Rehab 2.0: Robotics, Exoskeletons, and Mixed Reality

Will AI Replace Physiotherapists?

AI is no longer just a tool—it’s edging into physiotherapy’s core services. In this episode, Alex and Maya ask tough questions: What happens when AI apps handle patient education, exercise guidance, even basic movement evaluations—at a fraction of the cost? Could private practice collapse? Is licensing still relevant? Explore whether AI is partner, competitor, or replacement in the future of rehab.
