Reimagining Recovery: Advanced Neuro Rehabilitation

Recovering from a neurological injury or condition can be a complex journey, but advances in rehabilitation technology are creating new opportunities for patients to rebuild skills, confidence and independence.

At Westmead Rehabilitation Hospital, we are committed to delivering innovative, evidence-informed rehabilitation services that support meaningful recovery. As part of our Neuro Rehabilitation Day Program, patients have access to advanced technologies such as the MYRO® by Tyromotion, an interactive robotic-assisted therapy system designed to enhance both physical and cognitive rehabilitation.

Bringing Rehabilitation to Life

Traditional rehabilitation remains an important part of recovery, but technology is helping to take therapy to the next level.

The MYRO® system combines intensive, task-specific training with engaging, real-world activities that encourage active participation and motivation. Through interactive and gamified therapy exercises, patients can work on a range of skills including:

  • Upper limb movement and function
  • Balance and coordination
  • Cognitive retraining
  • Attention and concentration
  • Visual-spatial skills
  • Functional task practice
  • Activities of daily living

By challenging motor and cognitive function simultaneously, the technology supports the principles of neuroplasticity and motor learning, helping patients practise meaningful tasks in a structured and measurable way.

Personalised Rehabilitation for Every Patient

No two recovery journeys are the same.

Our multidisciplinary rehabilitation team uses technology such as MYRO® alongside individualised therapy programs to create tailored interventions that align with each patient's goals, abilities and stage of recovery.

The system enables therapists to monitor progress, adjust therapy difficulty and provide highly personalised treatment experiences that remain engaging throughout the rehabilitation process.

For many patients, this approach can help build confidence, encourage participation and support greater independence in everyday activities.

Supporting a Wide Range of Neurological Conditions

Westmead Rehabilitation Hospital's Neuro Rehabilitation Day Program supports people living with a range of neurological conditions and rehabilitation needs, including:

  • Stroke rehabilitation
  • Acquired brain injury rehabilitation
  • Neurological conditions
  • Upper limb rehabilitation
  • Cognitive and functional retraining

Our Day Program allows participants to access specialised rehabilitation services while remaining connected to their home and community environment.

Investing in Advanced Rehabilitation Technology

At Westmead Rehabilitation Hospital, we are proud to provide access to world-class rehabilitation technologies that complement the expertise of our experienced clinical team.

By embracing innovation and evidence-informed practice, we continue to explore new ways to support recovery and help individuals maximise their functional abilities following neurological injury or illness.

Technology alone is not the answer, but when combined with skilled clinical care, it can open new possibilities and support patients to achieve meaningful rehabilitation goals.
