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.

Getting Started – The Basics
1. Switching on the Elexoma
The large, round silver button in the middle of the Elexoma is the ON-switch (among other things). Press the top half of the button and the Elexoma should make a shrill, piercing noise (assuming the batteries are in and charged). Sorry about the noise – you can shorten the duration of the “beep” by pressing the bottom half of the silver button shortly after the beeping begins. By the way, some devices lose their beep sound after a while (but they continue to function normally in all other respects). If this silence bothers you, you are more than welcome to return the device and we will send you a noisy one again.

2. Switching off the Elexoma
There is no OFF-switch. If the device is inactive for about 30 seconds, it will turn itself off.

3. The Display Screen
The Elexoma display screen can be somewhat confusing, but focus on four things only:
Programme setting
Once the Elexoma is on, the top half of the central silver button cycles through the 8 preset programm–es. Every time you press the top half of the central button, you will see a different number displayed to the left of the countdown timer (“1” in our example above). The preset programmes are discussed in some detail on page 11 of your Users manual. For now, all you need to know is that Programme 1 is used for CES and the other 7 programmes are used for MET. This is over-simplification, but this is a Quick-start guide, after all.
Count-down timer
The countdown timer is preset for the various programmes. To start your treatment, press the bottom half of the central silver button. The countdown timer will start. If you press the bottom half of the central button a second time, while the countdown timer is running, a short double beep will signal the end of treatment and the countdown timer is reset to its default value.
Intensity
Intensity is displayed in the bottom right hand corner of the screen. When treatment is initiated, it begins at 10 uAmp.
Battery level indicator
This is displayed just above the intensity setting, on the right hand side of the screen. It is not very accurate, unfortunately. You have about 15 hours of treatment life in the batteries after a single charge, so it is a good idea to recharge your batteries every three weeks or so (with normal use).

4. Plugging in the leads
At the top left corner of your Elexoma, there are two output channels, marked I and II. You can use either output channel to plug your treatment lead in (the Elexoma automatically detects which channel is “active”). You will find that the treatment lead fits in one way only. If you wish to use MET on two body areas at the same time, you can plug an MET lead in either channel. If you are using both channels at the same time, please note that you have to DOUBLE the current output to get the desired effect. In other words, if you want to treat two areas simultaneously with 600 uAmp, then you have to set the Elexoma to provide 1,200 uAmp. Rest assured: You cannot shock yourself! Note: You CANNOT run a CES and MET session at the SAME time.

5. Starting the programme
Once the electrodes are in place (see below), you can start the programme by pressing the BOTTOM half of the central button. The countdown timer will begin counting. If you want to stop a treatment session midway, for whatever reason, simply press the bottom half of the central button a second time.

6. Increasing the current
Intensity can only be changed once the session is running (countdown timer is counting down). You MUST increase the current to an effective level. This is done by pressing the Arrow Up on the right hand side of the device. Every time you press this button, the intensity will increase by 10 uAmp until you reach 200 uAmp. After that, intensity will increase in steps of 50 uAmp. You can also depress AND hold the Arrow Up key to increase the intensity more rapidly. The Arrow Down key, just below the Arrow Up key on the right, has the opposite effect.

7. 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.

8. Treatment duration
Treatment duration can only be altered once the countdown timer is running. It can be increased or decreased by the Arrow Up and Arrow Down keys on the left hand side of the device.

9. 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.

10. CES electrodes
The CES earclip electrodes have little clamps that you must fix on your earlobes. If you are wearing earrings, it is advisable to first remove them. Before clipping the electrodes onto your ears, wet the little bits of cloth with tap water. Salt water is best, but tap water works just fine. If the cloth is dry, there will be no or poor contact with the skin and no treatment will occur. If the electrodes are only partially wet, the contact surface will be reduced and you could feel a stinging sensation in your earlobes. The white ear felts are for comfort only – you can also treat yourself without them, the efficacy of the treatment will not be affected.

