Synopsis
From 1 November 2006 to 3 January 2007, visitors to the Mental Health Foundation's website will be able to get free access to 'Depression Relief', an online self-help program that uses cognitive behavioural therapy techniques.

From 1 November 2006 to 3 January 2007, visitors to the Mental Health Foundation's website will be able to get free access to 'Depression Relief', an online self-help program that uses cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) techniques. The program is being made available by Ultrasis, the company that developed 'Beating the Blues', the only computer based treatment for depression recommended by the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) for use in the National Health Service (NHS).

Ultrasis has adapted Beating the Blues to provide Depression Relief, one of four educational and awareness programs that makes up the Relief series, a range of web based, multi media self-help programs about depression, stress, anxiety and insomnia. Used by primary care trusts (PCTs) in the UK and employee healthcare providers in the USA, Depression Relief is suitable for anyone experiencing mild or moderate depression. The confidential program allows users to go at their own pace, learning self-help techniques which can help them manage their condition.

Andrew McCulloch, Chief Executive of the Mental Health Foundation said: "CBT is widely recognised as one of the most effective methods for treating depression, yet there is a major shortage of therapists. Most people who want to try CBT have to join long NHS waiting lists or pay to see a therapist privately. While online CBT is not a replacement for face-to-face therapy, we need to start investigating other supporting treatments that people with mental health problems can use."

Nigel Brabbins, Chief Executive of Ultrasis said: "Mental health problems can have a negative impact on the well being of any one of us. We want people to know that the tools and techniques for prevention and treatment are available without having to wait months to see a therapist. Cost effective online programs need to be more widely available and we hope to reach as many people as possible through the Mental Health Foundation's website who may want help when NHS services are not available."

todays rise is due to shares mag article called " ultrasis looks set to beat winter blues ". it is to long to produce the main point for shareholders is a quote from nb " the product is finished,it is ready to be delivered and it works on the nhs personal computers ). he tells shares." we are being told it is a matter of when and not if "

Ultrasis looks to beat winter blues
If CCBT software helps to meet demand for mental health support, it could make shareholders as well as sufferers from depression more cheerful. Russ Mould looks on the bright side.

A report from the Healthcare Commission on the poor quality of support given to patients with mental health problems could give a further boost to demand for Ultrasis's (ULT:AIM) computerised cognitive behavioural therapy (CCBT) software.

The 20.7 million cap firm has already linked up with the Mental Health Foundation (MHF) to offer free access to an online self-help programme for anyone with mild or moderate depression.

The depression relief programme will be available free for four weeks to anyone who registers on the MHF website in November and December.

Ultrasis chief executive Nigel Brabbins then plans to retail the software, which follows the May acquisition of Healthstar for 2.9 million in shares.

The flagship 'Beating the Blues' program - related to the Depression Relief program - appears well positioned with the NHS, after the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) recommended the software as a treatment for mild and moderate depression.

Beating the Blues is a self-help treatment that features interactive modules, animation and voice overs and has been designed to be used even by those with minimal computer skills.

A government white paper has committed the NHS to providing access to CCBT by March 2007, although budgetary issues and the decision to merge a number of Primary Care Trusts has slowed down the proposed rollout.

The delays have caused Ultrasis's share price to sag from 3.38p to 1.95p, but Brabbins remains convinced a deal will soon be clinched.

'The product is finished, it is ready to be delivered and it works on the NHS's personal computers,' he tells Shares. 'We are being told it is a matter of when and not if,' Brabbins says.

The Healthcare Commission's review found patients do not always have access to 24/7 personal care and support.

Most local mental health teams do offer out-of-hours services but 51% of patients surveyed did not have the phone number of someone whom they could contact after office hours.

Almost three million people in the UK are diagnosed as having depression at any one time.

Mention in Shares mag:
Recomends buying with comment: the risk of delays ( for contracts) remains high and investors will have to patient.

pension thanks for update at least it has been mention in shares now twice in the last few weeks which is better then earlier in the year

I'm tempted but while I have been watching for many months the only product I have seen mentioned is beating the blues.

can anyone say if this is the same product or has it been improved or enhanced in anyway. are there other products the coy sell or in the pipe line ... obviously the principle idea must be a winner but only if the idea is going to be developed to further programs

tipton these are the main products

However, the recent negative change in market sentiment towards IPOs and towards
the AIM market in particular, has resulted in a reduction in forecast corporate
finance revenue for the final quarter of 2006. The Group recognises that AIM is
a market suffering from some indigestion, due in part to the constraints of
limited shareholder access and capacity. This may lead to opportunities and some
consolidation. Evolution intends to be ready to take advantage of this and
support the franchise it has built over the last five years.

Press release 1 November 2006



Ultrasis launches
www.thewellnessshop.co.uk
online retail arm


Ultrasis plc, the interactive healthcare provider, has launched

www.thewellnessshop.co.uk,
an online retail service designed and developed to
address the growing demand for quality healthcare products and services that
help people to be more active in managing their own health and wellbeing.



By going to
www.thewellnessshop.co.uk
people will be able to find affordable
self-help programmes to tackle some of the more common emotional health problems
that people experience in their lives; including depression, anxiety, stress and
sleep problems.



Interactive healthcare, or more simply the use of computer technology to support
people to get better, has recently been the focus of growing attention with the
recommendation by The National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence
(NICE) that one of Ultrasis's programs 'Beating the Blues' should be made
available in the NHS to treat mild and moderate depression because of its proven
clinical efficacy and cost effectiveness.



Technical advances have improved considerably the usability and overall consumer
experience available in interactive healthcare. Tension Taker, an interactive
product from Ultrasis aimed at dealing with stress, anxieties, insomnia and IBS,
uses a biofeedback fingertip sensor to teach people how to manage their anxiety
levels.



Nigel Brabbins, Chief Executive of Ultrasis plc, said: 'With more than 120
million people worldwide suffering from depression, the market for self-help
products is growing substantially, as people become more aware of the need to
seek out new ways to solve their health problems. Our own research indicates
that people are looking for both quality and value; the wellness shop' will
provide this, with the added value of being both completely confidential and
available when people need it. We believe that creating 'the wellness shop'
both creates a substantial opportunity for the Company and will contribute
significantly to the emerging positive health and wellbeing agenda.'
