Walking Practice Combined with Virtual Reality Contributes to Early Acquisition of Symmetry Prosthetic Walking: An Experimental Study Using Simulated Prosthesis

Virtual reality (VR)-based rehabilitation has been used in lower limb amputees; however, the extent to which VR is effective in reacquiring symmetrical gait in lower limb amputees is unclear. The purpose of this study was to confirm whether a VR intervention is effective in obtaining a simulated pro...
