Updated: Feb 20

Cranial Electrotherapy Stimulation (CES) is a groundbreaking approach in neuropsychiatry that leverages mild electrical currents to modulate brain activity. NeuroCes™ embodies this technology, offering a modern solution for mental health care. CES has been validated through decades of research, showing its ability to influence brainwave patterns and neurotransmitter levels. Unlike traditional therapies that often come with side effects, NeuroCes™ provides a safer, more accessible option for patients seeking relief from chronic mental health conditions. Its noninvasive nature allows for self-administered treatments at home, empowering users to take charge of their mental well-being. With proven efficacy in reducing symptoms of anxiety, depression, and insomnia, NeuroCes™ represents a significant advancement in mental health treatment, making innovative care available to a broader population.

 

Mental health challenges like anxiety, depression, and insomnia affect millions worldwide. NEUROSANTE proudly offers NeuroCes™, a CE-certified Cranial Electrotherapy Stimulator providing noninvasive, evidence-based relief.

 

What is Cranial Electrotherapy Stimulation (CES)?

 

Cranial Electrotherapy Stimulation (CES) is a noninvasive treatment that uses medical-grade devices to deliver mild electrical currents (<4 mA) to the brain through electrodes placed on the earlobes. CES has been extensively studied and shown to influence subcortical brain structures responsible for emotion regulation, including the thalamus, hypothalamus, and limbic system. It promotes relaxation by increasing alpha wave activity (associated with calmness) and decreasing delta waves (linked to fatigue) and beta waves (connected to anxiety and ruminative thoughts). Studies have also demonstrated that CES modulates neurochemical levels, enhancing serotonin, melatonin, and endorphin production while reducing cortisol, the stress hormone. With over 40 years of research supporting its efficacy, CES has emerged as a reliable and accessible solution for managing anxiety, depression, and insomnia, offering an evidence-based alternative to pharmacological treatments. CES uses low-level electrical currents (<4 mA), while NeuroCes™ uses a maximum current of 0.5 mA delivered through electrodes placed on the earlobes. Research from the University of Texas shows CES currents reaching the thalamus, influencing neurotransmitter release and emotional regulation.

 

How NeuroCes™ Works

 

NeuroCes™ operates by delivering precise, low-level electrical currents through electrodes, stimulating key brain regions involved in mood regulation and stress response. Research indicates that CES currents reach the thalamus and hypothalamus, promoting neurotransmitter release. Functional MRI studies show that CES induces cortical deactivation in midline frontal and parietal regions, reducing hyperactivity often seen in anxiety disorders. Additionally, CES increases alpha waves associated with relaxation and decreases beta waves linked to anxiety and obsessive thoughts. NeuroCes™ enhances neurochemical balance, with significant rises in beta endorphins, serotonin, and melatonin, leading to pain relief, mood elevation, and better sleep. This section highlights detailed mechanisms from research studies, including EEG studies and neurohormonal analyses published in peer-reviewed journals, demonstrating how NeuroCes™ effectively supports mental health treatment.

CES affects subcortical structures like the thalamus, hypothalamus, and limbic system, regulating emotions, stress, and sleep. NeuroCes™ increases alpha waves (relaxation), decreases delta waves (fatigue), and reduces beta waves (ruminative thoughts). Neurochemical changes include:

 

  • Increase in beta endorphins known for pain relief and well-being

  • Increase in ACTH supporting stress regulation and homeostasis

  • Increase in serotonin enhancing mood and emotional stability

  • Increase in melatonin promoting better sleep and relaxation

  • Decrease in cortisol helping to reduce stress and anxiety

 

Clinical Evidence Supporting CES

 

CES has been validated through more than 40 years of rigorous scientific research. Multiple randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled trials have demonstrated its efficacy in reducing anxiety, depression, and insomnia. For example, a series of studies with over 200 subjects showed significant improvements in anxiety scores compared to control groups. Neurochemical analyses revealed that CES increases serotonin, melatonin, and endorphins while lowering cortisol, key factors in mood regulation. Research from the Biomedical Engineering Program at the University of Texas and functional MRI studies have shown CES's impact on cortical and subcortical brain regions. CES has also been proven effective in psychiatric hospitals, reducing aggressive behaviors, medication use, and improving overall patient outcomes. Its use in PTSD treatment, adjunctive psychotherapy, and home self-care further underscores its clinical value. The body of evidence supporting CES includes peer-reviewed publications, neurophysiologic studies, and real-world clinical applications, establishing NeuroCes™ as a leading solution for mental health treatment. With 40+ years of research, CES has proven its effectiveness in multiple randomized controlled trials. Studies have shown significant reductions in anxiety, depression, and insomnia symptoms, with effect sizes ranging from moderate to high. CES has also demonstrated success in reducing aggressive behaviors in neuropsychiatric patients, aiding PTSD treatment, and enhancing psychotherapy outcomes.
