Summary
This study tested whether using virtual reality during botulinum toxin injections can lower stress and pain in 42 adults with muscle stiffness from conditions like stroke or multiple sclerosis. Participants wore a VR headset during the procedure, and researchers measured heart rate changes and pain scores. The goal was to see if a simple, non-drug distraction could make the injection experience more comfortable.
