condition our VR platform is most deeply optimised for. We also treat Parkinson’s disease, traumatic brain injury, post-brain surgery rehabilitation and vestibular disorders. Our approach is the same: structured assessment, planned programme, measured outcomes.
