Will the Elexoma Medic fry my brain in any way?

The Elexoma Medic was made to the highest Swiss safety standards.  The output is in the region of the body’s own electrical current.  Most people are not even able to feel the current during treatment.  The device is governed in such a way that even the maximum output is still well within the safe range.

When should I treat myself?

For most people, it is easiest to treat themselves in the morning, maybe during breakfast or while on the way to work.  A few people report feeling tired after a treatment session and they are advised to treat themselves before bedtime.  Overall, it does not matter WHEN you treat yourself, as long as it fits in with your lifestyle.  The handy belt pouch makes it possible to carry the Elexoma with you while you are walking.  Note: You can continue working on your computer while treating yourself – there is no interaction with the Elexoma.

How long should I treat myself?

In general, you can accept the pre-set treatment times for each programme.  One treatment a day is more than enough in most cases.  To give you an idea of just how effective a treatment session is: some therapists using the Elexoma only give ONE half-hour treatment session a WEEK and they still report dramatic results.  If you insist on using the Elexoma for longer than the pre-set time, then it is better to give yourself multiple treatments during the day, rather than one single, long treatment.  The reason for this is that a cell can only be stimulated so much and then no more. Anything beyond that is wasted effort.  Rather boost the cells periodically and then give them time to use that boost effectively instead of boosting them continually. An exception to the above:  If you are using the Elexoma to help you with studying, it is recommended to use CES at a low intensity (say, 100 uAmp) for a fairly long period (an hour or more) while you are studying.  This will keep you focused and help you lay down fresh memories that are easy to recall later.

What intensity should I use?

Most published CES research studies were conducted at either 100 uAmp or 200 uAmp.  The reason for this is that such a level is so low that the human skin cannot feel it.  In other words, some study participants can be actively treated and others can be given sham ‘fake treatment – neither study participant would know which was which.  This is done to eliminate the possibility of “positive thinking” influencing the research results.  To get to the point:  200 uAmp for CES is quite enough to get effects.  However, if you prefer to feel some tingling sensation at the contact points, you can increase the level beyond 200 uAmp.  For MET, the optimal intensity is determined by increasing the intensity until you just-just can feel a tingling sensation.  You can stop at this level.
