The health app has a unique proprietary algorithm that overcomes the barrier of limited access to experts. The app uses techniques of cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) and mindfulness to help solve problems caused by stress, anxiety and other emotional or mental health issues in the comfort of their own homes without the fear of stigma.
