Brain Mechanisms of Virtual Reality Breathing Versus Traditional Mindful Breathing in Pain Modulation: Observational Functional Near-infrared Spectroscopy Study

Xiao-Su Hu et al.

Summary: The study examines the cortical analgesic processes between traditional mindful breathing and virtual reality breathing. Both interventions increased pain thresholds, but had opposite brain mechanisms, with mindful breathing emphasizing interoception and virtual reality breathing emphasizing exteroception. This suggests distinct modulations in the processing of noxious inputs.
