Alpha-Stim® Patient
Testimonials
 I
have lived with diabetes for forty-four years, since the age of six. I have
also been diagnosed with other autoimmune disorders such as
Epstein-Barr/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Fibromyalgia, and Restless-Leg
Syndrome. These syndromes have caused a multitude of symptoms such as
insomnia, anxiety/depression, and a chronic overall sense of not feeling
well. In April 2004, I underwent emergency surgery due to a spinal
infection. While undergoing physical therapy after my surgery, my physical
therapist suggested that I try the Alpha-Stim® SCS, because she believed it
could help with some of the symptoms that were making my recovery from spine
surgery more difficult; namely, insomnia, RLS, anxiety. She began treating
me with the Alpha-Stim® for twenty minutes, two to three times a week I
noticed a significant difference in my symptoms after only three or four
uses. The most notable change was my ability to remain in deep sleep
throughout the night. I began to notice how well rested I felt upon
awakening. The disruption of sleep caused by Restless-Leg Syndrome also
diminished. I also became aware that when I missed my physical therapy
appointments and had not used the Alpha-Stim® for three or more days, my
symptoms returned. I made the choice to purchase an Alpha-Stim® SCS for my
own use at home. Many insurance companies will cover some of the cost, as
mine did. I started by using it everyday, for one hour, the first two weeks,
as recommended by the maker. After two weeks, I was able to reduce the
number of days, as well as the length of time, to every other day for
one-half hour, which is the schedule I am currently following. I continue to
enjoy deep, restful sleep, with no annoying disruptions from RLS. Sleeping
well at night allows me to feel well rested and more energetic upon
awakening. My anxiety/depression levels have been greatly reduced, and I
have an overall sense of wellness. I would highly recommend the Alpha-Stim®,
for at-home use, to anyone who suffers from similar symptoms. Thank you
Alpha-Stim® for giving myself back to me!
