Alpha Stim is a medical device that delivers microcurrent electrical therapy (MET) to your brain, specifically targeting your mood and sleep centers to promote relaxation and relief from symptoms. The device, which is small and easy to use, clips onto your earlobes and transmits gentle electrical impulses that help to modulate brain activity.
Alpha Stim treatment sessions at St. Mary’s Wellness Center are simple and painless. During a session, a trained clinician attaches the device to your earlobes, and you’ll experience a subtle and comfortable stimulation for 20 to 60 minutes, depending on your specific treatment plan. Sessions are typically administered several times a week, and then gradually reduced as symptoms improve.
Most major health insurance providers with out-of-network benefits will help cover the cost of our St. Marys treatment program. Call us or email us to find out your coverage options when seeking mental health treatment.
