Sounds fine for people who are resistent to motion sickness.

But, especially in a medical setting, what would they do if the patient became nauseated during surgery? Surely that can't be beneficial.

And lying in bed while all senses tell your body you are stationary and only your eyes say "no, we are actually standing and the world is moving around us" will cause motion sickness. It is a normal response from the body.

So you would be basically switching the sedatives with drugs to combat motion sickness when you want to use VR.

I don't know much about what causes motion sickness - My only experience was when I was developing a game for the Vive and I manually moved the CameraRig. How hard do you have to try to trick the body? Would sitting so your back and head are upright (and legs bent at ~90 degree angle) be enough? What if you were laying down but sitting up?
