Virtetic

The Problem

Over 57 million people around the world live with a major limb amputation with a further 1 million people undergoing such amputations every year. It takes four to six months post-amputation for people to receive a prosthesis. During this period they have limited rehabilitation and training opportunities, leading to long term issues such as overuse syndrome and phantom limb pain.

The Solution

At Virtetic, we are developing game-based virtual reality therapeutics (VRx) to support the rehabilitation and prosthesis use training of people living with limb loss. Our VR therapies allow people to start their rehabilitation within a month after limb loss. Ultimately allowing people to take advantage of their prosthesis from day one.
