The Flow Neuroscience Low-Mood Treatment Headset
Designed and engineered in Sweden, the Flow Headset is a non-invasive low mood treatment.
Flow works by gently stimulating areas of the brain associated with low mood, while the Flow app guides each session and tracks your progress. Together, they form a non-invasive, evidence-based treatment you can follow from home.
We recommend that anyone with low mood should also seek professional guidance from a doctor or therapist.

Feel the difference in 3 weeks.
For lasting results, continue treatment for at least 6 months.
Most people begin to notice an improvement in their symptoms after about 3 weeks.
However, research shows that the first 6-12 months following a successful treatment are critical for preventing a relapse.
During this time, the brain can be more susceptible to returning to depressive patterns.
Continuing treatment with Flow for at least 6 months helps to secure your progress and supports the long-term recovery of your brain.
- More frequent stimulation sessions to initiate brain changes.
- Use the headset 5 times a week for the first 3 weeks.
- Regular maintenance sessions to build on initial progress.
- Continue the treatment, reducing to 2 sessions per week until the 10-week treatment cycle is complete.
- From week 10, you can increase the number of sessions if needed
- Or continue with 2 sessions per week to maintain your progress.

Proven symptom improvement
after 10 weeks with Flow.
A rigorous clinical study showed significant improvements after a 10-week course of treatment. In this randomised, placebo-controlled trial—the gold standard in medical research—users experienced measurable improvements across all recorded symptoms1.
No serious side effects.
Your safety is our priority.
In over two decades of research into tDCS (the technology used by Flow), no serious side effects have been reported. This excellent safety profile is why Flow is approved for use without a prescription.
The treatment is generally very well tolerated. In rare cases, mild, temporary side effects that subside on their own may occur.
These typically include temporary skin irritation, such as redness or itching. Even more rarely, tiredness, headaches, tinnitus, or a brief increase in anxiety may occur.
