Treatment of Anorexia Nervosa through Virtual Reality
Inspire Academy

Have a look at an interesting lecture held by Mariarca Ascione, a PhD. candidate from Barcelona University, at the New Technologies and Mental Health workshop, which was part of the 2024 Mezi ploty festival. Anorexia nervosa is a serious disorder with high mortality rates. The lecture will show you how exposure therapy using virtual reality can reduce body image dissatisfaction and fear of gaining weight, thus significantly contributing to a better health condition in anorexia sufferers.
You can also download the text of the lecture (in English or Czech) together with a PDF presentation.
