The Neuroscope or Cranial Electrotherapy Stimulation uses microcurrent which utilizes the bulk capacitance of the body and a modulating bioactive frequency at low current levels to reestablish optimal neurotransmitter levels and functioning in the brain. The Neuroscope differs from traditional transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) which is low-frequency (200 Hz or less), high-current (hundreds of mA) modality. Low-level electrical current interacts with cell membranes in a manner that produces modifications in information transduction associated with classical second messenger pathways, calcium channels and cyclic AMP. It has been observed that the activity/levels of MAO-B in blood platelets, CSF and plasma serotonin beta endorphin GABA concentration in blood, DHEA, 5-hydroxy-indol-acetic acid and enkephalins were all increased in experimental groups after 20 CES procedures. Cortisol and trvptophane levels decreased. Electrical engineering studies found that a small fraction of the Neuroscope (CES) current actually reaches the thalamic area of the brain facilitating the release of neurotransmitters as noted above. A decrease in the latency of alpha-rhythm appearance at sleep onset has also been recorded with the use of the Neuroscope (CES) evidencing reduced rigidity in the CNS stimulation process and enhanced activity of the alpha-rhythm generating systems. The Neuroscope also represents a significant affirmation that you have the power within to change your mental state and that you are willing to take active steps to create the time and the space to do so.
