Virtual reality therapy offers ‘sustained improvement’ in cancer-related pain
Healio, by Josh Friedman; 4/8/24
Individuals with cancer reported significantly reduced pain immediately following a 10-minute virtual reality (VR) session, study results published in Cancer showed. The findings from the randomized trial suggest that pain reductions associated with VR use are sustainable for up to 24 hours and produced a reduction in pain bothersomeness and destress, according to researchers.
