Virtual Reality

Tunnel vision...hyper tension....heart palpitations. All of these symptoms are just a few things people may feel at the thought of going to an airport. One girl that was so afraid to fly started to cringe, & dashed out the door of the airplane as they were closing it. One of the reasons people have a fear of flying is because they have a fear of their own behavior once they're on a flight. Virtual Reality is a good solution. It offers clients the opportunity to experience fearful situations in the safety of the office. Therefore, theres no need to take xanax as this training is in a controlled environment. State of the art equipment combined with professional guidance teaches clients to reduce anxiety & panic. Fear and phobias are overcome by including virtual reality and biofeed back/cognitive behavioral therapy techniques through a process known as counter-conditioning.



So what is virtual reality? Do you know where you are? I bet you actually do know what your doing at any moment in time because of your five senses such as vision, hearing, smell,taste, & touch. These five senses are constantly sending a flow of information to your brain. This information is what we call the brain's sensory, or perceptual input. Virtual reality tries to persuade your brain into thinking your'e somewhere else in the world. So why use virtual reality training? Virtual reality is used by the military to train pilots, its used by the airlines to train pilots, used by doctors for some medical training, & it could be used by therapist for helping to overcome phobias in a controlled environment. It mimics the sounds, & display like being in an actual airport. We offer virtual reality training included when you purchase to register for our fear of flying class.

Disclaimer: It is recommend that you consult a therapist before doing any virtual reality training.
