tDCS for depression

Posted by Hugh on July 5, 2014, at 13:45:53

Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation was originally studied as a treatment for depression in the 1960s. Interest in it waned, but it's making a comeback. You can now buy a tDCS unit for $249 (or $139 for a factory refurbished unit). It's called the foc.us
