alpha stim
Alpha-Stim® is an FDA-cleared, non-drug, non-surgical medical device that can help allieviate the symptoms of anxiety, insomnia, and depression. It is also clear to be used in the treatment of acute and chronic pain.
Alpha-Stim is a non-invasive, non-drug cranial electrotherapy stimulation (CES) device that uses a unique, patented waveform of electrical current to balance the electrochemical function of the brain in order to improve users’ emotional and physiological states.
Patients apply earclip electrodes that deliver a low-amplitude, rhythmic current to the brain, which helps regulate brain cells’ electrochemical signals and return them to a balanced, normal functioning state.
Many users see results after their first treatment. And because the effects of Alpha-Stim build on the progress of the last session, many Alpha-Stim users see increased levels of relief over time. Moreover, because CES does not involve any medication, Alpha-Stim users are free from the worry of dependence and withdrawal.
Patients who have used Alpha-Stim report:
- Significantly reduced anxiety symptoms after one treatment, and even more after five weeks.1
- After five treatments, military service members with insomnia reported an increase of 43 minutes of sleep.2
- In clinical trials, Alpha-Stim recipients reported an 82% decrease of ≥ 50% or greater in depression scores after five weeks.
For patients living with anxiety, depression, insomnia, and PTS, Alpha-Stim has shown us tremendous results with many of our patients. Schedule a consultation with a Certus Care Provider to learn more, or visit our office to purchase your own Alpha-Stim device to use at home or at work. There are no side effects or downtime.
