I first came across fascia tissue while studying and practicing traditional acupuncture. I was intrigued by the striking resemblance of the fascia ‘trains’ (connecting paths between body parts) and Chinese meridians…The present study does not focus on this similarity and its significance yet, taking us back to more fundamental questions: how does fascia work mechanically? What is its composition and structure? Can we imitate it?

A VR rehabilitation game simulation is developed, which focuses on the upper-limb movement of reaching, an essential movement involved in numerous daily life activities. Its novelty consists in the integration of a machine learning algorithm, enabling highly adaptive and patient-customized therapeutic intervention.
