A new breakthrough in depression treatment may soon provide mental health relief from the comfort of your own couch. Researchers have found that a device delivering mild electrical stimulation to the brain can safely and effectively treat depression symptoms — and patients can use it themselves without needing to visit a clinic.

A device that delivers a small electrical current to the brain has beneficial effects in cases of depression that doesn't respond to drugs or therapy.

At-home brain stimulation therapy can safely and effectively treat severe to moderate depression, a new clinical trial shows.

This study highlights the efficacy of home-based tDCS in treating major depressive disorder, with significant improvements in depressive symptoms and remission.

Through a technique called transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS), the Flow headset stimulates the region of the prefrontal cortex linked with low activity in patients suffering from depression,

A new study suggests that people suffering from a bout of clinical depression might someday don a headset and administer a light electrical current to their brain to ease symptoms. Researchers say a clinical trial involving more than 170 people in the US and UK showed promise toward that end,

A device that delivers direct stimulation to the brain was found to be a safe and effective means of treating depression at home, according to a study by researchers at UTHealth Houston; the Institute of Psychiatry,
