[Webinar] Apollo Neuro’s Emerging Role in Psychedelic Medicine

[Webinar] Apollo Neuro’s Emerging Role in Psychedelic Medicine

Watch the recording of a webinar with Dr. Dave Rabin and Dr. James Leathem: The Importance of Mitigating Patient Anxiety When Administering Psychedelic Medicine.

Over the last year, several ketamine clinics have reached out to share how they have successfully and independently integrated Apollo into their clinical practices as a means to outfit their clinicians and clients with better non-invasive tools to support the healing process.

As an initial step, we co-developed a curriculum and set of materials with some of these clinicians that integrated the Apollo wearable before, during, and after Ketamine sessions. We are incredibly encouraged by the results and are excited to create more data on the emerging role of wearables and expand the opportunity to 20 more clinics.

Apollo Neuro is a wearable device that works by sending low-frequency sound wave vibrations to touch receptors in the skin, which gently stimulate the vagus nerve. When the vagus nerve is activated in this manner, it calms the body and mind, reducing stress and promoting relaxation. Apollo is the first wearable technology used by clinicians to accompany psychedelic medicine experiences to improve client comfort, reduce anxiety, and improve treatment responses, regardless of whether psychotherapy is part of the treatment experience.

The Apollo wearable is the first technology patented to reduce unpleasant/unwanted side effects that arise from ketamine treatment.
