The device you hold in your hand, (lightweight Bellabee headset with attached cord) is all you need to start making positive changes in your brain function.
LET’S GET STARTED: Step 1. Download the Bellabee PRO app Step 2. Plug your Bellabee FIRMLY into the headphone jack on your device. If you’re using an iPhone 7 or later — you’ll be plugging into the headphone adapter that came with your phone. Step 3. As directed, sign in with either a Facebook or a Gmail account. Step 4. Open either app and view the available modes Step 5. Place the headband on your head with the solid portion (where the cord exits) low at the back of your head just above your neck. Step 6. Choose the desired mode and press Play. IMPORTANT NOTES:
One way to check if the app is working is to test it with headphones. Plug in your headphones, and start the application and you will hear magnetic impulses converted to sound. Plug in your Bellabee instead, and the pulses will become silent, converted instead in your therapeutic session.
At Bellabee, we’ve taken CAREFUL NOTE of some of the initial concerns of our customers. Most QUESTIONS RELATED to an initial uncertainty of whether the device was on and operating properly, since it produces no sound or light when operational. WORKING PRINCIPLES The lack of light, sound, vibrations is entirely intentional. Electromagnetic pulses cannot be seen or heard (and of course, they don’t hurt ☺). But our minds and BODIES RECEIVE THE PULSES AND ADJUST TO THEM. Bellabee is designed so that the application detects whether it’s working or not. As long as the app tells you it’s operational, you’re good to go. We designed Bellabee to be as non-intrusive as possible. The lack of sound and light is by design, so you can do whatever you like while using it - listen to music on a different device, meditate, sleep. To make sure that the device is working, you can PAY ATTENTION to the timer, which is counting down time underneath the circle that says “stop.” As long as the timer is counting down, it is a further indication that it is OPERATING CORRECTLY. USING BELLABEE 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. BENEFITS Bellabee is NOT AN ON/OFF DEVICE, like a light switch, a gadget for which you immediately spot the difference, as soon as you turn it on. You, YOUR MIND AND BODY NEED TO ACCEPT it first, grow accustomed to it, after which point Bellabee will do its job whenever you need it, and WORK EVERY TIME. How quickly your body takes to adjust to Bellabee depends on you. Some users spot the changes the first time they turn it on. Others require more time, perhaps 3-10 sessions. This is normal. As you know, many medicines require some time before they begin to work, and it is really a question of how quickly you allow your mind to accept the “SUGGESTED” RHYTHMS PRODUCED BY BELLABEE. In our testing, once Bellabee begins to work for a new user, it works every time, within minutes, in all settings. So you may need to be a bit patient at the start, but it will be WELL WORTH IT. You should also be aware that you will not feel or hear the impulses from Bellabee—this is normal. Bellabee is working as long as the app indicates as much. My advice to you is: USE IT WHENEVER YOU NEED TO and, in no time, Bellabee will become YOUR DAILY PARTNER.

I’ve just started using it, but don’t know what to expect. What am I supposed to experience? What are your client’s experiences?
It is normal to experience a subtle change in mind state depending on the frequency emitted. For example, a person trying to sleep using the insomnia protocol should slowly and naturally feel sleepier. An anxious person using a protocol such as anti-anxiety should feel a calming sensation and a decrease in anxiety. The symptoms of disorders should noticeably diminish after 2-10 sessions. Changes in frequencies can be detected even sooner on an EEG; sometimes as soon as 5 minutes after the session begins. How can I be sure the device is working? 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. (SpFaq27) Who can use PEMF as far as licensing is concerned? There are no licensing requirements to use Bellabee. In most states within the USA, practitioners are limited to treating mental health disorders in their state, however they are sometimes permitted to work with other therapy modalities impacting peak performance outside of their state of residence. It is best to check with your state/licensing board. Where can you place the device and where are the devices electrodes located? The Bellabee headband is worn with the electromagnetic pulse generator resting against the back of the head, just above the neck, against the cerebellum. The cerebellum fine-tunes the actions of other parts of the brain via nerve pathways (neural networks), guiding the brainwaves to the correct frequency for the desired brain state. How often can/should people use it? People can use it as often as necessary. With continued use, the client will eventually feel more capable of self-regulating themselves as their brain learns the desired frequencies. At that point, the device can be used less frequently. How long does it take for people to feel effects, and are these changes long lasting? This varies from person to person and the disorder under consideration. Sometimes the effects can be felt right after the first session, but for other people it may take up to 20 sessions to notice any effect. With regular use, the brain gradually adapts to the correct state (using neuroplasticity) and requires less input from Bellabee. Would this work as adjunct therapy to neurofeedback, counseling, biofeedback, and other therapies that I already provide? It can be used in combination with the following options to achieve better and faster results:
