Veling needed evidence that the video actually helped people. So he started a small
experiment to see if virtually swimming with dolphins helped his patients relax. To test this, he
had his patients watch the video through a VR headset. At the same time, Veling watches them for
signs of stress. He counts how fast his patients’ hearts beat. He also measures whether
they’re tensing their muscles and how much they sweat. A rapid heartbeat, muscle tension and
sweating are signs that someone is not very relaxed, he says. He cannot say with certainty
that the VR sessions are helpful. He’s still gathering data. But he does hope to have some answers
soon. Veling plans to make the dolphin immersion video available to the public in the next year so
that anyone with a VR headset can try it at home. He hopes it will be a new way for people to relax.
