Study Summary

Participants with neurological disorders will be recruited to complete sessions of virtual reality (VR) immersion. VR has been shown to have therapeutic benefit in certain patient populations and requires further clinical study to determine the extent to which VR can be used to rehabilitate and reduce symptom burden. This study seeks to pilot newly developed VR methods and collect preliminary data in order to support research grants and inform larger clinical trials. Additionally, this proposed study will explore the tolerability and preliminary efficacy of Virtual Reality (VR), specifically to determine whether VR can acutely reduce the severity of symptom burden caused by neurological disorders.

Primary Outcome

PROMIS - Pain Intensity - Short Form 3a consists of 3 questions -- participants report on the intensity of pain experienced in the past 7 days. Each question is scored between 1 (had no pain) to 5 (very severe). The total score range is 3-15; the higher the score, the more intense the pain.