11. MET electrodes
The self-adhesive electrodes that are used for MET need to be handled with care to optimise their lifespan. They do NOT have to be made wet before use. Always replace them on the plastic counterfoil when you are not using them. Never pick them up by the “pigtail”, since the “tail” may pull out from the pad. Just use your finger to lift a corner and then peel the electrode off. When putting the electrodes on your body, make sure two electrodes do not touch each other – if they do, it will cause a short-circuit and no treatment will occur. More information on the care of your pre-gelled electrodes follows later.

12. Alarms and indicators
If the treatment circuit is broken (treatment lead not plugged in properly, electrodes not fixed properly, or not wet), an alarm will flash on the middle right of the display screen. If the intensity reaches 200 uAmp or more, the alarm will also be audible (very audible, in fact). If this happens, reposition the electrodes and make sure the treatment leads are properly plugged in.

13. What about the MP3 player and the SD card?
If you read through the User’s manual, you will see mention made of a built-in MP3 player, as well as SD-card functionality. Neither of these functions were activated by the manufacturer, which is why we never mention either of these in our advertising. The idea behind the SD card was that people could upload music and/or additional treatment programmes to the SD-card and then plug the card into the Elexoma. The firmware for this was never completed, however. Don’t worry about it. Your Elexoma has enough oomph in the pre-set 8 programmes to treat almost anything you can present it with.

14. 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.

15. During a treatment session
It is advised that you have your first CES treatment session while you are relaxed and sitting in an armchair. That way, you can assess the effects of CES on yourself much better. At higher intensities, some people report flashes of light, as if someone was taking flash photographs behind their back. This phenomenon is not dangerous and is simply the effect of electrons depolarising the retina, triggering it to report a false image. Treating yourself to a CES session while driving is done at your own risk. We do not recommend it.

16. Confusing things in the instruction manual
Are you still with me? Good. You are then probably one of those folks who actually read the User’s manual from cover to cover and inevitably phone me to ask two questions: “On pages 15 & 20 of the manual, it states that the red (positive) electrode must be placed on the right ear and the black (negative) electrode on the left ear. Is this correct?” Well, it doesn’t matter, since programme 1 is biphasic / alternating between positive and negative. So just ignore that please. Second question: “The manual (page 16) says I must replace the felt pads after EVERY treatment. Do I really have to?” No, that was intended for therapists, who treat many people with the same device. Only replace the white felt pads if they become contaminated or worn. Their chief purpose is for your comfort, nothing more.
That’s it for now. You should be able to get going now. MET electrode placements are set out on pages 19 to 33 of the User’s manual. Below, we describe various treatments for a range of afflictions.

(Almost) All about CES
CES, or Cranial Electrotherapy Stimulation, refers to the application of microcurrent to the brain specifically. Some situations where CES may be beneficial are:
Depressed mood, loss or grief
Anger or irritability
Stress
Sleeplessness (insomnia), nightmares
Lack of concentration / shortened attention span
Memory deficits
After a stroke or spinal cord injury
Lack of drive and motivation
Fibromyalgia
There are many abbreviations used to refer to the action of applying electricity to the brain. Probably the most infamous one is ECT, or Electro-Convulsive Therapy. This one (wrongly) got really bad press in the best-seller book from the 60s, One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest. With ECT, large doses of current are passed through the brain in a very short span of time. This “resets” the brain, which can improve certain mental conditions. However, it also causes all the muscles in the body to contract. In the early days of ECT, no muscle relaxants (or tranquilisers) were used and the force of the contracting muscles was sometimes so intense that bones snapped. Nowadays, muscle relaxants and tranquilisers help make ECT a safe and rapid alternative to drug therapy, but most people still associate it with its crude early use.

ECT achieves its effects by administering large doses of electricity over a short period of time. Research has shown, however, that giving small doses of electricity over longer periods of time is just as effective, if not more so. When it comes to electrotherapy, “less is more”. Even better, you don’t need to see a psychiatrist to get CES. Plus, you don’t need to see your friendly orthopaedic surgeon afterwards.

