Anxiety

Cranial electrotherapy stimulation (CES) has been used as a treatment for anxiety in several parts of the world for over a quarter of a century. American medicine has only recently begun to realize its use as a safe and effective treatment. Studies show that cranial electrotherapy treatment yields highly significant reductions in anxiety, whether the patients were in a psychiatric setting, a scholastic setting, an outpatient setting, or an inpatient general hospital setting. Further,while many different kinds of anxiety have been studied, they all responded significantly to CES treatment.

This kind of anxiety typically is not reduced significantly in fewer than 2 or 3 weeks of daily treatments.

Depression

Studies show that reactive depression (that which results from acute changes in the patients life situation such as a job change or divorce) is decreased after 6 days of cranial electrotherapy treat- ment. More deep seated depression (endogeous) in some cases required 3 or more weeks of daily treatment. For this reason, many physicians routinely prescribe a minimum of 2 weeks to a month of daily cranial electrotherapy treatments in depressed patients, Other research has shown that cranial electrotherapy, when used this way is neither habit forming nor addictive. Such patients use it only when they experience an impending medical necessity.

Migraine

Pulses of .5 ms from .5 to 100 Hz generates serotonin & production of endorphin for pain relief. The best results are seen in 3 to 15 days.

Insomnia

Because cranial electrotherapy was originally called 'electrosleep' in European countries, many other American studies were designed to learn whether or not such small amounts of electric currents would actually put people to sleep.That is, just as 50 ma of current -called 'electro- anaesthesia'-put an indi- vidual into anaesthesia so that surgical procedures could be performed, 1ma of Cranial Electrotherapy current was assumed to put them into a normal state of sleep if 'electrosleep'worked. Such studies discovered that while cranial electrotherapy does not necessarily'put a person to sleep'it does accom- plish some very therapeutic changes in the sleep patterns of people who complain of insomnia.

Treatment parameters:- While some patients begin to respond after the second or third day of treat- ment, others do not have their best response with fewer than 14 days of treatments lasting from 15- minutes to `1'hour.The beneficial effects have been measured in some experimental groups for as- long as two months.Some people with insomnia have a habitual pattern of responding to situational - stress with an interruption in their sleep patterns.
