An important message from Durrell APRN at South Florida Integrative Health Center:

 

I really wanted to share with you this exciting new technology that stimulates the parasympathetic nervous system and the vagus nerve. There is so much research on why it is important to increase the parasympathetic nervous system for calmness, a feeling of peace and relaxation. Now you can with CES.

What is CES?

CES, or cranial electrotherapy stimulation, is a therapeutic procedure using minute battery-powered current for the treatment of anxiety, depression, and insomnia. Stimulation is generally applied through electrodes, small conductive gel pads, placed between the ears and the jaw. Physicians, however, may vary the site of treatment based on their own protocol or employ conductive rubber ear-clips in lieu of electrodes. The sensation is quite mild. The most a patient will experience during a session is a gentle tingling sensation.

Treatment Regimen

CES is prescribed and monitored by a health-care professional and is typically administered once or twice a day for 30-45 minutes over a period of one month, after which the frequency may be reduced to twice or three times weekly. Positive results may be experienced almost immediately; though some patients might require as long as a month. For lasting benefits, treatment should be continued at irregular intervals, on an as-needed basis.

History

CES was developed in the former Soviet Union during the 1950s, its primary focus being the treatment of sleep disorders, hence its initial designation as “electro-sleep.” Treatment of insomnia was soon overshadowed, however, by psychiatric application for depression and anxiety. East European nations soon picked up on CES as a treatment modality, and its use spread worldwide. By the late 1960s, animal studies of CES had begun in the United States at the University of Tennessee and what is now the University of Wisconsin Medical School. These were soon followed by human clinical trials at the University of Texas Medical School in San Antonio and the University of Wisconsin Medical School. More studies followed. The most extensive work on CES is presently being conducted at the Pavlov Institute in St. Petersburg, Russia. The efficacy and safety of CES therapy can be attested to by approximately 1,000 articles, many of which are listed in four reviews put out by the Foreign Service Bulletin of the United States Library of Congress. There is additionally a wealth of physiological and bio-engineering data on electro-sleep and electro-anesthesia, including 18 experimental animal studies. Human research studies on CES currently number more than 100. Its efficacy has been clinically confirmed through 28 established psychometric tests, computerized EEGs and topographical brain-mapping. Metaanalyses yielding positive results from the use of CES have been conducted at the University of Tulsa and at the Harvard University School of Public Health.

CES has been an international treatment modality for more than 50 years. Thousands of people worldwide continue to receive its benefits. Current estimates are that there are between 50-100,000 units in use globally.
