Zapping the Brain with Ultrasound Might Be Key to Curing Addiction

WE’LL TRY ANYTHING –

Nov. 4, 2024 –  That’s according to new research of a $1 million helmet-like device that beams these high frequency waves at a key part of the brain that’s responsible for reward, motivation and addiction.

John Hilton’s brain was zapped for about 30 minutes while he observed images of heroin being cooked on a spoon and injected into an arm.

Once the process was done, Hilton said the need to use ‘just wasn’t there.’

The new method is an FDA-approved medical procedure that involves inserting tiny electrodes into two small holes drilled in the skull and inserting them into the reward area of the brain.
