Alpha-Stim is an electrotherapy device that has shown to be very effective in treating anxiety, depression, and insomnia. It has also been proven to be a great tool for the purpose of pain management. Users of Alpha-Stim wonʼt need to worry about any side effects or negative reactions to medications being taken
Start Your Recovery Today Click here for a very brief look at the Alpha-Stim deviceAlpha-Stim is a cranial electrotherapy stimulation (CES) device, almost similar in size to a small
cellphone. It is designed to deliver a very tiny microcurrent, through small clips attached to a
personʼs earlobes, to the brain. This current, which is so gentle that few people can feel it, will
then stimulate and adjust a specific set of nerve cells in the brain. CES can bring relief to those who have
anxiety and depression. It can also counter insomnia and improve sleep quality
significantly.
Alpha-Stim treatment usually lasts for 20 minutes and up to an hour, depending on what
the doctor says. Being a portable device, treatment can be done at the office during a long break, in the
privacy of your own home, or at a therapy center. With the clips being small and attached to your ears, you
will look like you are relaxing while listening to music.
Alpha-Stim can also be used to provide
electrical stimulation on areas of the body that is experiencing post-traumatic, acute, or chronic pain for
pain management.
Sending very tiny pulses of electrical current to the brain may sound unsafe, but it is far from dangerous.
The Alpha-Stim device sends out a pulse that is 50 to 500 millionths of an ampere, which is negligible when
compared to the amount used in electroshock therapy.
The tiny pulses of electricity create different
reactions in the brain. CES helps stimulate underactive parts of the brain while calming the more overactive
parts. For example, in the case of people who suffer anxiety, Alpha-Stim will activate the area of the brain
that controls the release of serotonin. At the same time, it will soothe the amygdala, the part of the brain
that processes fear.
Taking medication to treat a condition, both mental and physical, has always been the common course of
action. However, as a person takes medication over a long period of time, they start to build up a slight
resistance to it. And when the dosage is increased to compensate, they may develop an unhealthy dependency
on it. Or worse, they can impact major body organs, like the heart and liver.
Alpha-Stim can be used
in conjunction with taking prescribed medication. It is not intended to replace medication completely.
However, Alpha-Stim can be used as a viable alternative when they donʼt seem to be effective or if a
person has an allergy when taking a specific medicine. Being drug-free, a user of Alpha-Stim will not have
to worry about suffering unwanted side effects or becoming overly dependent.
Alpha-Stim offers users of the device a number of advantages.
