Some Vital Facts
Overweight and obesity are serious, chronic medical

conditions. They are also among the most complex and difficult problems
to treat. Diseases and conditions associated with overweight and obesity

generated audiovisual systems developed by scientists, hypnotherapists
and IT/media specialists at Virtual Medicine Pty Ltd (Australia).
State of the Art Technology
The Virtual Reality Therapy system consists of three key state of the
art components to help induce an altered state:
- An audio visual headset delivers crystal clear sound
and vision while removing all external stimuli.
- The headset is compact and unencumbering, allowing
for use in any environment.
- A compact on-board computer equipped with an
in-built screen and speaker allows the therapist to monitor the progress
of the program while in use.