CES mostly refers to the application of Alternating Current to the brain (as distinct from Direct Current). In other words, the polarity of the two electrodes keeps on switching between positive and negative (and you thus do not need to take care which electrode is positive or negative). In bio-electronics, the word “biphasic” is used to refer to alternating current. One of the advantages of a biphasic current is that the local tissues don’t get polarised, thus reducing the risk of tissue damage. CES also typically employs low intensity currents, meaning the user hardly feels the flow of electricity.
CES is most commonly administered via the earlobes, although it can also be administered by sticking pre-gelled electrodes just behind the ears or on the shoulders.

The body is an electric organ. In fact, that is where the name “Elexoma” comes from. It is a combination of “Elec” for “electricity” and “soma”, the Greek word for “body”. Every chemical reaction in the body involves changes in electrical values and these are not merely accidental. The brain, nerves, muscles, blood vessels and glands all operate based on electrical balance and current flows. The currents involved are tiny, but essential for life. The “old school thinking” that used overwhelming electrical force to achieve therapeutic aims is dying out as new research increasingly proves that cells respond best to electricity that is in the same league as the normal bodily voltage and intensity.

Another abbreviation you may come across is tDCS. This stands for transcranial Direct Current Stimulation. As the name implies, a Direct (or monophasic) Current is applied to the brain instead of an Alternating Current. In such therapy, the placement of the positive and negative electrodes is can make a difference. Depending on where they are placed, different effects can be elicited. You can use your Elexoma for tDCS, but I won’t go into that detail here.

Now, let us get back to plain and simple CES.
Programme 1 on the Elexoma device is the classical CES programme. With the intensity somewhere between 200 uAmp and 550 uAmp (the maximum) you really don’t need more CES in a 24 hour period than the preset 25 minutes.
CES and Pain

Even if you bought the Elexoma for use on your body (such as for chronic pain), I recommend that you use the CES function, too. Why? Studies have shown a 92% increase in endorphins in the CSF. Endorphins are the body’s own pain-killers and the CSF (cerebro-spinal fluid) is the fluid that cushions the brain and spinal cord. Such an increase thus indicates that the production of endorphins in the brain has nearly doubled. As a result, pain perception virtually halves. Pain is a complex phenomenon and it has a large central (brain) component. Pain is not just caused by an injury, but also by the way the brain interprets pain signals coming from the injury site. If the brain is chock-full of endorphins, it will ignore much of the pain impulses coming from the injury site.
Please note what this means: It does NOT mean that the cause of the pain has been addressed, only that the pain itself has been subdued. In other words, CES treatment for pain is symptomatic, not curative. OK, painkillers do the same – they relieve the sensation of pain without addressing the cause of the pain. The difference is that painkillers have other side effects, some of them delaying wound healing. Other effects could even be fatal (such as stomach ulcers or blood dysfunctions). CES has none of these side effects, so you get the benefits without the damages of painkillers.

CES also increases the levels of serotonin in the CSF. Sorry, another big word, but bear with me as I try to explain. Serotonin is one of your brain’s “feel good” messengers. If you have more serotonin floating in the CSF, it means your brain is in a good mood. One study showed a 61% increase in CSF-serotonin after only a single 20 minute treatment. This effect isn’t always clearly noticeable, but that is because of the way we rationalise our experiences. I’ve lost count of the number of times clients tell me, “I’m not sure if it’s the Elexoma, but I’m feeling really great since I started using it!” The effect is subtle, but undeniable. And the effect lasts for a couple of days after a single treatment – that’s powerful. So, to enhance your mood and to cope with stress, CES is a marvellous tool. It won’t “override” your personality or circumstances, but it will give you that extra little boost that often is all you need to get through a really hectic day.

