DEVICE DESCRIPTION

Evolv28 is the state-of-art mental well being device with a multi-coil structure and a sleek design with intuitive mobile app, which makes it one of the most user-friendly neurostimulation devices on the market. It helps you get into the desired state of mind by emitting scientifically supported frequencies through magnetoelectric fields. The brain synchronizes with these frequencies to help you relax, enhance focus, energize body and mind, fall asleep quicker and meditate better. With appropriate positioning of the coils inside the device that generate magnetoelectric fields, we precisely target specific regions of the brain close to the neck to get the desired effect.

Who CAN and CAN’T Use Evolv28

CAN: Evolv28 has been developed for the general public to safely and effectively induce many different brainwave states. The key benefit of using Evolv28 is expected to be better living. When brainwave entrainment is regularly and properly applied, the expected results are a better quality of sleep and easier reaching of specific awake states, as well as improved emotional and logical intelligence.

CAN’T: The use of Evolv28 device is contraindicated in people with pacemakers or other electronic implants, non-MRI-safe IUD’s, cochlear implants, or mechanical heart valves because the magnetic field can shut the device off or otherwise interfere with its functioning. You also shouldn’t use Evolv28 if you have epilepsy, Graves’ disease, or in the case of active bleeding.

This device is also contraindicated in organ transplant patients due to a possible risk of affecting the immune suppression/rejection process. There is a chance that magnetoelectric fields may stimulate or activate a more aggressive rejection process by stimulating the immune system. The safety of magnetoelectric fields has not been established in pregnancy, although there is no evidence of harm. We advise against using Evolv28 during pregnancy. Patients should consult their doctors when thinking about using Evolv28 with conventional medical treatment. This information is not a substitute for professional medical advice.

It is important to know that we are always here for you. If you have any questions, please contact us through our social media (FB) or by email that can be found on our website.
The LED indicator is not working. Recharge the battery. Check the USB cable.

The device has been exposed to excessive amounts of water

Evolv28 is not designed to be waterproof, although exposure to water for a very short period of time may not permanently damage the device. If Evolv28 has been exposed to water, recovery may be possible by placing the unit in a sealed bag or a container with dry uncooked rice for 2 to 3 days. The rice will act as a desiccant and slowly remove the moisture.

Evolv28 fails to help the problem for which it was purchased

First, verify that Evolv28 is functioning. Make sure that the battery is fully functional for the whole duration of program, each time it is used. Make sure the LED lights are functioning and that the white light is blinking during program play. Contact us through our social media (FB) accounts or by email about using Evolv28. It is possible that the neckband has been placed incorrectly. It is also possible that the period of use has not been long enough for the desired effect to be seen. Consider using Evolv28 regularly for 2 to 3 weeks. Beneficial effects are usually seen within the first few days.

Evolv28 seems to help, but then the problem eventually comes back

If the problem is recurrent when used for short durations, try using Evolv28 for longer periods to sustain the beneficial effects.
