Abstract
A method and system for providing stimulation to a user, the method including: transitioning a stimulation device from a baseline state to a first impedance monitoring state; during the first impedance monitoring state, guiding, an adjustment of a position of the stimulation device at a head region of the user to satisfy a first impedance criterion; upon satisfaction of the first impedance criterion, transitioning the stimulation device from the first impedance monitoring state to a stimulation regime that comprises a second monitoring state having a second criterion; upon detection of failure to satisfy the second criterion, transitioning the stimulation device from the stimulation regime to the first impedance monitoring state; and upon detecting that a third impedance criterion of the first impedance monitoring state is satisfied, transitioning the stimulation device from the first impedance monitoring state to the stimulation regime.
