Efficacy
Research has already demonstrated the effectiveness of VR to treat stress and anxiety disorders. A large number of studies have already shown that VR-based interventions have greater efficacy and efficiency than traditional relaxation techniques.
The Science
History
Virtual reality is not a new technology and has over 2 decades of research supporting its high clinical efficacy. It has been established as a powerful tool for the assessment, study and treatment of various mental health and behavioral issues.
Presence
Controlled studies have shown that virtual reality may evoke the same reactions, thoughts and emotions as experiences in a real-world situation. This is due its ability to induce a high level of presence or the illusion of “being there” within the simulated scenario.

Research
01
Cardiac Rehabilitation
Conclusions: Those findings show the efficacy and viability of using Relax VR as a method to reduce the negative emotions in cardiac patients.
02
Pain Management
Conclusion: The results of the study showed that through the use of Relax VR with the therapeutic narrative:
• Pain tolerance increased significantly (85.35%)
• Levels of enjoyment increased during the painful procedure
• Participants felt as if time went by more quickly (faster time perception)
03
Anxiety and Stress
Conclusions: Natural scene VR provided relaxation both objectively and subjectively, and scene preference had a significant effect on mood and perception of scene quality. VR may enable relaxation for people living in isolated confined environments, particularly when matched to personal preferences.
04
Relaxation Stress Reduction
Conclustion: Audio-Visual Brainwave Entrainment (ABE) associated with Dr. Kelly Miller’s “Saving your Brain” therapeutic approach positively affected Quantitative Electroencephalogram (QEEG) Analysis and Cognitive and Emotional Checklist Assessment.
05
Manage Stress and Discomfort in ICU
Conclusion: The main results of the study showed: • Reduced levels of anxiety and depression • Patients considered Relax VR comfortable, enjoyable, and helped them better manage their pain. The study showed that Relax VR can be easily implemented in an ICU and is well-received by the participants.
06
Pre-Operative Anxiety
Conclusion: For patients undergoing minor gynecological procedures, the VR intervention brought about a significant reduction in pre-operative anxiety. This finding may be clinically important to benefit patients with high pre-operative anxiety without the use of anxiolytics.
