Virtual-Reality Pain Science Positively Impacts Pain, Function, RTW, Customer Experience and ROI: A Case Study

Introducing our second research piece for the Exercise & Sports Science Australia (ESSA), Research to Practice 2024 Conference - Virtual-Reality Pain Science Positively Impacts Pain and Function, Return to Work, Customer Experience and Return on Investment: A Case Study.


This research highlights how our BETTER PAIN VR Program, delivered by Chris Sinclair, Managing Director and Senior Exercise Physiologist, helped an individual recover from persistent pain.

   

Chris will deliver an oral presentation of this exceptional case study, where health, life and work outcomes were achieved through immersive virtual reality pain science technology and coaching.


“Virtual-reality pain science, delivered by an Accredited Exercise Physiologist within the pain mechanisms model, positively impacts pain and function, return to work, and customer experience, with demonstrated return-on-investment.”



This research will be published in the Journal of Clinical Exercise Physiology (JCEP).

2026 National Pain Week

July 27, 2026
2026 National Pain Week This National Pain Week, we are recognising the role pain science education, exercise physiology and professional support can play in helping people living with chronic pain. Coordinated annually by Chronic Pain Australia, the week aims to raise awareness of the 3.6 million Australians living with chronic pain and reduce the stigma surrounding the condition. Pain science uses current scientific evidence to understand pain, why it can persist and what supports recovery. The EXPHYS BETTER Pain Program combines evidence-based pain science, functional upgrading and exercise physiology to support meaningful recovery for people living with chronic pain.
