Frequently Asked Questions

To optimize your experience with the Bellabee therapy app, it's recommended to utilize it consistently for at least one month. Just like taking medication, a period of initial usage is necessary for the therapy to begin yielding results. While some users may experience improvements as early as the first session, individual outcomes may vary. Keep in mind that Bellabee is a therapy, and like any other therapeutic approach, it requires some time to unleash its full potential. 

Bellabee was designed to be completely non-intrusive so there is no light, sound, or vibration when it is in use. There are two ways to check if it is working. First, check the mobile device screen once you’ve activated the program. If the time is counting down, then it is working. You can also connect a headphone while the app is running. If it produces a clicking sound, the device is working. 

To achieve the best results, it's essential to place the Bellabee device correctly. The white band should be positioned at the back of your skull, where it meets the top of your neck, against the cerebellum. Experiment with different positions until you find the optimal placement that feels comfortable and secure. 

You can use your smartphone or tablet while you are using Bellabee. The application should work in the background, no matter what you are doing on your phone or tablet, even when your screen goes to "sleep." The only exceptions are active calls and applications that use audio channel. 

Yes, you can use Bellabee as many times as you like and for as long as you find it beneficial. Most Bellabee programs run for one hour, but you can customize your sessions to meet your needs. 

For example, if you have an important exam coming up, you can use Bellabee to reduce stress before the exam and wear it while studying to help you stay focused. With Bellabee's comfortable and discreet design, you can easily integrate it into your daily routine to help manage stress and anxiety throughout the day.

Yes, you can continue taking your medication while using Bellabee. In fact, Bellabee may even enhance the effectiveness of your medication and decrease the side effects. Bellabee therapy is a complementary approach, and it is designed to work alongside traditional medical treatments. 

With Bellabee, you may find that you can reduce your dependence on medication over time, but it is important to follow the guidance of your healthcare provider. 

The biggest concern when it comes to medtech devices is usually whether they are safe to use. Bellabee employs technology that has been used for almost 50 years in neuroscience and wellness with proven benefits. 

The brain functions by using different frequencies, which are categorized by neuroscience, to indicate specific functions. Abnormal frequencies can lead to problems such as insomnia, attention deficit disorders, and depression. 

Brain problems can occur when there is an imbalance or dysfunction in the different frequency bands of brain waves, such as alpha, beta, theta, delta, and gamma. For example, too much or too little of a certain frequency can lead to problems in cognitive and emotional functioning. 

Low concentration, also known as attention deficit, is a common problem among children and is thought to involve disruptions in the normal patterns of neural activity, or brain oscillations, in various regions of the brain. Research has suggested that certain frequencies of brain oscillations may be decreased or altered in children with low concentration.

1. Alpha-frequency (8-12 Hz) oscillations in the prefrontal cortex have been found to be decreased in children with low concentration, particularly in the left hemisphere. This may be related to difficulties with attentional control and the ability to suppress distracting information.
2. Theta-frequency (4-8 Hz) oscillations in the hippocampus have been found to be decreased in children with low concentration. This may be related to difficulties with memory consolidation and spatial navigation.
3. Beta-frequency (12-30 Hz) oscillations in the frontal and parietal lobes have been found to be decreased in children with low concentration. This may be related to difficulties with processing information and decision making.

Depression is a complex disorder that is thought to involve disruptions in the normal patterns of neural activity, or brain oscillations, in various regions of the brain. Research has suggested that certain frequencies of brain oscillations may be decreased or altered in individuals with depression.

1. Alpha-frequency (8-12 Hz) oscillations in the prefrontal cortex have been found to be decreased in individuals with depression, particularly in the left hemisphere. This may be related to the reduced ability to suppress distracting information and difficulties with attentional control.
2. Theta-frequency (4-8 Hz) oscillations in the hippocampus have been found to be decreased in individuals with depression. This may be related to the reduced ability to consolidate memories and spatial navigation.
3. Gamma-frequency (30-100 Hz) oscillations in the prefrontal cortex have been found to be decreased in individuals with depression. This may be related to the reduced ability to bind information from different sources and difficulties with perception.

One of the great advantages of Bellabee is that it is safe and suitable for people of all ages, from children to the elderly. Unlike some other treatments or medications that may have age restrictions or side effects, Bellabee can be used whenever needed to help promote better sleep and overall health.

Whether you're a busy professional, a student with a heavy workload, or someone who simply struggles to relax and get a good night's sleep, Bellabee can help
