Nettle Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation Device

We are one of the first providers in the U.S. to offer the use of a Nettle Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation Device (tDCS) Headband (pictured left). Nettle is the only medically-certified, hormone-free & drug-free treatment for PMS and menstrual pain.

Sessions with us are 30 minutes and include us placing the headband on your head, while you wear it for 20 minutes and relax in our office. We then will help you remove the headband and can provide a quick 5 minute scalp massage (only if desired). There is water used with the Nettle, so your head, hair, or face may be a little wet. We will provide towels, hair dryer, and hair brushes for you to use after your session.

Nettle is a neurotechnology headband from the UK that delivers PMS and period pain relief

During your luteal phase, hormonal shifts disrupt brain regions that regulate emotions and pain, causing low mood, mood swings, irritability, and brain fog - otherwise known as premenstrual syndrome (PMS) - and period cramps.

Nettle™ restores balance with gentle, targeted pulses. Two electrodes stimulate the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) to improve emotional regulation, while two others activate the insula via the motor cortex (M1) to ease pain.

By mimicking the brain's activity during the follicular phase, Nettle helps you regain clarity, comfort, and control throughout your cycle, and be in control, with just 20 minutes a day in your luteal phase.