CES also increases your attention span. One study showed a remarkable 382% increase in attention and concentration span after a single treatment. In other words, you become more vigilant and aware of your surroundings during and after a CES treatment. There are many applications of this phenomenon, for example in sports where the athlete has to concentrate intently (e.g., archery, gymnastics, golf) or during studying. People with shortened attention span can also benefit from CES treatment.

Both CES and tDCS are remarkably beneficial in the prevention and treatment of headaches, including migraines. I won’t confuse you with tDCS settings now – let’s stick with programme 1 on the Elexoma. The next time you experience a headache, run programme 1 and see how the headache disappears in a matter of minutes. If you suffer from regular headaches, treat yourself daily and you will find the regularity, duration AND intensity of the headaches steadily decreasing over one or two months. Persist with daily treatment for a couple of months and your regular headaches could be something of the past.

And now, just before you fall asleep, let me talk about sleeplessness. CES increases daytime vigilance, but it also helps people to sleep deeper and more restfully at night. This is very useful for people who have difficulty falling asleep, or who wake up in the middle of the night and then struggle to fall asleep again. However, restoring sleep in cases where a person has been suffering from sleeplessness for months or years is not easy. If you suffer from long-term sleep problems, you may have to treat yourself for a number of months before you notice any real difference.

The Elexoma also works like magic for jetlag – simply treat yourself to Programme 1 before you depart, halfway through your journey and then after arrival at your destination (just before going to sleep). Within one day, your sleep-wake cycle will be back to normal. Sweet.

MET, or Micro-Electric Therapy, refers to the use of microcurrent to treat the body. Typical situations where you might want to use MET are:
Chronic backache, arthritis or other chronic pains.
Acute pain due to a sprain, muscle tear, bone fracture, wound, etc.
Wound healing, whether an open wound, bruise, sprain, fracture, etc.
Refreshing of the whole body, e.g. after strenuous exercise or before a sports event.

By now, you are probably tired of all the TLAs (Three-Letter Acronyms). Sorry, but here’s one more: MET, short for Microcurrent Electrical Therapy. MET refers to the application of low-level electrical pulses to the body to achieve therapeutic outcomes. Technically, CES is also a form of MET, but the indications and proposed mechanism of action are different in the case of CES. As a result, MET is almost always used to refer to treatment of the body, not the brain.

The “micro” in “microcurrent” refers to current intensities that are mostly less than 1 milliAmp (or 1,000 uAmp, as it is displayed on your Elexoma’s screen). These levels are in line with your body’s own electrical charge.
As with CES, MET can be applied either as Direct (monophasic) Current (DC) or as Alternating (biphasic) Current (AC). Your Elexoma Medic has no less than 7 preset MET programmes (more than any other microcurrent device on the planet). You will find details of each programme on Page 11 of your User’s manual. I won’t rehash page 11 here, but let me group the programmes together in terms of what to use when – that is all you REALLY need to know.

There are essentially two reasons why you would want to use MET: injury and pain. Under these two headings, there are a number of sub-headings:
1. Wound healing
1.1 Skin lesions (Acute / chronic)
1.2 Muscle injuries (Acute / chronic)
1.3 Nerve injuries (Acute / chronic)
2. Pain control
2.1 Acute pain
2.2 Chronic pain

Before I jump in and explain the programmes, just a note about how microcurrent therapy works. You may safely skip this section if you want, but I find it fascinating, so bear with me as I elaborate.

The 1997 Nobel Prize for chemistry was awarded to a Chinese researcher, Dr Ngok Cheng, who in 1982 published a paper showing how microcurrent stimulation increased the level of ATP in cells by 500%. Oops, I did it again! I used a TLA! In this case, I am not going to explain it, however, since ATP refers to the name of a molecule and your eyes will probably glaze over if I start mentioning the names of molecules. ATP is no ordinary molecule (if there is such a thing as an ordinary molecule, that is). ATP is the body’s energy currency. Like money, you can’t do business without it. The body’s cells manufacture ATP and then various cell processes use that ATP for power. Without ATP, no reactions can take place inside the cell and the cell dies. Every day, you and I need some 75 kg of ATP to survive. Yes, that’s right: 75 kg!