Some of the purported benefits include help with meditation, sleep, depression, and more, which are all very different things. What possible things could this device do to affect such different conditions? Many mental health conditions are related to brainwave frequencies functioning incorrectly. Several seemingly different mental health conditions develop when the required mental health state does not match the correct brainwave frequency. Bellabee helps correct the condition by suggesting the correct frequency so the brain can achieve the correct state. How is the device emitting a strong enough, and targeted signal, to actually influence the brain? (for example, TMS coils are huge and use a lot of electricity to produce similar effects) The brain works on magnetic fields in the micro-Tesla range with electrical energy signature in milli-watts. Bellabee produces the same kind of magnetic field strength and electrical power, using a frequency rate of 0.5 to 140 Hz, which matches the natural frequency of human brainwaves. To change the frequency of brainwaves), these parameters are sufficient. Bellabee gently coaxes the brainwave frequencies in the right direction. This has been proven by numerous scientific studies. Is PEMF safe? – If I’m going to put something that powerful on my head and let it affect my brain I would have to be convinced that it’s not going to be harmful. (For example, there are TMS studies where they’ve inhibited the prefrontal cortex and people are more susceptible to impulsive behavior. How can you show me that that isn’t going to happen if I don’t wear it correctly, or something else? Because of the minute amount of electromagnetic power used it does not cause burn or electric fog in any area of the brain, including prefrontal cortex, which can happen with high output machines. It’s also FDA, NASA, and Canada Health approved for specific conditions. How are the effects measured (for example can you see changes in the EEG or QEEG)? The changes produced by Bellabee can be seen on EEG and QEEG as a change in amplitude (power) and frequency (speed) in the brainwaves. Changes can be detected as early as 5-10 minutes into a session, with Bellabee on an EEG recording. Is this just placebo? How can we be sure? The statistically significant changes seen on EEG during PEMF therapy sessions prove that the technology can effectively retrain brainwave frequencies. Numerous studies also confirm this. Is this safe for all ages? Can my children use it? Studies have not been conducted to see if it can be used safely for children < 5 years old, or in pregnant/lactating mothers or people with an artificial device implant. It can be used for older children, adolescents, adults and seniors. GENERAL FAQ What is Bellabee (BB)? Bellabee is the world’s first wearable brainwave frequency modulation device that uses PEMF (Pulsed Electro Magnetic Fields) to address brain/mind conditions and improve performance by targeting the normal range of brainwave frequencies. How does Bellabee work? By sending electromagnetic pulses of the desired frequencies, it helps the brain start using the same frequencies. What does Bellabee do? Bellabee gently coaxes the natural frequencies of your brain and body to speed up, slow down or integrate overall brain functions to match your desired mood, enabling you to sleep, focus, relax, or hack into peak flow states. Why do we need Bellabee? Our ability to quickly tap into these brain, body and mind states determines how successful we are at managing stress, staying focused, getting a good night’s sleep, achieving our goals, and maintaining healthy relationships. What is the science behind Bellabee? PEMF therapies have been studied and used around the world for decades. The four main neuroscience principles that make Bellabee work are Brainwave Entrainment, Frequency Following Response, Neuroplasticity and Neuromodulation. These scientific principles have been peer-reviewed in numerous scientific research publications. How does the science work? Bellabee coaxes the brain to match the frequency it produces. It does this using the Frequency Following Response (FFR). Once the brain starts resonating with this frequency, Bellabee coaxes the user’s brainwave frequencies to follow the suggested frequencies using Brainwave Entrainment (BWE.) This ability to alter frequencies is called Neuromodulation (NM). Eventually the brain will begin to use the suggested frequencies on its own due to Neuroplasticity (NP) so the changes will be long-lasting. What are the benefits of Pulsed Electromagnetic Field therapy? Pulsed Electromagnetic Field therapy (PEMF) has helped millions of people improve their overall health and relieve symptoms of various mental health problems. With countless success stories and advances in research each day PEMF is growing in popularity across the globe. How does Bellabee help treat mental conditions? Many mental health conditions are related to brainwave frequencies functioning incorrectly. Mental conditions develop when the required mental health state does not match the correct brainwave frequency. Bellabee helps correct the condition by suggesting the correct frequency so the brain can achieve the correct state. What brain/mind conditions can Bellabee help with? Does Bellabee require specialist supervision? No. It can be used as a stand-alone device or in combination with Neurofeedback (NFB), Psychotherapy, Pharmacotherapy and other treatment methods. Once it is placed on the head in the proper way with the relevant therapy program started it needs no further human input. How can Bellabee be used with other treatment methods? It can be used at home as a neurofeedback exercise and training device, to reduce the dose of pharmaceutical agents (and associated harmful effects of these medicines), to assist between therapy sessions, or to rapidly reach a deep transcended meditative state. Are there any real world cases where it has helped? Around 9,000 NFB professionals have already incorporated this device into their practice and are successfully using it to help their clients. There are more than 20,000 daily users. Our Review page has testimonials written by professionals and customers about how Bellabee has helped treat an assortment of brain conditions: (Link) What inspired the concept behind Bellabee? Believe it or not, the initial research was actually conducted by NASA. When astronauts kept returning home ill and exhausted NASA started to research the magnetic fields and