Page 6: Go Flow 4 : Tdcs & Sotdcs Stimulator
GO FLOW TDCS & SOTDCS STIMULATOR Your Foc.us Go Flow 4 is an electrical neurostimulator which is designed to deliver a direct (meaning: constant) current across your cranium. The theory of transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) is that by delivering a constant current into your brain, the excitation levels of your brain cells are altered. -

USAGE INSTRUCTIONS Step by step Go Flow instructions Connect cable & battery Go Flow should remain connected to the 9V battery between uses. Press the RED rocker for 2 seconds to turn on the device in tDCS mode. Tip: Leave the battery connected when not in use Set Current - ORANGE/RED Orange and red lights indicate the current in mA. -
Page 8: Electrode Placements
ELECTRODE PLACEMENTS The effects of tDCS and sotDCS depend on the positioning and polarity of the electrodes. Anodal stimulation induces an increase in cortical excitability under the X electrode. Cathodal stimulation induces an increase in cortical inhibition under the Y electrode. When electrodes are placed on the shoulder or arm, the exact location is less important than when placed on the head, so long as the correct arm/shoulder is used i.e. -

ELECTRODE SETUP DETAILS Step by step connection instructions Wet sponges in amx-y Sponges should be wet. Use the small water bottle to keep water handy. Be careful not to touch the black silicone as this can result in burns. Tip: Add a pinch of salt if you want a saline solution Amx-y electrodes in place The amx-y electrode mushroom tips are designed to fit comfortably through the headband holes. -

Electrical stimulation is cutting edge and many studies are yet to be reproduced by other scientists. Here are three of the most reliable stimulation montages you can try with Go Flow 4. Learn New Skills Faster The ability to sustain attention and maintain goal-directed behaviour for extended periods of time is known as vigilance. -
Page 11: Increased Endurance With Tdcs
INCREASE YOUR ENDURANCE Train harder with tDCS Targeting the pain centers of the brain can increase our tolerance to fatigue. Studies suggest that one way of reducing perceived pain is by stimulating a region of the brain called the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex. Modern sports science believes that endurance is a complex interaction between brain and body. -
