Robotic systems, virtual reality, transcranial magnetic stimulation and telecommunication technologies have been safely used in rehabilitation of traumatic brain-spinal injuries, stroke, motor neuron diseases, fibromyalgia, Parkinson’s disease, and balance disorders. Their benefits from the point of view of scientific studies include the properties of a reliable test environment, gradual exposure to stimuli, simultaneous performance reporting, stimulus and response modifications, independent application chance, stimulus control and consistency, distraction or enhancement of the patient’s attention, and patient motivation. It would be inevitable to benefit from these technologies, which are economical, and for which access to rehabilitation is facilitated as a result of further worldwide increase in the elderly population and it would be useful technologies such as include robotics, virtual reality and magnetic stimulation used in rehabilitation of health professionals in their education programs.