their effects. They discovered that the lack of Earth’s magnetic field was causing problems and that Pulsed Electromagnetic Field (PEMF) devices could be used to keep the astronauts healthy while in space. Once it was discovered that brain disorders were linked to abnormal brainwave patterns it became apparent that PEMF could be used to coax the abnormal frequencies in the brain to the normative state, thereby correcting the symptoms associated with specific conditions. What is the duration of each session? The average duration of one session is 60 minutes. Can I increase or decrease the session duration? Yes, it can be increased or decreased using the Bellabee app. What is the maximum number of sessions at a given time? This is variable. More than 2-3 sessions every 24 hours are not recommended. The total number of sessions can vary depending on the person, condition and response, but you can use it as often as needed while keeping in mind the above parameter. How many sessions are required, on average, to see results? Results can usually be seen after 5-40 sessions. Approximately how many sessions are required in total? This is variable and depends on the condition under consideration and the person. Most people need between 10-60 sessions. Will my brain start using the healthier frequencies over time? Yes. With regular use of the Bellabee, the user’s brain will gradually learn the healthier, more functional frequencies that Bellabee has trained it to use. This is why many users, who initially use Bellabee for help falling asleep, begin to naturally fall asleep at night. Because of Neuroplasticity, the effects are long-lasting so the user won’t need to use the device as often or, in certain cases, at all. What is the frequency range used? The frequency range is from 0.5 Hz to 140 Hz. This is also the range of natural brainwave frequencies. If the frequency range falls within the natural range of brain, it is readily accepted by it. What volume setting should I use for Bellabee? The volume of device should be set to maximum while using Bellabee. Is it safe to use? It is absolutely safe. Because of the minute amount of electromagnetic power used it does not cause burn or electric fog, which can happen with high output machines. It’s also FDA, NASA, and Canada Health approved for specific conditions. Are there any side effects? Side effects of PEMF therapy are mild, temporary, and very few people report them. Generally they go away after a few sessions. They include mild discomfort, headache, nausea/vomiting, and itching at the site. What is the best course of action when side effects happen? You can shorten the session time to 40 minutes (from the 60 minute default) or decrease the mobile device volume setting to 75% (from 100%). Doing this for first few sessions will usually counter the side effects. What if the side effects do not subside? Side effects may persist for people who are hypersensitive to electromagnetic waves. In these cases you can try other forms of treatment. There will always be a percentage of users who are sensitive to a treatment. How do I set-up the Bellabee device? Initial set-up is easy:
How do I know if the device is working? 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. What are the frequency bands of human brainwaves? The most commonly used are as follows:
What is the amount of magnetic energy used in Bellabee? The magnetic energy (strength of magnetic field) used is less than 200 micro-Tesla. By comparison, Trans Cranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) equipment uses between 1-2 Tesla, (1 Tesla (T) = 1,000,000 Microtesla (µT). So the energy used by Bellabee is 5,000 – 10,000 times less then TMS. What is the amount of electrical energy used in Bellabee? The electrical energy used is minimal and similar to what a headphone uses to play music, which is 10-100 mW (1 Watt power = 1,000 milliwatts). What are the contra indications for Bellabee use?
One way to check if the app is working is to test it with headphones. Plug in your headphones, and start the application and you will hear magnetic impulses converted to sound. Plug in your Bellabee instead, and the pulses will become silent, converted instead in your therapeutic session.

My advice to you is: USE IT WHENEVER YOU NEED TO and, in no time, Bellabee will become YOUR DAILY PARTNER. The brain, like any other organ, requires a state of ideal equilibrium to function at an optimal level. This equilibrium is what our internal regulatory mechanisms work to maintain. When any system in the brain or body is out of equilibrium to the point where internal regulatory mechanisms fail, symptoms appear and you need to give external input to correct it.
As you apply an external input, (electromagnetic, chemical or otherwise), the mind and body naturally moves toward the equilibrium state. Over time this (minimal amount of) outside help is all that is required for the internal balancing mechanisms to take up the job and start functioning on their own without external help. Bellabee uses “Frequency Following Response (FFR)” to help the brain move towards the specific state and, after time, start working on its own, decreasing dependency on the device. This is possible because of the characteristic properties of FFR and Neuromodulation (NM), as well as the regenerative and new connectivity features of the brain‘s neuroplasticity (NP) capability. This can happen at a swift pace and can be verified by recording the EEG. Once the brain is in equilibrium state, it tends to remain in this state as it is natural. As symptoms decrease or disappear entirely, it becomes a reward for the brain since the symptoms become an undesirable feature to avoid. One study at Harvard Medical School found that a PEMF device could improve the mood by over %10 after just one 20-minute treatment in patients with bipolar disorder and in patients with major depressive disorder (Rohan, et al).  Is Bellabee safe to use?
It is absolutely safe. Because of the minute amount of electromagnetic power used it does not cause burn or electric fog, which can happen with high output machines.
