Stress Awareness Month: Sky Scenery

Stress is a common factor that can negatively impact our health, especially regarding medical procedures. That's why it's essential to recognize Stress Awareness Month, as it helps raise awareness about the importance of mental well-being. In particular, medical imaging can be a source of anxiety for many patients, as it involves lying in a confined space for an extended period. At NY Imaging, sky screens and wall murals aim to relieve that stress.

Sky screens are an innovative approach that simulates an outdoor environment, making patients feel more relaxed and at ease during their imaging appointment. Patients can redirect negative thoughts, reduce muscle tension, and decrease anxiety levels by having an overhead view of the sky. The use of sky screens in healthcare settings has also been scientifically proven to lower blood pressure, which is a significant factor in reducing stress and anxiety.

NY Imaging's sky screens are a powerful tool that replicates the sensation of being surrounded by nature, which can help patients destress during their appointment. The benefits of using sky screens in healthcare settings are numerous, including faster recovery times and increased patient satisfaction. At NY Imaging, patients can expect a more relaxed and comfortable experience during their imaging appointment, making it a stress-free process.

In addition to sky screens, NY Imaging also incorporates wall murals in their center’s designs. 

The wall murals depict natural scenes that are not only aesthetically pleasing, but also have been shown to have a positive impact on patient well-being.

By using both sky screens and wall murals, NY Imaging is committed to providing patients with a calming and welcoming environment during what can be a stressful and anxiety-inducing time.

As we observe Stress Awareness Month, it's essential to prioritize mental well-being, especially when it comes to diagnostic imaging. With the innovative use of sky screens and wall murals, NY Imaging has found a way to create a more calming experience for patients during their appointments. So, the next time you need an imaging appointment, consider NY Imaging for a more relaxing experience.
