It allows an effective an intensive, early, stimulating and flexible neuromotor treatment. With a wide range of application Gloreha is one of the leading products on the global market for hand rehabilitation. Whilst the patient follows and cooperates with the exercise through 3D animation on the screen, a comfortable and light glove mobilizes the fingers’ joints. Hand movements are connected with video and audio effects that stimulate neurocognitive recovery. Gloreha allows varied and longer therapies with a minimal supervision by the therapists.
