My experience with the Alpha stim AID device
What is it: The Alpha-Stim AID is a small device that uses Cranial Electrotherapy Stimulation (CES) therapy to reduce anxiety symptoms. It sends little electrical signals through the earlobe.
My experience: You need to use ear clips and lay down for about half an hour. At first, I felt the electric shocks given by the ear clips but after about 4 sessions I did no longer feel them. The experience was neither pleasant nor unpleasant.
Costs: EUR 800 for the machine. I resold the machine for EUR 325. In total it costs me about EUR 475.
Did it work: No, although after the first session I did feel very positive. However, this happened only after the first session.
Would I recommend it: Maybe, it did not work for me but I personally do believe in the science behind this therapy.
