Virtual Rehabilitation Global Market Report 2024

The virtual rehabilitation market size has grown exponentially in recent years. It will grow from $0.53 billion in 2023 to $0.66 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 24.4%. The growth observed in the historical period can be attributed to several factors, including the rising incidence of disability among the population, the expanding utilization of virtual reality (VR) in patient treatment, and the increasing adoption of VR technology within the healthcare sector.

The virtual rehabilitation market size is expected to see exponential growth in the next few years. It will grow to $1.58 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 24.3%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to several factors, including the rapidly aging population, rising prevalence of non-communicable diseases, the implementation of various policies supporting virtual rehabilitation, and a growing emphasis on patient-centric healthcare. Key trends expected during this period encompass product innovations, partnerships within the industry, advancements in virtual rehabilitation technologies, the adoption of newer technologies, and improvements in internet connectivity for smoother interactions.

The anticipated increase in the prevalence of disability is poised to drive the expansion of the virtual rehabilitation market in the future. Disability encompasses conditions - physical, cognitive, sensory, or mental - that significantly limit an individual's ability to engage in daily activities, participate fully in society, or assume typical life roles. Virtual rehabilitation plays a crucial role in supporting the disabled population by offering remote access to therapeutic interventions and personalized exercises through virtual platforms. For example, as reported by the World Health Organization in March 2023, approximately 1.3 billion people worldwide, constituting 16% of the global population, are living with disabilities. Consequently, the escalating prevalence of disability among the population serves as a catalyst propelling the growth of the virtual rehabilitation market.

Leading companies in the virtual rehabilitation market are focusing on the development of advanced virtual rehabilitation platforms, such as multi-disciplinary rehabilitation tools, to gain a competitive advantage. A multi-disciplinary rehabilitation tool encompasses a holistic approach involving professionals from diverse disciplines collaborating to meet the needs of individuals recovering from illness, injury, or disability. For example, in November 2022, Penumbra, a US-based medical company, introduced the first hands-free, full-body virtual reality-based offering for rehabilitation, expanding its REAL System platform. Distinguished as the sole hands-free, non-tethered virtual reality rehabilitation platform catering to both upper and lower extremities with a comprehensive immersive experience, it enables clinicians to personalize exercises and activities to challenge, motivate, and engage patients while monitoring their progress. Leveraging virtual reality, the REAL System platform delivers immersive healthcare interventions aimed at enhancing various aspects of health, including functional skills, cognition, and stress management.
