“We envisioned early on that Virtual Reality would profoundly enhance the quality of life and health outcomes for seniors,” said Chris Brickler, co-founder and CEO of Mynd Immersive. “Today, we’re seeing Mynd become an essential part of healthcare delivery, driving real-world gains in functional therapy, cognitive engagement, and staff training.”
Select Rehabilitation, the nation’s largest contract therapy company with over 20,000 therapists, is enhancing physical, occupational, and speech therapy across its customer communities by integrating the award-winning MyndXR℠ platform—supporting cognitive, physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being.
"Our partnership with Mynd empowers therapists to engage patients in meaningful, motivating experiences that support real clinical outcomes," said Anna Wolfe, CEO at Select Rehabilitation. “With these tools, we are creating the therapy room of the future – today. Our therapists can now work on improving range of motion, strength building, gait training, spatial awareness, and Activities of Daily Living (ADLs) through immersive environments that make rehabilitation both effective and enjoyable."
Powered by the lightweight HTC VIVE XR Elite, MyndXR℠ delivers Augmented Reality (AR), Mixed Reality (MR), and Virtual Reality (VR) experiences designed for comfort, clinical intention, and impact.
“Aging is a global challenge, with over 1.6 billion people projected to be over 65 by 2050," said Cher Wang, Co-Founder and Chairwoman of HTC. “It’s inspiring to see our technology bring healing and joy into the lives of older adults. We are proud to partner with Mynd to make real-world positive impacts on peoples’ lives, furthering our vision of merging technology and imagination to benefit humanity."
With average deployment and training of 25 communities per week, Mynd is driving unprecedented scale and setting a new standard for immersive, evidence-based care.
