The main purposes of this study are as follows:
Compare the effect of painful stimuli with and without Hypnosis and Virtual Reality (HVR) on healthy volunteers.
The control of pain and anxiety in a hospital environment is usually managed by pharmacological means that involve a series of risks and side effects.
For many years, non-drug solutions have been of interest to the public and the care staff. The benefits of hypnosis and of virtual reality are highlighted in many studies and today allow a different approach to medicine. It is important to invest in tools that are less expensive and also effective for the well-being of the patient and the care staff. The use of a blended solution using both clinical hypnosis and virtual reality has been only scarcely documented.

| Compare physiological and neurophysiological changes to painful stimulation with and without Hypnosis and Virtual Reality (HVR) | To understand the effect of VRH on the Physiological and neurophysiological parameters recorded by sensors and captors | During the procedure |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Pain and anxiety | To understand the effect of VRH on the level of pain and anxiety. Pain and anxiety Pain assessed by visual analogue scale (VAS). Participants will record their pain intensity rating on a Visual analogue scale where 0 = No pain and 10 = worst imaginable pain. Subject will record also their level of anxiety on the same VAS | Immediately before and after the procedure |

| Unpleasantness of the pain | To understand the effect of VRH on the level of the unpleasantness of the pain assessed by visual analogue scale. Participants similarly record their pain unpleasantness parting on a VAS where 0= not at all unpleasant and 10= most unpleasantness imaginable. | Immediately after the procedure |
| Absorption, Dissociation, Satisfaction and comfort, presence and cybersickness | To understand the effect of VRH on the level of Absorption, Presence, Dissociation, Satisfaction and comfort assessed by visual analogue scale. Participant record their level of absorption, dissociation, satisfaction and comfort on a VAS where 0 = no absorption, no dissociation, no satisfaction and no comfort at all. 10 is the opposite | Immediately after the procedure |
