Does anyone have knowledge or experience with this Fisher Wallace device? Would it be compatible with red light? Not implying it’s not. I do not know.

“A Critical Review of Cranial Electrotherapy Stimulation for Neuromodulation in Clinical and Non-clinical Samples”

Mixed and not impressive results. Safety is generally established but results are inconsistent and minimal.

Cooling the frontal cortex can reduce insomnia.

“In a double-blind, randomized controlled trial, polysomnographic studies showed that cooling the brain indeed helped patients with insomnia fall asleep faster. Participants received either the cooling device or a sham vestibular stimulation device. A thermoelectric cooling unit transported thermal fluid to a urethane forehead bladder. Temperatures ranged between 57 to 61 degrees Fahrenheit. The device was worn throughout the night and was placed on the forehead 60 minutes before lights were turned out”

There was a specific device used

Reduce activity in the frontal cortex by literally cooling the brain which is said to reduce insomnia. ebbsleep.com/

Reviews of this specific device are poor but the concept of cooling the brain is of interest. And opposite of what I’ve been doing with red light before bed.

I suppose this has been viewed.Recent article of Interest.

Single-cell genomic profiling of human dopamine neurons identifies a population that selectively degenerates in Parkinson’s disease.

Its open access.

[Hidden in reply to MoJoe2]

“Overall, the study results suggested that cell-specific molecular mechanisms played a key role in the selective vulnerability of some DA neuron populations to PD degeneration. These findings could help guide PD-related transcriptomic studies assessing the localization of PD-associated signals to specific human DA subtypes.”

Interesting. Thank you Joe!

Cooling the brain during sleep may be an easy, natural and effective treatment for insomnia

Has anyone tried one of these brain cooling caps to help with insomnia?
