Abstract

Virtual reality can be used for psychotherapeutic purposes. Our main objective is to assess the feasibility and the tolerance of a relaxation therapy in virtual reality from patients suffering from schizophrenia, by studying the risks of symptoms of depersonalization or cybersickness. It is a prospective, open, five-week clinical study. Evaluations were carried out before and after each session. They were 13 patients aged 18 to 65. Analyzes showed a good tolerance and acceptance regarding virtual reality and anxiolytic effects have been observed between baseline values and those obtained after the first session and after the fifth session (p < 0.05).
