AUSTIN, TX, UNITED STATES, June 1, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Neuro Rehab VR continues its expansion across leading rehabilitation providers with a recent onboarding at the Texas NeuroRehab Center’s Post-Acute Brain Injury (PABI) Program, in Austin Texas. Led by Chief Partnerships Officer, Andy Mathis, the session introduced the team to Neuro Rehab VR’s Smart Therapy™ Complete Solution, designed to enhance patient engagement, streamline clinician workflows, and support better functional outcomes.

During the onboarding, the PABI therapy team participated in hands-on training, exploring how immersive, gamified therapy can be integrated into real-world clinical practice. From balance and coordination exercises to activities of daily living (ADL) simulations, the team experienced firsthand how Smart Therapy™ supports both cognitive and physical rehabilitation.

“What stood out during this onboarding was how quickly the team connected the technology to their patients,” said Andy Mathis. “There were immediate conversations around how this could support individuals working on balance, upper extremity function, and how even real-world tasks like grocery shopping could address executive function skills such as memory, attention and information processing.”

This integration is especially meaningful within the context of Texas NeuroRehab Center’s PABI program, a highly specialized service that provides advanced, focused care for individuals recovering from complex traumatic brain injuries (TBI) in a residential setting. The PABI program provides the intensity of rehabilitation and repetition of therapeutic activities to maintain neurorecovery after a neurological injury. It bridges the gap from inpatient rehab to help continue to build independence before transitioning to the home environment.

Incorporating The Smart Therapy™ system into their rehabilitation program allows clinicians to tailor therapy sessions in real time, adjusting intensity levels based on patient needs while tracking progress through a connected analytics platform. With a setup time of under 30 seconds and no external sensors required, the solution fits seamlessly into busy clinical environments.

For the PABI program, the onboarding marked the beginning of integrating immersive therapy into their care approach, providing patients with a more engaging and motivating rehabilitation experience. Mary, an Occupational Therapist, said “The Neuro Rehab VR system is a great tool for safely challenging patients in ways we may not be able to easily simulate. For example, the grocery store simulator is a great way to address visual scanning, reaching out of patients' base of support, and task endurance. We could work on these skills at the PABI, but the context of the grocery store is a key aspect of the simulation. Implementing the driving simulator and baseball catching activity have also been fun twists on addressing meaningful occupations for our patients!” After a VR session, Mary’s patient, Robert, commented, “It was fun, the grocery store felt so real, like I was in the store with my cart. It was a good workout, too.”

“We’re excited to see how the team brings this into their sessions,” Mathis added. “It’s not just about adding technology, it’s about creating more opportunities for movement, engagement, and meaningful progress.”

As Neuro Rehab VR continues to partner with clinics, hospitals, and rehabilitation centers nationwide, onboarding sessions like this play a key role in ensuring clinicians feel confident, supported, and ready to implement new tools into patient care.
