Mente

Mente is a soft, easy to use and portable headband that was developed as an autism spectrum disorder treatment to help ASD children better self-regulate. Based on a clinical study published in the July 2018 issue of the prestigious journal Frontiers in Neurology it helps ASD children relax, focus and engage. It is currently in its 4th iteration and there are children who have been using the device for 5 years. The device is being used as an autism treatment by ASD children in more than 15 countries worldwide. Mente is designed to reduce excessive activations of low and high frequency brainwaves, such a Delta and Beta, which can be observed among neurodevelopmental disorders and learning difficulties. Such unbalanced brain patterns can lead to inattention, impulsivity, hyperactivity, obsessing, anxiety, sleep and memory problems. Mente uses audio feedback and earphones to gently guide the brain into a more relaxed state, allowing children to focus better and engage positively with their environment. As the activity of the Delta waves reduces, this autism therapy at home helps the child better engage with their surroundings and self-regulate better.
