Placebo Group

Group I: Virtual reality armExperimental Treatment1 Intervention

In the virtual reality intervention, participants will complete the scheduled educational module five times in the week of the intervention. This VR is assisting users in using immersive reality to reduce pain, learning cognitive and behavior self-coping skills and retraining the pain pathways. There are several sessions, which will be delivered using an all-in-one head-mounted display. Each session varies in duration approximately from 3 to 15 minutes.

Group II: Audio Mp4 armPlacebo Group1 Intervention

In the audio intervention, participants will complete the scheduled module 5 times a week of the intervention. The content is similar to that of the VR, which will be delivered by the audio player. Each session varies in duration approximately from 3 to 15 minutes.
