So I guess the increasing population of those having no religious affiliation aren't worth getting rehabbed.

stroke recovery depends on, a) motivation for physical exercises and b) trained therapists. The
objective of the study was to examine the effect an exergame with a religious ritual as gameplay
theme has on the motivation for lower limb motor therapy. Two games were designed and developed,
a 'temple game’ simulating the 2400 odd steps to reach the sanctum of
a famous deity located in
India and a 'trekking game' with similar setup sans the religious symbols. A gym stair
-
stepper
equipment was fitted with sensors to detect the action of climbing. Each physical step
-
action is
mapped to a corressponding step in the virtual game. Data
were
collected from 4 stroke patients, 1
spinal cord injury patient and 13 healthy male participants. Motivation/immersion difference between
the two games was compared. The post
-
test game experience questionnaire scored higher on
immersion, motivation
,
and
interest for the temple game. A remotely accessed and controlled
exergame is considered important for doctors and patients due to the acute shortage of trained
therapists. The findings open up a new genre of exergaming for neurorehabilitation customized to
personal belief/faith structures. The authors do not propagate or promote any religious beliefs
(+positive or
-
negative) but have sourced an existing belief system to build assistive devices for
stroke rehab

Use the labels in the right column to find what you want. Or you can go thru them one by one, there are only 29,294 posts. Searching is done in the search box in upper left corner. I blog on anything to do with stroke. DO NOT DO ANYTHING SUGGESTED HERE AS I AM NOT MEDICALLY TRAINED, YOUR DOCTOR IS, LISTEN TO THEM. BUT I BET THEY DON'T KNOW HOW TO GET YOU 100% RECOVERED. I DON'T EITHER BUT HAVE PLENTY OF QUESTIONS FOR YOUR DOCTOR TO ANSWER.
Changing stroke rehab and research worldwide now.Time is Brain! trillions and trillions of neurons that DIE each day because there are NO effective hyperacute therapies besides tPA(only 12% effective). I have 523 posts on hyperacute therapy, enough for researchers to spend decades proving them out. These are my personal ideas and blog on stroke rehabilitation and stroke research. Do not attempt any of these without checking with your medical provider. Unless you join me in agitating, when you need these therapies they won't be there.
What this blog is for:
My blog is not to help survivors recover, it is to have the 10 million yearly stroke survivors light fires underneath their doctors, stroke hospitals and stroke researchers to get stroke solved. 100% recovery. The stroke medical world is completely failing at that goal, they don't even have it as a goal. Shortly after getting out of the hospital and getting NO information on the process or protocols of stroke rehabilitation and recovery I started searching on the internet and found that no other survivor received useful information. This is an attempt to cover all stroke rehabilitation information that should be readily available to survivors so they can talk with informed knowledge to their medical staff. It lays out what needs to be done to get stroke survivors closer to 100% recovery. It's quite disgusting that this information is not available from every stroke association and doctors group.

The authors missed the point. Walking repeatedly with no goal is boring. Using an "immersion experience" engages the mind.
