Commonly Asked Questions about Alpha-Stim

We’ve gotten a few questions over the years about how Alpha-Stim works for treating anxiety, insomnia, and pain. See below for some of our most common questions and answers.

Does Alpha-Stim actually work?

Alpha-Stim has been shown to be effective in the treatment of anxiety, insomnia, depression, and pain, supported by decades of clinical research, including peer-reviewed studies and clinical trials. On average, Alpha-Stim helps more than 90% of patients.* Some individuals notice benefits quickly, while for others it may take several weeks of consistent use.

While the majority of users experience positive results, Alpha-Stim may not be effective for everyone. For this reason, we offer a 30-day return policy to ensure peace of mind as you explore whether Alpha-Stim is right for you.

*Real-world data was obtained through a patient survey evaluating the outcomes associated with the use of Alpha-Stim in adherence to prescribed protocols. This data complements clinical testing and provides additional insights into the use of the device.

What are the Alpha-Stim benefits?

Alpha-Stim offers several physical and mental health benefits. These include: reduced anxiety levels, improved sleep quality, longer sleep duration, decreased pain levels, and decreased depression*. Patients over the last few years have also said they feel calmer and relaxed, more focused, and more well-rested after using Alpha-Stim. View some patient testimonials here.

What are the dangers of Alpha-Stim?

One of the things we love about Alpha-Stim is that, unlike many prescription medications for anxiety, insomnia, depression*, and pain, Alpha-Stim doesn’t pose the risk of addiction or the severe side effects medications can cause.

People with implanted pacemakers or implanted or wearable defibrillators, and who are pregnant, should not use Alpha-Stim. With Alpha-Stim, adverse effects are usually rare (occurring less than 1% of the time), and are mild, and self-limiting.

The potential effects of using Alpha-Stim for some people include feeling dizzy, headaches, or potential skin irritations. See more about indications and risks here.

What is Cranial Electrotherapy Stimulation?

Great question! Cranial Electrotherapy Stimulation, or CES, is a non-invasive treatment that uses low-intensity electrical currents to stimulate the brain. CES aims to normalize brainwave activity and potentially alleviate symptoms associated with anxiety, depression*, insomnia, and pain.

Alpha-Stim CES specifically is a form of non-invasive brain stimulation that applies a patented, low-amplitude waveform to the brain via earclip electrodes. Why do we use CES? Psychiatric disorders, such as anxiety and insomnia, are associated with alterations in electrical activity in large-scale brain networks.

And research suggests Alpha-Stim CES modulates large-scale brain network activity patterns in two synergistic ways, which you can learn more about here.

What Patients & Providers Say
About Alpha-Stim

“Not only have I experienced relief from anxiety and insomnia; additionally, Alpha-Stim treatments have reduced or eliminated accompanying physical pain.”

CH (MAJ) David J. Fair PhD,
Former President, American Association of Police Officers; Former President, Homeland Crisis InstituteTexas

“The Alpha-Stim has so much good science behind it, with many highly controlled clinical studies—this really proves its unique effectiveness for so many types of patients. And you can’t ignore the incredible safety record with no serious side effects. That’s why I recommend it to many of my patients.”

Anita D. Spitz, MD, Chief Family Medicine Department Parrish Medical CenterTitusville, Florida

“So far, I have overall had good results from the Alpha-Stim AID. In fact, one day while doing household tasks I walked in front of a mirror and noticed that I was smiling! That's new behavior and truly a result of this device. I am also experiencing a feeling of well-being and deep sleep that I haven't experienced since college days.”

Alpha-Stim User

“I am so pleased to advise you that I was able to use the Alpha-Stim device during my surgery. The staff at the surgery center were interested and of course I had brochures to provide to them. Alpha-Stim allowed me to minimize the need for pain Rx, and I believe I was off meds completely by the end of day 3. After two weeks, the surgeon was pleased with the surgical site, removed the stitches, and I was back in my office!”

Dr. Corinne Cherek, health care practitioner Las Vegas, NV

“I have tried everything, and I mean everything, in the past to get relief from both pain and anxiety, but especially anxiety. Alpha-Stim just worked, and it didn’t take that long for it to work. Everybody’s different, but I do it 20 to 40 minutes a day, and I do it every day. In the morning, I get up and have my coffee, and do my Alpha-Stim.”

Dan F., US Veteran

“I was skeptical. I’ve tried everything - nothing else worked, but it’s working on my anxiety like nothing else. I wish I had discovered it years ago. It’s cheaper than 5 sessions with a therapist.”

Jarus J.Facebook

“I have been using Alpha-Stim. It really made a difference for my anxiety. It works, and I love that it is drug-free.”

Rose KellyFacebook

“I’ve personally experienced and have seen Veterans' lives improve with less pain, overall feeling better mentally, sleeping better, and less anxious using the Alpha-Stim device!”

Sara ParozFacebook

“I have an Alpha-Stim that I got from the VA. It actually does help with anxiety.”

Freddie SawyerFacebook

“This works. Makes a difference. Makes a noticeable change in my anxiety. The VA will pay for these fellow Veterans. Talk to your prescriber. They also make one that assists with pain management, too.”

Emily Stillman, US VeteranFacebook

“I just rented one from my [doctor] today. Tried it in office, and it’s the most comforting feeling.”

Holly HarringtonFacebook

Drug-Free Anxiety and Insomnia Option for First Responders, Veterans, and Military

When it comes to mental health care, medication is often not an option for first responders, and for Veterans and military it’s not a first choice. Alpha-Stim provides a drug-free option for anxiety and insomnia treatment. This means first responders can do their job unimpaired while caring for themselves, and Veterans and active duty service members can get the care they need without the medications and side effects they dislike.

We’re also proud to offer special discounts to these individuals.
