Upper-limb home therapy robot refers to a robotic system developed to assist patients in carrying out rehabilitation exercises for the upper limbs, including the arms, shoulders, and hands, within a home setting. It provides consistent, guided, and repetitive training to enhance motor function, strength, and coordination during the recovery process.
The main product categories of upper-limb home therapy robots include exoskeleton robots, end-effector robots, wearable robots, and others. Exoskeleton robots are wearable robotic systems created to support or enhance an individual's movement and physical abilities. Therapy options include active therapy, passive therapy, assistive therapy, and others, and are available through online and offline distribution channels. These robots are utilized in stroke rehabilitation, orthopedic rehabilitation, neurological rehabilitation, and other applications, serving end users such as hospitals, rehabilitation centers, homecare environments, and others.
Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
The fast surge in U.S. tariffs and the trade tensions that followed in spring 2025 are heavily affecting the medical equipment sector, particularly for imported imaging machine components, surgical-grade stainless steel, and plastic disposables. Hospitals and clinics resist price hikes, pressuring manufacturers' margins. Regulatory hurdles compound the problem, as tariff-related supplier changes often require re-certification of devices, delaying time-to-market. Companies are mitigating risks by dual-sourcing critical parts, expanding domestic production of commoditized items, and accelerating R&D in cost-efficient materials.

This upper-limb home therapy robot market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
The upper-limb home therapy robot market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $1.43 billion in 2024 to $1.70 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 19.5%. Growth during the historic period can be attributed to the increasing emphasis on patient-centric care models, rising investments in healthcare robotics, growing demand for personalized rehabilitation, expanding integration of robotics within rehabilitation centers, and the increasing need for wearable rehabilitation devices.
The upper-limb home therapy robot market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $3.43 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 19.1%. Growth in the forecast period can be attributed to the increasing prevalence of neurological disorders, a rising aging population, growing demand for home-based healthcare, greater adoption of telehealth and remote monitoring, and increasing awareness and acceptance of robotic therapies. Key trends during the forecast period include technological progress in robotics, integration of artificial intelligence and machine learning, advancements in wearable sensor technology, development of exoskeleton and end-effector robots, and improvements in haptic feedback technology.
The increasing prevalence of neurological disorders is expected to drive the growth of the upper-limb home therapy robot market in the coming years. Neurological disorders are medical conditions that interfere with the normal functioning of the nervous system, affecting movement, cognition, and sensory abilities. The rise in these disorders is largely attributed to the aging population, as older individuals are more susceptible to brain cell degeneration and age-related neurological conditions. Upper-limb home therapy robots support patients with neurological disorders by enabling consistent and personalized arm exercises that promote neuroplasticity and aid in the recovery of impaired motor functions. For example, in March 2023, according to the Alzheimer's Association, a US-based non-profit organization, approximately 6.7 million Americans aged 65 and older were living with Alzheimer's dementia. Therefore, the increasing prevalence of neurological disorders is contributing to the growth of the upper-limb home therapy robot market.
Major companies in the upper-limb home therapy robot market are focusing on developing advanced rehabilitation technologies to deliver personalized therapy and improve recovery for patients with neurological or musculoskeletal impairments. Rehabilitation robots are automated devices designed to assist and enhance the restoration of motor functions in patients' upper or lower limbs through guided exercises, repetitive movements, and customized therapy programs. For instance, in November 2023, Shanghai Siyi Intelligent Technology Co. Ltd., a China-based technology company, introduced the upper-limb rehabilitation robot (SY-UEA2) and the hand rehabilitation robot (BCI) SY-BR09 to offer targeted home-based therapy and improve motor recovery. The Syrebo upper-limb rehabilitation robot (SY-UEA2) supports arm and shoulder recovery with precise optical-positioning control, adaptive training modes, and real-time motion feedback for full-cycle rehabilitation at home or in clinical environments. The hand rehabilitation robot (BCI) SY-BR09 employs brain-computer interface and flexible robotics to restore fine motor control, encouraging neural rewiring and faster recovery for stroke and nerve injury patients. Together, these systems deliver intelligent, interactive, and personalized neurorehabilitation that enhances independence, mobility, and quality of life.
In September 2025, the International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics, a US-based academic conference, partnered with the Indonesian Association of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation to promote knowledge sharing and advance the development of innovative rehabilitation technologies in Indonesia. This collaboration aims to enhance rehabilitation robotics across Asia-Oceania by improving clinician training, encouraging affordable clinical adoption, fostering joint research, and expanding access to robotic therapies in various healthcare settings. The Indonesian Association of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation is an Indonesia-based professional organization for physical medicine and rehabilitation that offers the upper-limb home therapy robot.
