OT, Exergaming, and MS

We have already seen our fair share of technology-related research on the podcast, but this week's article introduces a type of tech that we have not yet discussed: exergaming.

This particular article looks at exergaming for patients with MS, but it also brought up larger questions about the role of OT in exercise and habit formation—and, ultimately, in identity transformation.

To discuss this article please join us at the OT Potential Club.

Also, here is the blog post mentioned in the article: OT vs PA: Which to be?