“Hey, wait a minute!” I hear you saying, “I hardly weigh 75 kg, so where do I get 75 kg of ATP from?” Aha, I’m glad you asked. ATP is not a use-once-throw-away-twice kind of molecule. It is quite possibly the most recycled item in the universe. Once an ATP molecule has been used to provide energy, it is recycled, re-energised and re-deployed. Every molecule of ATP in your body gets recycled approximately 1,200 times a day. Yes: A DAY. That’s once every minute, give or take.

Now let’s get back to Dr Ngok Cheng and his Nobel prize. Do you understand why the Nobel prize awards committee got so excited about his research? ATP is mostly formed in the presence of carbohydrates and oxygen. If you don’t eat, you die. If you don’t breathe, you die. Why? Because your cells can’t manufacture ATP. Dr Cheng’s research showed a new way of regenerating ATP, one that did not primarily involve oxygen or carbohydrates. A weak current was all it took to increase ATP levels in the cell by 500% or more. And that is what the Elexoma is all about.

What’s the big deal? Well, with all that ATP inside your cells, they are able to do the work they need to do. All the body’s cells are under continuous attack from all sorts of villains. It takes a lot of ATP for the cell to repair itself. Sometimes, cell damage is so extensive that the cell has no energy left to do anything else (think how you feel after a Washing & Ironing Monday…). That is when we experience Loss of Function, for example, when an ankle is sprained, or a muscle is bruised. The pain and swelling is the body’s way of keeping the affected area still while cell repair takes place. Every time you move, the pain tells you to stop.

Now, if you apply MET to the injured area, the MET increases the ATP in the injured cells. They repair themselves much faster (think 500%) and tell the brain, “All is OK, you can switch off the pain report and drain the swelling!” (OK, that’s not quite true, but you get the picture). And this, my dear Watson, is how MET works for pain and healing. Thank you for listening so attentively. The lecture is over.

You will have noticed that you received two sets of treatment leads (cables) and two pairs of pre-gelled electrodes. This is to enable you to treat two areas of the body at once (if need be, to help you save time). Just take note that, if you use both cables at the same time, the actual current being applied to the body is only HALF of what is being displayed on the Elexoma’s screen. In other words, if the display says you are getting 300 uAmp, you are only getting 150 uAmp PER TREATMENT SITE. Most of the time, however, you will probably only need to treat one area at a time, in which case the display is correct as shown.

For Monophasic programmes, remember that the colour coding on the treatment cables becomes important: Red is positive (anode) and black is negative (cathode) (I use “red lips” and “a black mood” to remind me what goes for what…). The electrode placements for treating various body parts is outlined in quite some detail from page 19 to 32 of your manual. By the way, the picture for CES on page 20 is confusing – programme 1, our CES programme, is biphasic, so it does not really matter which colour goes on which ear.

Your pre-gelled electrodes need a lot of loving care. Their expected lifespan is three months, if you use them every day, but with careful use you can use them for much longer. To get the electrode off the counterfoil, do NOT pick it up by the “tail”, but rather peel a corner off with your finger and then lift it up by the corner. If the electrodes lose their stickiness, you can rejuvenate them by rubbing a drop of dishwashing soap into the sticky side, then rinsing the soap off with cold water. Stick the wet electrode back onto the counterfoil and put it all in the fridge overnight. The next morning, the stickiness ought to be back to square one.

Try to keep electrodes patient-specific. In other words, let one person use one set of pre-gelled electrodes only (you can always order extra from us, if needed). This is specially true in cases where open wounds are being treated. However, this is only a recommendation.

