A new review paper on the treatment of insomnia with cranial electrotherapy stimulation (CES) was published in the October 2007 issue of Practical Pain Management. The paper includes a meta-analysis of 20+ studies with CES. Mental health professionals may find this article particularly useful, as it describes effective ways to integrate CES with CBT.

A new review paper on the use of cranial electrotherapy stimulation (CES) in the treatment of addictions was published in the current issue of Practical Pain Management. Historically the primary use of CES was in the treatment of symptoms of the drug abstinence syndrome. The article includes a meta-analysis of the data from a number of studies and as such is a great resource in this regard.

Many patients want to know how to file insurance claims for Alpha-Stim devices for all of their FDA-registered indications, including anxiety, depression, insomnia and pain. We strongly encourage all patients to file claims for their Alpha-Stim units.

Although we currently do not file insurance claims for individual patients, our staff will be happy to assist our clients in the process. We can provide clients with sample cover letters to use when filing a claim and we can talk with adjusters or medical directors at insurance companies to provide additional guidance and education.

Alpha-Stim insurance filing information is available at:
