Boston-based virtual reality platform XRHealth and Barcelona-based Amelia Virtual Care, a VR platform for mental health professionals, announced their intention to merge into one company under the XRHealth brand name.
XRHealth’s platform allows patients on the autism spectrum and those with stress and anxiety, chronic pain, fibromyalgia and neurological conditions to connect with a provider via telehealth and receive recommended therapies on a virtual reality headset sent to the patient’s home, Mobi Health News reports. Data is collected and transferred to the provider, and patients can track their process via XRHealth’s mobile app.
Amelia Virtual Care, formerly Psious VR, offers a virtual reality platform for mental health professionals to perform assessments and provide interventions, such as mindfulness, relaxation, gradual exposure and psychoeducation.
The finalization of the merger is subject to shareholder approval from both companies. Read more.