For all the programmes outlined below, the optimal intensity is one that you just-just can NOT feel. In other words, increase the intensity until you feel the pulse, then decrease the intensity by a click of the Arrow Down button. Don’t think you HAVE to feel it for the current to work. For pain treatment, higher intensities may be needed – let your pain guide you. You cannot harm yourself with the Elexoma!

1. Wound healing
1.1 Skin lesions (Acute / chronic)
To assist wound healing in recent wounds, you can use either programme 2 or 4. These two programmes are identical in all respects, except in their duration (15 min vs 25 min). Treat for longer time for larger wounds. One treatment per day is all that is needed, but you can treat for longer or more often a day if you wish.

Example: Surgery – if you are going in for elective surgery, treat the area to be cut a few hours BEFORE you go into theatre, and then daily after surgery.
Electrode placement: Any placement that brackets the injured site is good. It does not even have to be close to the wound site, as long as the current flows through the wound site. Positive and negative placement not so important here.

Healing chronic wounds: Use programme 3 and bracket the wound site with the electrodes. Again, the electrodes do not need to be close to the wound site, as long as the current flows through the injured area. Once a day is enough. You should see significant results within four to six weeks. As with acute wounds, the placement of positive and negative electrodes relative to the wound site is NOT critically important.

1.2 Muscle injuries (Acute / chronic)
For acute muscle injuries, use programme 5. Electrode placement depending on the muscle group affected (see the manual for optimal placement options). If programme 5 does not help much within the first day, proceed to programme 8. Programme 8 is identical to programme 5, except that it allows you to use much higher intensities of current (which penetrate deeper into the muscle). For larger muscle groups and larger injuries, programme 8 will be the better option. Programme 8 is also useful when more than one site needs to be treated.
1.3 Nerve injuries (Acute / chronic)
For recent nerve injuries, use either programme 4, 5 or 8 (depending on how deep below the skin the injury is and how much pain is involved – higher programme for greater injury). Electrode placement as for other injuries in 1.1.

For older nerve injuries, use programme 3 or programme 6, depending on how much pain is experienced (programme 6 is the “stronger” programme). Electrode placement as above.

In cases of spinal cord injury or nerve palsy, place the black electrode on a limb below the injury site and the red electrode above the injury site, so that the current will flow along the nerve through the injury site. Programme 6 is recommended, once or twice daily. Nerve regrowth will be accelerated, but can still take 3 to 6 months, depending on a number of factors. The first symptoms of regrowth taking place is often a “pins and needles” feeling in the area supplied by the injured nerve.

2. Pain control
2.1 Acute pain
Treat acute pain with programme 2 or 4, depending on severity. If programme 4 does not help, then programme 8 is your friend.

For menstrual cramps, use programme 2 and place the electrodes on either side of the waist.

2.2 Chronic pain
Treat chronic pain with either programme 3 or 6, depending on severity of pain.

For pain due to joint problems (arthritis, hip replacement, etc), use programme 7. You can order smaller electrodes if you wish, to treat painful finger joints.

Rapid onset of action
Powerful increases in your performance at work and at play
Dramatic relief from pain, poor sleep, anxious thoughts, depressed mood, anger and frustration
Very low running cost
Simple and easy to use
Fully portable treatment in a high quality, palm-sized, durable device
No side effects (or nearly none)

Testimonials

MM Port Elizabeth

I did not want to jump the gun and ensure that I understand the benefit (if any) that I was getting. I am humbled with the extent you have gone to ensure that I get the best out of the device. Such customer service is rare in these times. Thank you.

The benefit I have obtained from the CES is nothing short of astounding. I have a high pressure job which has resulted in constant anxiety and stress which resulted in depression. That has dissipated to a large extent since I started using the device. I will watch the longer term effect with excitement.

Mrs HB Johannesburg

Thank you very much. I received my parcel today and can now continue treating my Tennis Elbow. Well to be honest, the great advice Dr Frank Muller sent on Tennis elbow treatment worked absolute wonders. Problem is now I have developed it in the other elbow. But instead of suffering for six months or more like I did the first time before getting the Elexoma machine, I know my elbow will start feeling slightly better in the morning, and will be just a memory by Christmas.

