Exposure therapy in addiction treatment is most effective when both substance cues and emotional context are realistically presented. The new VR Coach smart system update expands exactly these immersive elements.
Only when a scene feels authentic can exposure therapy unfold its full therapeutic effect.
The VR Coach smart system already includes effective situations such as a private apartment, a supermarket, or a bar with slot machines – places commonly associated with addictive behavior. The latest update brings even more emotionally engaging content:
Apartment scene:
Patients can now use the remote control to switch between ten real radio stations.
This creates new emotional stimuli – whether during a party with guests or a melancholic moment alone on the sofa.
New highlight – The barbecue party
A sunny day, sizzling sausages on the grill, chilled beer and white wine within reach—these are exactly the kinds of situations that trigger strong cravings in many people.
This new VR scenario makes such trigger situations realistically tangible while also providing space to practice alternative behaviors.
What does it mean to have stayed abstinent for a longer time? How does it feel to reach personal goals?
In therapy, it is essential to acknowledge positive development. While VR cannot simulate actual success, it can offer a safe environment for guided reflection, activating feelings of pride, self-efficacy, and emotional stability. These inner resources support patients on their path toward long-term recovery.
