If the pandemic made anything clear, it was that mental health support and treatment are severely limited. However, just as research into Covid-19 accelerated efforts for treatment for other physical illnesses, it also provided a need and opportunity for mental healthcare innovations.
One such exciting development in mental health support comes from Fisher Wallace and its brain stimulation wearable. This FDA-cleared technology helps treat some of the most common and debilitating mental illnesses like depression, anxiety and insomnia. Wearables like what Fisher Wallace is producing are the next stage for healthcare innovation because they effectively treat the problem without the frustrating and often painful side effects that come with many medications.
