Brief Summary:
Periprocedural anxiety is a common problem for patients who undergo interventional pain procedures Virtual Reality VR is an immersive experience that has gained acceptance in the medical field as a tool for reducing anxiety and pain for patientsResearch Aim
To evaluate the effect of immersive virtual reality VR on periprocedural anxiety related to therapeutic cervical epidural steroid injections ESI
The investigators hypothesize that immersive virtual reality will result in a clinically meaningful anxiety reduction defined as the proportion of participants with 50 reduction in Numeric Rating Scale NRS anxiety scores when compared to participants in the non-treatment group who will have standard preprocedural waiting time conditions in clinic but no VR experience Similarly the investigators hypothesize a significant reduction in objective sympathetic tone as measured by skin sympathetic nerve activity SKNA
