This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This study is testing whether immersive virtual reality can help older adults who live with chronic pain and fear of movement. Participants in the treatment group will receive up to eight supervised virtual reality sessions over about one month, which may include guided movement practice, calming nature scenes, and interactive activities tailored to their abilities. The goal is to help people feel more confident moving their bodies and improve their quality of life.
Chronic pain in older adults often leads to fear of movement, which causes people to avoid activity and become weaker and more disabled over time. This treatment aims to help people gradually rebuild confidence in their bodies and stay active by using engaging virtual environments in a safe, controlled way.
