DIGITAL REHABILITATION REVOLUTION: EXERGAMING AND MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS

Digital Rehabilitation Revolution delivers the first full-length, evidence-based roadmap to using exergaming and interactive technologies as therapeutic tools for people living with multiple sclerosis (MS). Drawing on the latest randomized-controlled trials and framed by the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF), the book shows how motion-captured game play can simultaneously improve balance, mood, adherence, and—most importantly—real-world participation.
Readers will find:
• A lucid primer on MS pathophysiology and participation restrictions.
• A step-by-step review of commercial and clinical exergaming platforms, with safety and cost data.
• Detailed implementation protocols for clinics, community programs, and home-based care.
• Guidelines for selecting outcome measures that capture true participation change.
• Future directions including AI-driven personalization, VR/AR environments, and precision-rehab analytics.
Essential reading for physiotherapists, occupational therapists, neurologists, rehabilitation researchers, digital-health entrepreneurs, and MS advocates, this guide bridges the gap between inspiring theory and day-to-day clinical practice.
