The
Alpha-Stim 100 treats anxiety, depression, and/or insomnia
with microcurrent using a method called cranial electrotherapy
stimulation (CES). The treatment is very simple. The current
is applied by easy to use clip electrodes that attach on
the ear lobes. Used just 20 to 40 minutes every day, every
other day, or on an as-needed basis, it can help induce
a pleasant, relaxed feeling of well being. The Alpha-Stim
100 is well tolerated and very safe in contrast to drugs
used in the treatment of mood disorders, many of which have
been proven to have undesirable side effects and can be
addictive. Unlike drugs, the Alpha-Stim 100 leaves the mind
alert. Anxiety reduction is usually experienced during treatment.
Depression and insomnia control is generally experienced
after one to two weeks of daily treatment. CES can also
help treat the underlying mood disorders associated with
pain.
It may be used as an adjunct to medication and/or psychotherapy.
After treatment, there are usually no physical limitations
imposed so the majority of people can resume normal activities
immediately. Maintenance of a relaxed, yet alert state is
generally achieved with treatments three times per week.
As a result, the Alpha-Stim 100 is suitable for clinical
use.

This second chart was
taken from the same patient after 10 minutes of Alpha-Stim
use. It shows beneficial smoothing of the brain waves
to a normal pattern.

How
does the
Alpha-Stim 100
work?
The
Alpha-Stim 100 is distinct in that it is based on the concept
that the biophysics underlying the bodys biochemistry
also plays a significant role in regulating all of lifes
processes. Doctors are taught that there are about 75 trillion
cells in a human body, each having an electrical potential
across its cell membrane, similar to a battery. Alpha-Stims
proprietary waveform works by moving electrons through the
body and brain at a variety of frequencies, collectively known
as harmonic resonance. This normalizes the electrical activity
of the nervous system and brain as measured by an electroencephalogram
(EEG).
