Cranial Electrotherapy Stimulation

What is Cranial Electrotherapy Stimulation?

Your moods and emotions, including anxiety, are powerfully influenced by electrochemical signals in your brain. When these signals aren’t functioning properly, the hormones and neurotransmitters that regulate your emotions can become unbalanced. By modulating the brain’s electrochemical signals, you can safely and effectively improve mood conditions such as anxiety and depression, and experience better sleep.

Cranial electrotherapy stimulation (CES) is a system of low-level electrical currents applied to a patient’s earlobe. By delivering very low-level micro-current pulses in a wide range of biological frequencies, it electrochemically enhances brain functioning and helps improve patients’ emotions and physiological states of mind by regulating the activity of the subcortical brain structures known to regulate and control emotions.

Many clients notice an immediate reduction in anxiety during their very first CES session;however, this is not usually the case for clients who suffer from multiple issues such as anxiety, insomnia, and depression at the same time. The effect of CES is cumulative, meaning each treatment is potentially more and more effective than the previous. Combining CES with the mental health counseling of a licensed professional counselor increases the effectiveness.

So if you are struggling with anxiety, depression, or insomnia and you have not responded well to medications, then cranial electrotherapy stimulation may be a safe alternative to increase your wellness. For more information on CES or how it can help you, call Integrated Counseling and Wellness.

    open-quote I went to integrated counseling for two years for eating disorder recovery. Every week, I loved meeting with my counselor to celebrate my successes and work through the barriers that come with mental health challenges. My counselor thoroughly explained the reasons behind eating disorder behaviors, showed empathy with hard topics, and helped me overcome Issues I had dealt with for years. I looked forward to each session.  I am in a healthier state of mind and in a better place in life because of the thoughtfulness, kindness, and professionalism that my counselor showed me close-quote

    open-quote I am a 56 year old woman who has struggled with disordered eating for the past 42 years of my life. It wasn’t until I found my counselor with Integrated Counseling, that I started to reverse all the ill effects of dieting, issues around controlling all my food and letting go of my fat phobia. The program that my counselor guided me through was an awesome mix of self compassion, intuitive eating and movement, being present in all aspects of life and stopping judgement towards myself and others. I am convinced that I would not be nearly as far along in my healing process were it not for my counselor. She was gentle yet firm, patient and incredibly understanding. I am left with all the tools I need to proceed through life on my continued recovery journey. close-quote

    open-quote As a young woman who has struggled with body image and a relationship with food for most of my life, receiving counseling for my eating disorder was the only way I could finally see light at the end of my dark tunnel. My anorexia had consumed me to a point where food, exercise, and the way I perceived my body controlled my thoughts and feelings every hour of the day. It wasn't until I sought out counseling and had a desire to recover that I am finally healing. These past three years receiving professional help have truly saved my life. I am now the healthiest I have ever been. Without a shadow of a doubt, I would encourage any person who is struggling with an eating disorder to not be afraid to reach out and trust that you can finally learn to love yourself. close-quote

    open-quote This place changed my life. I haven’t been there in about 4 years now, but I was reflecting over my experience and thought they deserved a good review. I originally went to see Luke back in 2017 to deal with my depression. After visiting with him for a few months we came to the conclusion that I was dealing with undiagnosed ADHD. My life has significantly improved because of Luke and my diagnosis. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. close-quote

    open-quote I've gone to many Counselor places, but this seems to be the one. Excellent Service! By both the therapists and the staff! Very friendly and professional! The atmosphere is great as well! They don't take Medicaid sadly, but they have multiple kinds of professionals and services to fit your need! They also have an excellent website. They are good at communicating to you and each other, so that nothing goes wrong. close-quote
