Healthy Mind

I highly recommend making it available to all employees, in the form of self-service, with or without a subscription, for regular practice.

We have performed several knee prosthesis surgeries under combined spinal anesthesia and Healthy Mind's therapies without the need for additional sedation. Patients were delighted with the experience and reported not perceiving pain and the surrounding sounds. After the intervention, the recovery was also faster, and the stay in the post-interventional surveillance room was shortened.

We had the opportunity to test Healthy Mind VR throughout the establishment. After receiving very positive feedback, we went ahead with the purchase and now have multiple headsets to use across our sites. This is an amazing piece of technology that takes you to a completely different world where you forget all your stress and anxiety. It's really nice to see this type of technology working in our hospitals. We had a girl who had a phobia of needles. We've seen a procedure go from 2 hours to a few minutes without the need for sedation. That means less time for the clinicians, less stress for her and her parents.

The tool is user-friendly, with a very intuitive setup. Patients value the opportunity to use the tool during surgical procedures. Very positive feedback has been been received across the board from patients.

Since the arrival of the virtual reality headset at our psychiatry departments, we have been offering residents the chance to try it out. Sessions are offered on a regular or occasional basis, depending on their therapeutic needs. We have observed very beneficial effects among the concerned residents such as anxiety and stress relief after the session, a sense of satisfaction, a good impact on the mood, a positive expression and a desire to renew the experience. These residents also see their cognitive functions stimulated (language and memory).The objectives of the sessions have evolved since the arrival of Healthy Mind VR: Reduce anxiety disorders and, consequently, reduce certain behavioral problems linked to anxiety Alleviate depressive symptoms by allowing residents to take a virtual journey away from monotony and feel less confined Stimulate cognitive functions, in particular autobiographical memory and language
