Siza is a progressive care organization for people with intellectual disabilities. They offer their clients a safe and stimulating environment. To smooth the transition between activities, the Movement Team uses VRelax at the 's Koonings Jaght estate. The one-on-one VR sessions of approximately thirty minutes demonstrably increase relaxation and significantly reduce problem behavior during and after these transitions. As a VRelax leader, Siza demonstrates how smart technology can make the daily lives of both clients and care professionals noticeably calmer and safer.
