Alpha-Stim Treatment
Treat Pain, Anxiety, Depression, Insomnia
Life can be brutal… why suffer? Freedom from pain…of the body and mind.
Absolutely nothing relieves pain, anxiety, depression, and/or insomnia like Alpha-Stim 100. Inspired by recent advances in our understanding of biophysics, the Alpha-Stim 100′s theraputic abilities have been acclaimed by health care professionals and patients world wide. Results gained from the Alpha-Stim 100 have been repeatedly verified through more clinical studies than with any other device in its class.
Treating Pain with MET
The Alpha-Stim 100 uses microcurrent electrical therapy (MET) for those suffering from acute, chronic or postoperative pain. The Alpha-Stim 100 works with the body on a large variety of ailments, including difficult-to-treat problems. Alpha-Stim 100 microcurrent technology produces residual and cumulative results, far superior to previous traditional milliampere transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) devices. Turn a TENS off and the pain returns.
Although broadly classified as a TENS, the Alpha-Stim 100 is significantly superior because MET works with tiny currents, closer to the type and amount of electricity that naturally occurs in the body. By comparison, the electric current used by typical TENS devices is thousands of times greater than natural body current. Although a slight tingling sensation is sometimes felt under the electrodes, it is not necessary to feel this in order to achieve results. Many people feel nothing at all with the Alpha-Stim 100 except positive results. MET is applied through easy to use probes or self-adhesive electrodes. Specific treatment protocols are introduced with the Alpha-Stim 100 and technical assistance is readily available by telephone, fax, e-mail or mail. Alpha-Stim technology is backed by more independent research than any other device in its class.
Treating anxiety, depression, and/or insomnia with ces
The Apha-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 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 or home use.
EEG Before Treatment
This first chart shows a typical pain patient’s brain waves averaged over two minutes. This is an abnormal frequency pattern.
EEG After Treatment
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.
