Virtual Reality Therapy for Mild Brain Injury and Trauma Symptoms

ReVIVE is a clinical trial testing a new approach to help veterans recover from mild traumatic brain injuries (concussions) and trauma-related stress. The study combines virtual reality therapy with standard care—like talk therapy and medications you may already be receiving—to see if the combination helps people regain focus, manage stress responses, and return to daily activities more successfully.

Many veterans struggle with ongoing symptoms after concussions, including trouble concentrating and feeling constantly on alert. This trial exists because researchers believe that virtual reality—which lets people practice coping skills in safe, controlled situations—might help these symptoms better than treatment alone.
