Design innovative treatments and tools to offer the most personalized support possible to the patient
In terms of psychiatry, the treatments and support offered to patients are not always 100% efficient.. The reality is that in most cases, the methods and solutions used can still be improved.
Groupe SINOUÉ’s ambition and philosophy are to offer innovative and personalized treatments and support to its patients. It is for this reason that innovation is at the heart of the group’s strategy and that we are continually working on experimental treatments to improve patient care.
Here, below, are some innovative treatments and accompaniments, currently being developed within the establishments of Groupe SINOUÉ.
Virtual Reality Therapy, or VRT is the future of phobia treatment. They are already available in some of our facilities.
They are intended for patients with specific phobias (fear of planes, heights, certain animals, the car, closed places, vomiting …), social phobia, agoraphobia (fear of making a panic attack in some places).
Cognitive Behavioral Therapies (CBT) are the standard treatment for anxiety disorders, and in particular for phobias. They consist in gradually exposing the patient to the object of his phobia in order to accustom him to it and possibly make the fear disappear. This is usually done in the office, or in the patient’s usual environment. However, this type of process has limits because many patients are too afraid to benefit from it. VRT can then allow them to push their limits.
Indeed, VRT benefit from scientific validation, and allow the creation of many phobogenic situations. These methods also allow for ease of exposure to the object of the phobia, accompanied by a therapist.
