In today’s technology-driven world, digital interactions have become an essential part of daily life for people of all ages. While immersive technologies such as Virtual Reality (VR), Augmented Reality (AR), and digital simulations offer numerous benefits in education, healthcare, entertainment, and work, they can also lead to cybersickness,a set of symptoms resulting from sensory conflict in virtual environments.
This book provides a comprehensive guide to understanding, assessing, and managing cybersickness, with a special focus on the role of occupational therapy in promoting safe and meaningful engagement with digital environments.

Chapter 6 offers OT strategies including habituation, activity modification, environmental adaptation, and graded exposure to support participation and minimize symptoms.
