Torment Training and Agony the Board Abilities in Augmented Simulation in the Therapy of On-going Low Back Torment

Dirk Bertens

Chronic low back pain (CLBP) is a prevalent and challenging health issue affecting millions worldwide. Traditional approaches to its treatment often involve a combination of physical therapy, medication, and lifestyle modifications. However, the efficacy of these interventions varies among individuals, prompting the exploration of innovative therapeutic modalities. This abstract focuses on the use of virtual reality (VR) in the treatment of CLBP, specifically targeting torment training and agony management skills within a virtual environment. This abstract reviews recent studies and clinical trials investigating the effectiveness of VR-based torment training and agony management interventions for CLBP. Preliminary findings suggest that incorporating virtual reality into the therapeutic approach for chronic low back pain may lead to improvements in pain intensity, functional capacity, and overall quality of life.
