Using Virtual Reality for Therapeutic Treatment of Phobia

In this paper, we extend the use of Virtual Reality for treating various phobias. Virtual reality is used to therapeutically treat phobias efficiently. The study suggests in phobias the excessive amount of fear doesn't correspond to the potential amount of danger of stimulus. In the trivial therapeutic method, the patient is unable to experience the stimulus as the treatment lacks projection of stimulus, here we use exposure-based treatment for patients by creating a virtual environment. The patients are examined and categorized based on the degree of fear, correspondingly a virtual environment is modeled based on each category. An examination is considered during mediated pathways, which suggest a reduction in the severity of the phobia symptoms during the treatment. The significant changes in the behavior are recorded for iterative refinements.
