Mixed reality for chronic pain relief
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This study tests a new therapy that uses mixed reality (a type of glasses that shows virtual images over the real world) to help distract you from pain and teach relaxation. It may help people with chronic pain who have not tried VR or MR before.
