Flow - Depression treatment v2.30.0

Flow represents a significant advancement in the field of understanding and treating depression. Drawing from the most up-to-date research in psychology and neuroscience, this app provides a comprehensive therapy program that can be utilized independently.

Featuring over 50 therapy sessions, Flow covers a wide range of crucial topics including behavioral therapy and lifestyle habits such as meditation, sleep, diet, and exercise. To monitor your progress over time, the app includes the MADRS-s depression test.

When paired with the Flow brain stimulation headset, this app offers a holistic approach to addressing depression. The Flow headset utilizes transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS), a form of stimulation that has long been employed in clinical settings for depression treatment. The unique proposition of Flow lies in its ability to provide access to tDCS remotely, right from the comfort of your own home. To utilize the headset, simply download the accompanying app.

Backed by decades of clinical research and supported by more than 20 randomized double-blind studies, the Flow treatment has received approval as a medical device (CE) in the EU and UK for depression treatment. To order the Flow headset, visit: https://flowneuroscience.com

The program itself consists of over 50 sessions divided into 7 courses. Some noteworthy topics covered in these courses encompass:

• Exercise: Physical exercise has been proven to have comparable effects to antidepressant medication in reducing depressive symptoms. Flow not only advises on which exercises are beneficial but also provides optimal doses for maximum impact.
• Meditation: Practiced globally as a form of mental "exercise" for the brain, meditation is an essential component offered by Flow. The app delivers concrete exercises while offering insights into the neurological foundations behind meditation's efficacy in managing stress.
• Sleep: Flow educates users on the importance of sleep hygiene, explaining why we sleep and how it serves as one of the four critical pillars for overcoming depression. A shocking revelation is that two consecutive nights of just six hours of sleep is equivalent to being awake for a full 24 hours.
• Nutrition: The nutrition sessions provided by Flow offer science-backed advice and encouragement on dietary choices that alleviate inflammation in the brain, thereby helping to mitigate depression. It reveals some eye-opening information, including the detrimental effects of sugar.
