A different way to engage people in addiction recovery
MindTrack 360 is a structured psychosocial programme delivered in immersive VR – giving people a private, focused space to reflect, build skills and move forward alongside existing treatment and recovery
Built through research and collaboration
Real-world evidence
What we saw across the programme
Study sample: N=54. Complete-cases analyses: Anxiety n=30, Wellbeing n=30, Readiness to change n=28
-
Anxiety (HADS) - Lower score = lower anxiety
-
Wellbeing (SWEMBWS) - Higher score = higher wellbeing
-
Readiness to change - Movement towards later stages of change
*Single-arm feasibility study. p values are from complete-case analyses and should not be interpreted as evidence that MindTrack 360 caused the observed changes.
The user experience
A different kind of space for reflection
A consistent theme in service-user feedback is the value of having a private, focused space to think - without distraction or pressure to respond immediately
-
Focus
Immersion helps reduce outside distraction and keeps attention on the session.
-
Privacy
A private space to think about difficult or personal issues.
-
Pace
People can take time with a question rather than feeling pressure to respond right away.
-
Accessibility
Voice-led guidance reduces reliance on reading and writing.
I am more open than I would be to a real person.
Why this matters
Access to addiction support is only part of the picture
Engagement, acceptability and practical delivery matter too
In-person and peer support is valuable, but disclosure anxiety, shame or simply not feeling ready to talk can affect engagement.
Traditional digital programmes can also be easy to disengage from, particularly when they rely heavily on reading, writing and sustained attention.