Every home should have one of these – in fact they should come standard with any decent first aid kit. Thank you all.

Mrs SvV Durban

I have never, in my life (and I am quite advanced in age already) experienced the kind of service excellence that I have with Integrow.

KA Kimberley

I am sleeping deeper now which I ascribe to the CES which I use daily. I am really pleased with my Elexoma.

JE Johannesburg

Yes, it's one machine that changed my life dramatically. I was first diagnosed with severe migraines back in 2001, Grade 10. After that I could never enjoy a rich meal or even look into bright colours of items etc. In 2003 after a big rugby match, I had a migraine attack so bad that I was hospitalised for almost a month. They did a cat scan and MRI on me to see if the cause wasn't a tumour of some sort, luckily not. I went from doctor to doctor, changed my eating plan, started exercising, but still nothing helped, so I thought that this was one thing I will keep for life. Eventually, after having 3 migraines in a row in one week (3 days after each other) I decided that no matter what the cost - I need helped, so went through numerous websites, clinics etc, and found nothing. Then, one day at home (booked off due to the migraines) I tried one last more time. I found a link to your website. First I thought, yeah right, another money making scam, but I went on and decided to hire it from you. To my surprise, up till today - NOT A SINGLE MIGRAINE, AND BY THE WAY - I ALSO SLEEP BETTTER, I have not been using any sleeping tablets. I would recommend the Elexoma to anyone to try out.... well, it definitely works for me (and my aunt and grandmother) in various ways...

Anonymous Durban

I recently leased the Elexoma Medic. All I can say is WOW!!!! I have had M.E. for 10 years, and it is truly helping me with my most severe symptoms which are a pounding/palpitating heart caused by a sensitized amygdala caught in constant fight or flight. I was severely traumatized as a child for a number of years (7 years of severe sexual abuse) which caused the M.E. and P.T.S.D. Although I have worked through all that tremendous emotional pain slowly but surely, nothing has been able to alleviate the pounding of my heart or my hyper alert brain (which is completely out of my control and very frustrating as I'm not a naturally highly strung person), but the Elexoma is helping tremendously and I could cry tears of joy as I am starting to feel like the calm person I've always known I am - my true self. As a result, my sleep is improving (insomnia is a struggle every night - sometimes very severely). Although I can still feel my heart all the time, to not have it surging with adrenaline constantly is such a precious gift. As a result, I have more energy and am coping a lot better on my bad energy days. I believe it will improve more and more as I continue to use this amazing, miracle device! I want my story to help other abuse survivors and give them hope. For some reason my body rejects medication(which is very scary) so I'm not on any meds, and that's also another reason why the Elexoma is such a genius machine, as trauma can be treated in a non-invasive way with brilliant, tangible results. I would recommend every trauma survivor to use it. It really works!! (After one week of use.)

AN Wisconsin, USA

Dear Frank

Thank you so much , again, for the Elexoma. I know it works!!! I am not taking any of the meds anymore. I am forever grateful!!!

HU Johannesburg

Loving it - it has certainly helped me with the fibromyalgia - mostly using the earlobe electrodes.

HC Zambia

Wou net se dat ek pynvry is!!!! Wel, tenminste die hele nag en vandag nog GEEN pyn hoegenaamd.... weet nie hoe en wat werk die Elexoma nie maar nietemin, ek kla nie... vir die eerste keer in n baaaaiiiee lank tyd het ek deurgeslaap en vandag kon ek wasgoed was en werk wat ek gewoonlik nie kon doen nie agv erge pyn... Kan steeds nie skouer oplig nie (frozen shoulder) maar ek kla nie.. hopelik sal dit nog met fisio en meds regkry later van tyd maar vandag is ek net bly dat ek nie sit en huil nie want dis hoe dit gegaan het vir die afgelope paar maande (dag en nag) - erge pyn gehad.

