We began by tackling chronic pain—one of today’s most urgent public health crises, impacting more than 72 million adults in the U.S. living with chronic lower back pain often treated through surgery or prescription drugs.1-4 Through rigorous clinical research, we’ve demonstrated that our immersive therapeutic is an effective, evidence-based alternative and are now expanding this innovative approach to new indications.

Filling The Care Gap
For Veterans

Chronic pain and mental illness affect veterans at alarming rates. Nearly one in three lives with chronic pain, and more than half of those with PTSD also experience it. This powerful overlap not only reduces quality of life but also makes chronic pain the leading risk factor for suicide among U.S. veterans.
