A sensor-driven physiotherapy system comprising an exercise repository electronically storing digitally represented exercises each of which includes exercise quality parameter/s, and/or a hardware processor configured to assign a score for exercise quality parameter/s for each of at least some exercises in the repository, wherein the score is derived from sensor data collected while patients performed the exercises wearing a sensor which generates the sensor data; and/or exercise recommendation functionality to select, from the digitally represented exercises, exercise/s which the system recommends for at least one patient profile e.g. set of patients. Typically the exercise which the system recommends, for a given patient profile, statistically contributes more, to gait improvement of patients belonging to that profile, than exercises which are not recommended for that profile contribute, to gait improvement of patients belonging to that profile.
