Alpha-Stim® For Health
Who Developed Alpha-Stim®?
Alpha-Stim® was developed by neurobiologist Dr. Daniel
L. Kirsch. Dr. Kirsch has been a leading pioneer in the field
of electromedicine since 1972. He is a Fellow of the American Institute
of Stress, a Diplomate of the American Academy of Pain Management and a Member
of the International Society for Neuronal Regulation. Dr. Kirsch has served as Clinical
Director of the Center for Pain and Stress-Related Disorders at Columbia-Presbyterian
Medical Center in New York City and the Sports Medicine Group in Santa Monica,
California. He lectures frequently to physicians worldwide on pain and stress management.
Help
with Anxiety, Insomnia and Depression
Alpha-Stim® treats anxiety, insomnia, and depression with microcurrent using a
method
called cranial electrotherapy stimulation (CES). Alpha-Stim® CES treatment is
very simple.
The current is applied by easy to use clips that attach on the ear lobes. Used
just 20 to 40
minutes every day, every other day, or on an as-needed basis, Alpha-Stim® can
help induce
a pleasant, relaxed feeling of well being. Alpha-Stim® is well tolerated and very
safe,
having no significant side effects in more than 4,541 patients involved in
research studies. In
contrast, drugs used in the treatment of mood disorders have been proven to have
a wide
range of undesirable side effects and can be addictive. Unlike drugs,
Alpha-Stim®
CES leaves the mind alert. Anxiety reduction is usually experienced during
treatment.
Insomnia and depression control are generally experienced after two to three
weeks of daily
treatment. CES can also help treat the underlying mood disorders brought on by
chronic pain.
Alpha-Stim® may be used as an adjunct to medication and/or psychotherapy.
After treatment, there are usually no physical limitations imposed so you can
resume normal activities
immediately.
Maintenance of a relaxed, yet alert state is generally achieved with treatments
one to
three times per week. As a result, Alpha-Stim® is suitable for clinical or home
use.
 Pain Relief with Alpha-Stim®
Alpha-Stim® uses microcurrent electrical therapy (MET) for people suffering from
acute,
chronic or postoperative pain. The Alpha-Stim® works with your body on a large
variety of
ailments, including difficult to treat pain problems. The microcurrent
technology
unique to Alpha-Stim® produces residual and cumulative results, which means your
relief
will last and let you resume your normal activities. Specific treatment
protocols for
the most common pain problems are included with the Alpha-Stim® 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.
By using Alpha-Stim® technology in a combination of MET probe stimulation on the
body
near pain sites, plus cranial electrotherapy stimulation (CES) on the head, a
recent survey
of 2,500 patients indicated that 94% of those suffering from arthritis reported
significant
improvement, as did 100% of those suffering from carpal tunnel syndrome, 94% of
those
suffering from chronic fatigue syndrome, 93% of those suffering from chronic
pain at various
sites on their body, 91% of those suffering from fibromyalgia, 98% of those
suffering from migraine headache, 93% of those suffering from back and neck
pain, and 89% of those suffering from temporomandibular disorder (TMD).
