Aaron Gani, CEO of BehaVR, joins Dr. Graham Taylor to discuss virtual reality in behavioral health. BehaVR is a digital medicine company that specializes in virtual experiences to improve mental health. BehaVR has created a multi-session crafted experience to help people connect their mind and the physiological response.  VR offers improved retention, engagement, and a unique approach to therapy, providing clinicians the ability to craft an experience that helps people develop an understanding of their disorder earlier.

In this episode, Aaron Gani, Founder and CEO of BehaVR, joins Virsys12 CEO and Founder Tammy Hawes for a conversation about using virtual reality in healthcare. He shares about the innovative work his company is doing to treat chronic pain and behavioral health conditions and explains why VR is an effective tool for doctors and patients. He also gives perspective on the long-term transformation he expects to see in the wake of COVID-19, as healthcare is forced to shift toward a more consumer-centric model.

On this week's episode of Pain Reframed, Dr. Adriaan Louw and Aaron Gani join Liz and Adam to discuss how BehaVR is using virtual reality to add education, activation and motivation to your pain neuroscience education.
