Anxiety in Substance Abusers: Cranial Electro stimulation Reported to Helped: In a DB sham-controlled study of 40 inpatient alcohol and/or polydrug users with an additional 20 patients serving as normal hospital routine controls, CES-treated patients showed significantly greater improvement on all anxiety measures than did either control group.

Closed Head Injury: Cranial Electro stimulation Claimed of Benefit: In a controlled study of 15 closed-head-injured patients, cranial electro stimulation for 45 min daily, 4 days a week for 3 weeks, responded significantly on all negative mood factors of the Profile Of Mood States. While the majority of the patients were known seizure cases, no patient suffered a seizure during CES therapy. No placebo effects were found, nor were any negative effects from CES treatment seen.

Brain Inj 1994 May-Jun;8(4):357-61. The manufacturer also separately reported that 5 multiple sclerosis patients had sent back manufacturer warranty cards reporting benefit.

Depression: Electro acupuncture Did as Well as Amitriptyline and Better for Anxiety: Electro acupuncture (EA) stimulation influences brain norepinephrine metabolism in experimental animals. Preliminary clinical research found that EA treatment is as effective as amitriptyline for patients with depression. In a 6-week DB PC study of 29 depressed inpatients with three groups: EA + placebo; amitriptyline; and EA + amitriptyline and in a following DB PC multicenter study of 241 inpatients with depression comparing electro acupuncture + placebo to amitriptyline, the results from both studies showed that the therapeutic efficacy of EA was equal to that of amitriptyline for depressive disorders (P > 0.05). Electro-acupuncture had a better therapeutic effect for anxiety somatization and cognitive process disturbance of depressed patients than amitriptyline (P < 0.05). The side effects of EA were much less (P < 0.001). Clinical research on the therapeutic effect of the electro-acupuncture treatment in patients with depression. Luo H, et al. Beijing Medical University, PR China. Psychiatry Clin Neurosci 1998 Dec;52 Suppl:S338-40.

Fibromyalgia: Cranial Electrotherapy Stimulation Reported to Help: in a double-blind crossover study examining the effect of cranial electrotherapy stimulation (CES) on the pain associated with fibromyalgia. Initially, 39 patients were randomly allocated to CES and 35 patients were allocated to a sham group. Measurements taken at baseline and after three weeks included pain intensity, McGill Pain Score, tenderpoint score, profile of mood states, and Oswestry Score. Three weeks after crossover, measurements were repeated. Significant CES effects were identified, revealing an improvement in pain intensity, McGill Score, tenderpoint score, and profile of mood states (p<0.05).

Headache: Cranial Electro stimulation Reportedly Helped Tension Headaches: In a DB sham controlled study a single 20 minute treatment of 100 patients with tension headaches with scores just before and after treatments, those using the Pain Suppressor Unit, a cranial electrotherapy stimulator using extremely low level, high frequency current applied trans cranially, reported an average reduction in pain intensity of approximately 35%. Placebo patients reported a reduction of approximately 18% (p = 0.01). Both physicians and patients rated the stimulator as more effective than placebo (p = 0.004).

The ideal gift for Aggressive Partners

Aggression: Cranial Electrotherapy Stimulation Might Help: Nine aggressive, retarded patients refractory to conventional care at a maximum security hospital were given a 3-month course of cranial electrotherapy stimulation, usually 45-60 minutes twice a day. Aggressive episodes declined 59% from baseline; seclusions were down 72%; restraints were down 58%; and use of prescribed-as-needed sedative medications decreased 53%. No patients discontinued cranial electrotherapy stimulation (CES) because of side effects. Cranial electrotherapy stimulation reduces aggression in a violent retarded population: a preliminary report. Childs A. North Texas State Hospital, Vernon, TX. allen.childs@dshs.state.tx.us. J Neuropsychiatry Clin NeuroSci 2005 Fall;17(4):548-51.>>>More

Kennerly (2006) found that persons treated with CES for 20 minutes exhibited significant changes in the EEG, including increased alpha (8-12Hz) relative power and decreased relative power in the delta (0–3.5Hz) and beta (12.5-30Hz) frequencies. Increased alpha typically correlates with improved relaxation and possibly increased mental alertness or clarity (Thompson & Thompson, 2003), while decreased delta suggests reduced drowsiness. Beta reductions were exhibited mostly between 20-30Hz and this frequency band correlates with reductions in anxiety, ruminative thought, and obsessive/compulsive-like behaviors (Demos, 2005).

Cigarette cravings This study evaluated the efficacy of cranial electrotherapy stimulation (CES) to control cigarette cravings. Cigarette smokers who craved a cigarette were given a single 20-minute treatment of CES consisting of 0.500-500 microampere's of current, 0.5 Hz frequency, using ear clip electrodes in a medical practice. In the US, the Food and Drug Administration authorizes CES devices that have passed its rigorous standards to be marketed for anxiety, insomnia, and depression by prescription from a licensed practitioner. They are available throughout the rest of the world over the counter.

 

Of 1,000 cigarette smokers treated, 972 (97.2%) lost their craving for cigarettes within 1 to 5 minutes into a 20-minute session of CES. Cravings typically returned in 2 to 8 hours (range 30 minutes to 16 hours). Additional benefits of relaxation and pain relief were reported by most subjects. Some of the smokers who also craved other addictive drugs reported a reduced desire for other substances. Some smokers used CES on a scheduled basis to successfully quit smoking.

Multiple Sclerosis Cranial Electrical Stimulation - this is another way to stimulate the brain using low level electrical stimulation that has helped me with reducing the weakness on one side of the body that I have had a problem with a few times in the past because of the effects of Multiple Sclerosis on my body.>>> more

Tinnitus In one study of electrical stimulation, 3 out of 5 patients experienced some relief when frequencies of 40 Hz or less were applied.
