30-Minute VR Therapy Session Plan
1. Introduction (5 minutes)
Welcome and Setup:
- Warmly greet participants and introduce the session's purpose.
- Briefly explain how VR works and ensure participants are comfortable and familiar with the equipment.
- Conduct a safety check and demonstrate basic controls (e.g., how to pause or signal for assistance).
2. Immersive Experience (15 minutes)
**Choose Relaxing or Stimulating Experiences:**
- **Nature Walks**: Immerse in serene environments like virtual forests, gardens, or beachscapes for a calming effect.
- **Guided Meditation**: Experience peaceful settings such as a lakeside, with soft, guided breathing exercises for relaxation.
- **Song Therapy**: Incorporate music known for its therapeutic benefits to elevate mood and foster relaxation.
- **Reminiscence Therapy** *(+£20.00, additional 5 minutes)*: Experience nostalgic environments from the past, such as iconic landmarks or streets from the 1950s or 1960s, designed to trigger cherished memories.
**Interaction Opportunities:**
- Engage with the environment by picking virtual flowers, observing birds, or partaking in light interactions.
- Include gentle, gamified elements like collecting stars or uncovering hidden objects for added enjoyment.
- Enjoy a unique, heart-warming experience with personalized videos featuring family photos and heartfelt messages from loved ones abroad, making it feel as though they are right in front of you.
3. Social Interaction (5 minutes)
**Group Discussion:**
- Remove VR headsets and encourage participants to share their immediate impressions or feelings about the experience.
- Use open-ended questions to foster conversation (e.g., “What did you enjoy most?” or “Did this remind you of any past experiences?”).
4. Response Tracking and Feedback (Integrated Throughout)
**Monitoring Tools:**
- **Galvanic Skin Response (GSR) Sensors**: Track skin conductivity to assess emotional arousal and stress.
- **Pulse Oximeters**: Monitor oxygen saturation and heart rate to evaluate physical responses to the experience.
- **Wearable EEG Devices**: Use non-invasive headbands to measure brainwave activity, analyzing engagement and emotional states.
**Reporting:**
- Detailed session reports, including emotional and physical response data, will be sent to the booking and authorized person and can also be shared with family members to keep them informed and involved in the participant’s progress and well-being.
This structured approach ensures participants benefit from a comprehensive, immersive, and responsive VR therapy session, fostering connection, relaxation, and well-being.
