PT+
With PT+, you have the ability to measure and record neck range of motion. Using this data with a physical therapist, you can determine which stretches and exercises within the app are appropriate to perform. Your therapist can also base the need for other exercises and stretches in the clinic according to the data collected.
There are three modes within the app:
“Measure Range of Motion” displays small tabs with numerical values that show degrees in certain planes. You can “push” each of these tabs in a single direction.
The “Stretches” section will show you how to stretch each muscle in your neck by directing your center of view in a precise way. When you overlap the object in your center of view with the duplicate object in space, PT+ will time your stretch, then count repetitions for you.
“Exercises” also directs your center of view, then scores the accuracy of your motion. Use this mode to gain control and fine-tune the movement in your cervical spine.
PT+ utilizes your headset’s sensors to monitor your neck’s movement. It is an excellent tool to be used in conjunction with physical therapy. PT+ is to be used only with the guidance of an MD, DO, chiropractor, or physical therapist. While range of motion exercises are widely used in treatment of neck dysfunction, always consult the above-mentioned professionals before using the app.

This is an incredibly simple, yet effective application to help you stretch your neck. Perfect for anyone spending long periods of time at a computer.
Note: Not to be confused with a similarly named reboot of a dead franchise.

After too long in front of the computer screen, it's time to switch on the VR and refurb the neck with PT+. I can really tell how much this helps. Are you people with "cell phone posture" listening?

Does what it says, which is something a lot of us need. Really want more innovative VR games/utilities like this. Good work!

Very innovative use of VR. Great for neck stretching and easy to use. Normally you wouldn't get this kind of visual feedback when stretching on your own, so you can measure your progress really well. Also, it has stretches and head movements you might not have thought of. It's like having a virtual physical therapist. Definitely would recommend if you have any neck stiffness or pain.

Wow, what a neck workout! Definitely worth the time played; 18 minutes, and I'm really feeling the stretch. I'm hoping the more I play, the more limber I'll become. I've always had a long neck, and spend a long time at the computer. This will be worth repeating to improve my range of motion, and hopefully my neck exercises will improve my posture as well.

This has the potential to change any manual therapists job.
