VISUAL REALITY CAN EDUCATE EACH INDIVIDUAL AT THEIR OWN PACE!! IT IS EXCITING TO BE AT THE EPIS OF THE MOST FANTASTIC EDUCATING TOOL FOR OUR CHILDREN & ANYONE WHO HAS BRAIN PROBLEMS
I HAD 2 OF THE BEST THERAPISTS THAT WORKED WITH ME TO STRENGHTEN MY BODY MY COGNITIVE SKILLS AND MY MEMORY!! USING VR YOU ARE TAKEN TO A CARNIVAL OR FUN ENVIRONMENT & YOU LEARN IN THIS PLEASANT ENVIRONMENT!! YOU LEARN HOW TO RELAX AND TAKE A MEMORIZED LIST OF THINGS AND PULL THEM OFF THE CONVEYER WITH THE SWEEP OF YOUR HAND! I WENT FROM NOT BEING ABLE TO REMEMBER 3 ITEMS TO REMEMBERING 9 ITEMS IN A VERY SHORT TIME BY PRACTICING WITH THIS "GAME"!! YOU REALLY CAN SEE FOR YOURSELF HOW WELL YOU ARE DOING!! I LOVE THAT I CAN PRACTICE ALL WEEK LONG AND IMPROVE MY SKILLS BY MYSELF INSTEAD OF WAITING FOR THE THERAPIST TO HAVE TO FEED ME EVERY EXERCISE!! YOU ARE IN CHARGE OF YOUR OWN GROWTH!! THE MORE YOU PRACTICE, THE BETTER YOU GET! THEY ALSO HAVE AN APP ON THE PHONE WHERE YOU CAN SEE YOUR PROGRESS MORE CLEARLY! THE THERAPISTS THAT I HAD WERE EXCELLENT!! THEY WERE ON ZOOM ON TIME, ENCOURAGING ME AND PUSHING ME FURTHER EACH WEEK!! NO PLACE FOR SLUGS IN THESE CLASSES!! I TOLD MY FRIEND ABOUT VR FOR HER HUSBAND WHO WAS DEPRIVED OF OXYGEN DURING A SURGERY!! OMG!!! THAT DEPRIVES THE BRAIN & CAUSES SEVERE LOSS OF COGNITIVE AND BODY ABILITY!! HE CAN DO THE EXERCISES BY HIMSELF WITH THE VR EQUIPMENT AND IS ENJOYING IT VERY MUCH!! THE MAGIC OF VR IS WHAT IT MAKES LEARNING FUN!!! I DID NOT GET PAID TO WRITE THIS!! I AM NOT ASSOCIATED WITH THIS ORGANIZATION! I WANT TO GET THE WORD OUT FOR ANYONE WHO WANTS OR NEEDS TO EXPAND THEIR MEMORY OR COGNITIVE SKILLS TO LOOK INTO THIS WELL EQUIPPED & RUN ORGANIZATION!!

Dear Carol, You said it best! the MAGIC of VR Therapy! Thank you so much for your all CAPS review with enthusiastic feedback! Yes, we are all about making real changes in people's lives and bringing therapy to where people are- even their living rooms. Thanks for the example of your friend's husband on home oxygen- these are the success stories that are real-life and impactful! The VR environment is unique and one of a kind- We would love to bring access to more people, so, as you offered, please GET THE WORD OUT :) ... (and feel free to share my direct contact info - [email protected]) with your doctors and medical providers. People don't always think of VR as therapeutic, but traditional therapy is not always engaging or effective. Thanks again for writing! Best, Jessica (Clinical Liaison, Provider Relations, Clinical Outcomes)
