mousse. Please remember that electrodes will be placed on your

Therefore keep in mind that we will need to know in advance about
any hair weaves, and/or hair pieces which would need to be removed
to access the scalp.
• Proper and comfortable sleep attire is required. MEN
must wear both a top and a bottom, other than underwear. WOMEN
we suggest wearing something that is two-pieced (i.e. T-shirt
and shorts or comfortable pants.) Slippers and robe for walking
to and from bathrooms may also be helpful.
• Bring any medication you may need.
• You may feel more comfortable away from home with your
own pillow. Please feel free also to bring in books or magazines
for relaxation and to fill free time.
• We have a shower onsite and towels are provided. Bring
any necessary personal toiletries, i.e. soap, shampoo, toothbrush.
• NO SMOKING is allowed on the premises.

While we try to make you as comfortable as possible, please
remember this is a medical facility and there are specific policies
we must follow to ensure your safety as a patient.
