HypnoVR : Virtual reality medical hypnosis in the treatment of pain and anxiety
For several months now, Clinique Valmont has been offering its patients medical hypnosis using the HypnoVR virtual reality headset.
HypnoVR has two main objectives:
- Reducing pain
A non-intrusive, non-drug alternative to traditional techniques - Reduce stress and anxiety, promote sleep
The white coat effect, apprehension about the medical procedure, fear of the unknown... Stress and anxiety occur in 60 to 80% of patients during a medical procedure.
The virtual reality headset provides a unique therapeutic multi-sensory immersion experience, combining hypnosis sessions dedicated to the uses of the headset with a virtual reality experience.
