“We want to make physical therapy fun and motivating,” Eran Arden, Timocco’s CEO, said in a recent interview. “The patient is playing a game but is realizing the goals the therapist has written for him.”
Physical therapy is a “critical part of addressing upper extremity impairments” but is typically “boring” and limited to sessions at a clinic. Gaming is a “great approach to providing more therapy,” he said, adding it motivates therapy through play.
“They don’t know it’s exercise. That’s the key,” Crisco said.
