Wear this special headset for just 30 minutes a day and get relief from depression at home! – ..

There is relief news for people suffering from depression. Scientists have developed a special headset, which can provide relief from depression while sitting at home. Research led by King’s College London found that this headset (named Flow FL-100) can improve the condition of depression patients with 30 minutes of daily use.

This headset has two electrodes that send weak electrical shocks directly to the scalp. These shocks activate that part of the brain whose activity reduces due to depression. According to researchers, the use of a headset increases the chances of improvement in people suffering from depression by three times.

What did the research reveal?

A total of 174 patients participated in this research and used this headset at home. Scientists kept an eye on them through video link. Patients had five half-hour sessions a week. This research lasted for three weeks and its results were quite positive. The patients who initially did three sessions also saw improvement in their condition. This research proved that depression can be treated at home and only 30 minutes is enough.
