i-motion VTA is the first light and portable EMDR Therapy device to incorporate visual stimulation which research shows has significant contribution to the outcome of EMDR therapy*.
Positioned on the patient’s knees, the device features a light bar that is long enough to facilitate the patient’s eye movements, pulser handles to deliver tactile stimulation, and a set of earphones for audio stimulation. Therapists can choose the best combination of sensory stimulation for each particular patient.

i-motion VTA was designed to optimize the therapeutic process and shorten treatment length through flexibility and adaptability to the needs of the patient.
It features a unique option for timing its operation, so therapists can focus on the psychological process rather than on technicalities.
Another unique feature is an on / off button for the use of patients which provides them with a sense of control that puts them at ease and further accelerates healing.
i-motion VTA was developed by a team of EMDR experts under the leadership of Dr. Udi Oren.
Dr. Oren is an EMDR Institute and EMDR Europe Accredited Trainer who conducted EMDR trainings in 15 different countries around the world, as well as an experienced EMDR therapist with more than two decades of clinical experience.
This makes the i-motion VTA the first device ever to have been developed from within the community, with a deep understanding of the Therapist point of view, specifically from a clinical perspective. Trust imotion VTA – The therapists’ choice.
