Researchers have shown in a new study that electrical stimulation of the brain can be used as an effective treatment for depression. In this method, using a special headset, patients inject a gentle electric current into parts of their brain.
According to the scientific news department of Techna Technology Media, electrical stimulation of the brain activates some areas of the brain that function poorly in people suffering from depression. This activation can help improve mood and reduce symptoms of depression.
In this study, people who used this therapy for 10 weeks experienced a significant improvement in their depression symptoms. Meanwhile, people who used the same device but did not receive an electric current, had less improvement. Patients can easily perform this treatment at home. This treatment method can be effective for people who do not respond to antidepressants. Fewer side effects: Compared to some other treatment methods, electrical brain stimulation has fewer side effects.
Of course, more research is still needed to determine the long-term effectiveness of this method and its effect on different people. Electrical brain stimulation could be a promising treatment option for people suffering from depression. However, before using this method, it is better to consult your doctor.
