The global rehabilitation robots market size is estimated to reach USD 1.03 billion by 2030, registering to grow at a CAGR of 15.2% from 2025 to 2030 according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The major factors driving the industry growth are the high per capita healthcare spending and rapid adoption of technologically advanced instruments. The demand for rehabilitation robots is increasing, as these are beneficial in improving the quality of life of individuals with conditions such as spinal cord injury, paralysis, and others. The rising number of product approvals by regulatory bodies such as the FDA is expected to further propel the growth in the forecast period. Increasing incidence of spinal cord injury and musculoskeletal disorders are driving the adoption of robots for rehabilitation purposes.
The high purchasing and maintenance costs of rehabilitation robots along with stringent approval procedures are some factors that may hamper the market growth in the coming future. Furthermore, COVID 19 also significantly impacted the industry growth. However, constant strategic initiatives in the form of product launches, partnerships, and acquisitions have increased the competition in the industry, thereby supporting growth. In addition, growing technological advancements and increasing expenditure by key players in R&D processes are one of the major factors boosting the market growth.
The lower body extremity held the largest revenue share in 2024. An increase in the prevalence of lower body disabilities, a rapidly aging population, and paralyzed patients are anticipated to boost the adoption, penetration, & growth of the lower-body exoskeleton market. Although, the upper body extremity is expected to have the fastest CAGR of 17.6% over the forecast period.
Hospitals & clinics held the largest market share of 47.1% in 2024. The growth is majorly attributed due to growing healthcare expenditure, and rapid adoption of advanced technology in healthcare facilities. However, senior care facilities are expected to grow with the fastest CAGR over the forecast period. The growth can be attributed to the growing demand for better healthcare facilities for senior citizens and the rising geriatric population.
North America held the largest share in the year 2024. The increasing prevalence of spinal cord injury in the region is fueling the market growth. The rising geriatric population and growing disabled population are among the factors boosting the adoption of rehabilitation robots. However, Asia Pacific is expected to grow at the fastest growth rate during the forecast period.
