AlphaStim microcurrent technology is a breakthrough treatment that significantly improves the quality of life of those who use it. The Alpha-Stim 100 produces residual and cumulative effects in the treatment of acute, chronic, and post-operative pain that are far superior to TENS devices. Alpha-Stim technology is backed by more clinical studies than any other device in its class.This unit also delivers CES (refer to Alpha-Stim SCS in the Patient Devices catagory).
Technical description:
Bipolar asymmetric rectangular waves, 50% duty cycle, 0 net current is 10-600 micro-amps continuously adjustable; the frequency is .5, 1.5, or 100 Hz.
Includes: 2 probes, 4 self-adhesive electrodes, and 2 ear clips. Physician Treatment Guide included. Instruction video available.
Background:
Dr. Robert Baker (The Body Electric & Cross Currents) describes the 4th Nervous System as a purely electrical system with cells and each organ having particular electrical properties. The Alpha-Stim covers most cellular frequencies every 10 seconds and is based on this concept of cellular communication through electrical frequencies.
When there is soft tissue injury, EEG readings show that healing is associated with an increase of the low end (2-5 Hz) frequency electromagnetic waves. However, the anxiety state is associated with 16-32 Hz on the EEG readings. This independent research shows that by using CES (cranial electrical stimulation) after the pain treatment, you will maximize the duration of pain relief.
