Summary

This trial tests whether adding immersive virtual reality sessions to standard pelvic floor muscle training improves quality of life for postmenopausal women with urinary incontinence. Participants receive either standard therapy alone or the same therapy preceded by 20-minute VR sessions featuring a calming garden and guided breathing. The study aims to see if the VR-enhanced approach leads to better outcomes in how incontinence affects daily life.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
immersive virtual reality therapy using the VRTierOne system
What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a simple, drug-free way to boost the benefits of standard pelvic floor therapy for urinary incontinence.
What could go wrong
This is a small, non-randomized study with only 40 participants, so results may not apply widely. The VR sessions add time to treatment and may not provide lasting improvement.
