RelieVRx
RelieVRx—first in a new class of non-pharmacological pain treatment
How does it work?
RelieVRx (formerly EaseVRx) is the first and only FDA-authorized at-home immersive virtual reality (VR) pain treatment indicated as adjunctive treatment for chronic lower back pain (CLBP).1,2
RelieVRx is clinically demonstrated to decrease pain severity and pain interference in the lives of patients experiencing CLBP.
Why is it needed?
RelieVRx is a self-directed, at-home program consisting of curriculum grounded in established pain management techniques such as interoception (body awareness), pain distraction, relaxation, and behavior modification.
How does it improve life?
Daily 7-minute immersive VR sessions over 8 weeks engage multiple distinct neurological systems to modulate pain and help your patients develop skills for treating pain in the real world. RelieVRx is easy to use and has high user satisfaction.
