You can't even read during treatment? The article doesn't suggest it's meditation-like but I know it surely doesn't cover everything.

You can but you're told not to because you have to focus on the music and the sensation of the electric tingles on your tongue. So no I think it would be hard to read during it. It requires full mindfulness to get the best gain. Additionally, you cannot listen to it before bed, or in bed since it might put you to sleep. It's very soothing. But basically, it's an hour of meditation daily.
