Virtual reality

Virtual reality is a simulation of the real world generated by computer software and experienced by users via a man-machine interface, providing them with intensive repetition of complex tasks, directed by visual and auditory stimuli, creating dynamic individual-task interaction, a motivating environment and immediate feedback on performance and results, stimulating motor skill learning and motor control of complex behaviors.

OTHER

Conventional physical therapy

Exercises of stretching and strengthening of the upper and lower limbs, as well as coordination, gait and balance.
