Virtual reality tested to ease pain and speed recovery after back surgery

NCT ID NCT07204197

Summary

This study is testing whether adding virtual reality exercises to standard physical therapy helps people recover better after surgery for a herniated disc in the lower back. Researchers will compare two groups: one doing standard therapy and another doing standard therapy plus VR exercises. They want to see if the VR group experiences less pain, recovers function faster, and feels less anxious about moving after surgery.
