How to Use Sooma tDCS

When starting a session, two electrodes are positioned over the stimulation area using a head cap that offers the intuitive usability required in clinical routine. The device ensures that the contact between scalp and electrodes is acceptable. When acceptable contact is achieved, the device allows the user to start the stimulation. Sooma offers several sizes of head caps to accommodate to different head sizes. The whole treatment preparation usually takes less than 5 minutes.

During a stimulation session, direct current is applied directly to the scalp at the stimulation area. The current intensity is 2 mA, which is 400 to 500 times less than in traditional electroconvulsive therapy (ECT).
