So I was reading this webpage, and Dave Auspry mentions was having good success in sleep improvement with Cranial Electrical Stimulation, or CES.  He specifically mentions this device:  Fisher Wallace Stimulator.  Does anybody have any experience or knowledge regarding this technology?
 

 

The Fisher Wallace Stimulator® is cleared by the FDA for the treatment of depression and anxiety. During each 20-minute treatment session (once or twice a day), the device stimulates the brain to produce serotonin and other neurochemicals required for healthy mood, without causing the side effects of medication. Patients may use the device with or without medication, but should not reduce their current medication without first speaking to their doctor.

 

 

The Fisher Wallace Stimulator® is cleared by the FDA for the treatment of insomnia. When used for 20-minutes before going to bed, the device stimulates the brain to produce serotonin and other neurochemicals required to fall asleep quickly and sleep through the night, without causing the side effects of medication. Many patients use the device in combination with a sleep or fitness tracker to monitor improved sleep quality.

It sounds pretty good, aside from its $600-700 price tag.  What are your thoughts?

Here is the FAQ:  http://www.fisherwal...asked-questions

It has a 30-day money back guarantee, and I'm desperate enough (for sleep) to consider giving it a trial run.

I've read just bad reviews about it, and those CES and tDCS devices are more stimulatory rather than sleep inducing or so I heard. If you are going that way I suggest you to do a more in deep research. There are cheaper versions of those devices.

Have you tryed melatonin for your sleep issues?

I've also been eyeing ces machines. here's one, albeit dubious looking, for under 100 $ http://de.aliexpress...2579816610.html

Lol, that does look a bit dubious.  I wonder what frequency it operates at?  Apparently the Fisher Wallace device operates at a "patented" frequency of 15Hz, 500Hz, and 15,000Hz simultaneously.  Another device I came across, CES Ultra, operates at 100Hz, which they claim is the frequency that the vast majority of all independent CES research has been done with.  Anyway, I think I'll pull the trigger on one of these devices in the near future and test it out, then report back here.

a lot of us use the mindalive oasis pro.

 

here is their website with the link to their infomercials: http://mindalive.com...technology/ces/

 

I use the 100hz mode when waking up (should reset the DMN).

 

there are preconfigured settings for sleep, .... They do it based on the brainwave so you should know a bit about that.

 

Good luck with that journey ... I still use it quite regularly (although less as my meditation practice has really paid off in that sense)
