How does tactile BLS with bilateralstimulation.io work?
Summary of the video:
- Our buzzers can be used directly with the bilateralstimulation.io website—no download or installation required!
- If you're a client you simply click on the link that your therapist sends you and plug your buzzers into a USB port of your computer.
- If you're a therapist you simply create a new session via bilateralstimulation.io/therapist and then click on "Tactile". If you want to connect your own buzzers click on "Pair your own buzzers" (you might have to first scroll down within the "Tactile" section and click on "I already have bilateralstimulation.io buzzers and want to use them").
- Whoever plugs the buzzers into their computer (i.e. the client when the buzzers are used remotely or the therapist when the buzzers are used in-person) has to use the Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge browser. The tactile therapist controls work from any browser (e.g. also Safari or Firefox), as does our visual and auditory BLS.
