Reuth TLV has launched a cutting-edge immersive room that brings virtual reality into the rehabilitation process, offering patients an unprecedented opportunity to practice daily living skills in a safe, controlled, and fully interactive environment.

Originally developed for educational institutions by Israeli startup 3walls, the technology has been adapted for medical use in collaboration with Reuth’s professional team. This marks the company’s first foray into the healthcare sector and represents a significant leap forward in the personalization of rehabilitation therapy.

“The immersive room allows patients to perform everyday tasks—such as shopping in a supermarket or navigating a train station—through realistic digital simulations,” explains Hadassah Fortinsky, Director of the Occupational Therapy Unit at Reuth. “Patients can engage in cognitive and motor exercises at the same time, in an environment tailored specifically to their needs.”

The system, designed to simulate a variety of environments like beaches, urban landscapes, or nature scenes, uses advanced projections and motion sensors to create a multi-sensory experience. It is particularly beneficial for stroke patients, who practice essential movements such as reaching for objects or performing fine motor tasks. The platform also supports patients undergoing respiratory rehabilitation, offering calming virtual journeys that can help reduce anxiety and elevate mood.

“All of the exercises were designed in close cooperation with our clinical teams,” says Fortinsky. “They reflect the real-world needs of our patients, making treatment more engaging and deeply personalized.”

According to Uri Melamed, CEO and founder of 3walls, the transition from educational use to healthcare was a natural evolution. “Our goal has always been to help people—whether in the classroom or in the clinic,” he notes. “What’s happening at Reuth is a perfect example of how flexible, adaptive technology can change lives.”

Melamed adds that the development process remains collaborative and ongoing. “We are constantly working with Reuth’s medical team to improve and expand the system. Every new idea leads to a new feature, a new capability. It’s a living, evolving process.”

With this pioneering step, Reuth reinforces its commitment to innovation, quality of care, and individualized rehabilitation solutions. The immersive room is more than a technological advancement—it is a new chapter in how recovery is experienced and achieved.
