Why is it important?
The motivation and predisposition than patients show towards rehabilitation when using this approach that combines VR and music is significantly higher compared to traditional rehabilitation methods, and therefore it can improve the quality of life of people with disabilities living or spending large amounts of time in specialized centers.
Perspectives
This work, based on my Msc thesis, has been probably the most rewarding academic/professional experience for me, specially knowing that the application is being used every day right now by patients and professionals in different centers of Spain.
