Abstract
Mental health refers to our cognitive, behavioral, and emotional well-being—it is all about how we think, feel, and behave. The term “mental health” is sometimes used to mean an absence of a mental disorder. Neurological disorders with symptoms such as chronic pain, depression, and insomnia are widespread. Very weak electric fields applied through the skull can enhance or diminish neural activity and modulate brain waves in order to treat many of these common medical problems. This approach is to be contrasted with well-established pharmacological methods or more recent invasive electrical Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) techniques that require surgery to insert electrodes deep into the brain. We claim that Non-Invasive Brain Stimulation (NIBS) will provide new treatment methods with much greater simplicity, lower cost, improved safety, and in some cases, possibly greater effectiveness.
