Systems and methods for displaying augmented reality clinical movements may use an augmented reality device to display aspects of a clinical movement. The systems and methods may use a motion capture device to capture the clinical movement. A method may include analyzing information about the clinical movement to determine a path of motion representative of at least a portion of the clinical movement. The method may automatically define a path region or a virtual target in an augmented reality environment overlaid on a real environment. The method may display the path region or the virtual target on an augmented reality display.
