How can I stimulate more often?

Modified on Tue, 3 Dec at 1:07 AM

The Flow treatment schedule consists of two phases: the Activation Phase and the Strengthening Phase.

  • Activation Phase (Week 1-3): 5 sessions per week

  • Strengthening Phase (Week 4 and beyond): Up to 2 sessions per week

This schedule is established on what is proven to be safe and effective in clinical trials. In the future, we aim to offer multiple treatment schedule options, but currently, this is the only schedule we can provide. If you're in the Strengthening Phase and wish to have more than the permitted 2 sessions per week, there are several options available for you.


Restart Your Treatment Schedule

If you have stimulated 2 times or less per week in the last 6 weeks, you can restart your treatment schedule. This enables you to repeat the Activation Phase (5 sessions per week for 3 weeks). If you meet the eligibility criteria, follow these steps:

  • Tap the Schedule icon in the bottom navigation bar
  • Tap the 'i' icon in the top-right corner
  • Tap the 'Restarting my stimulation schedule' FAQ
  • Tap 'Restart Stimulation Schedule
  • Tap 'Yes'

If the Reset Schedule button is greyed out, it indicates that resetting the schedule is not currently possible as it falls outside the allowed timeframe.


Tailored Treatment Plan from Your Doctor via the Flow Clinician Portal

Your doctor can create a customised treatment schedule for you, allowing for more flexibility in your stimulation. This approach is possible because your doctor can thoroughly evaluate your unique situation, taking into account your depression treatment and medical history. To initiate this process, your doctor simply needs to request access to our Clinician Patient Platform (CPP) at [email protected]. Through this portal, they can customise your treatment and remotely monitor and track your progress. Flow does not charge a fee for this service.


Remote Monitoring through a Partner Clinic

If your doctor cannot provide remote monitoring, we've compiled a directory of clinics experienced with Flow which can offer personalised adjustments to your stimulation schedule: Find a Clinic Familiar with Flow. Please note that as we are not directly affiliated with these clinics, there might be an extra fee for their services. Please contact them directly to enquire about pricing and program details.