GG Bloemfontein

This Elexoma is fantastic.....use it almost every morning as I'm going through a very stressful time & I'm now sure it helps anxiety & depression tremendously. We have recently returned from Sydney & used CES on my husband for his phobia of being cooped up on plane for so long. Also relieved his headaches,he didn't take pain pills for weeks. I can no longer imagine life without this little miracle!!! Took it to Sydney & definitely shortened jetlag. Thank you, have recommended to many people but they seem scared to try it, how silly!

LM Polokwane

I would like to inform you of my brief experience since using the Elexoma. I literally am sleeping like a baby now, and I study better. I was an A student when I was still in high school, but after I had an accident it was never the same, I had difficulty retaining memory and this got me so frustrated.

TC Durbanville

I know that Elexoma definitely helps a lot. This is really sure. My anxiety was gone very soon after I started using it. And I didn't have any anxiety during my come off from tablets. I think you should put my case in your website. [This Oriental lady has a decades-long history of regular hospital admissions for anxiety and depression. She is now completely free from all medication.]

PM Bloemfontein

Ek en my Elexoma doen baie goed! My pynvlakke het so toegeneem dat ek regtig begin oorweeg het om selfmoord te pleeg. Toe kry ek iemand om my te help met die plasing van die electrodes en 1 tot 2 uur se behandeling vir vyf dae later is ek 'n ander mens! Die pyn is nog nie weg nie maar dis soveel beter. Ek kan dit nie beskryf nie. Baie dankie aan Elexoma, dit gaan soveel beter met my.

Dr SD Kwazulu-Natal

Thanks so much for all the interesting information. I really appreciate it. I am truly amazed at the benefits of the Elexoma With today's stressful lifestyle it appears that the Elexoma is truly beneficial. So many people are placed on anti-anxiety meds and anti-depressants. I believe those meds are excellent and many people do benefit but they are being over-prescribed. It is great that there is an alternative for many who do not wish to be on lifelong potentially addictive meds. Thanks so much for all the info.

NJ King William's Town

I'm a 37 year old female who has been battling with depression for approximately 4 years and have not been on treatment for 2 years, I just got tired of feeling like a "zombie" and as you can guess my condition got from bad to worse and started affecting my professional and personal life. When I read about this machine on the web I got excited as it sounded like a good product to have and decided to place my order. I must commend you for such a quick response as I received the machine the day after I've place my order. I immediately read my manual and by the end of Friday evening I started with CES and that evening already slept like a little baby and I don't feel as anxious as I normally do and my head feels "clearer". I want to thank you so much for such a great machine, I know now for sure that it will improve my life.

TG Cape Town

I am a very busy mom of three children aged 9 months,2 years and 8 years old. [M]y eldest son of eight suffers from autism. I hardly have time for myself and after discovering the benefits of the Elexoma machine, I spent a few minutes a day unwinding with my machine. My life has improved dramatically with the use of the Elexoma medic machine. I now live a healthy and fulfilling life without feeling tense and being crippled by cluster headaches. I am no longer on medication for my chronic headaches and my body feels more relaxed, my energy levels are high and my mood has improved. I find the Elexoma machine very therapeutic as it clears my head and I am able to breathe easily and not have frightening episodes of heart palpations. I applaud the Elexoma machine for improving my general well being and the quality of my life. Thank you for a great product, good service and making it affordable for everyone.

SD, psychologist Durban

If there were a single word to sum up what I am seeing, is that people are feeling a new sense of clarity and resultant, HOPE! Isn't that wonderful? Today I treated a young lady of 29, who has always been seriously ADD, but had literally reached the end of the road, saying that she felt as though she was "falling apart". She is suffering from an overwhelming sadness, not having been able to stop crying for weeks. I let the CES (programme 1) run twice, while I allowed her to speak, and guided her when appropriate. The result was profound. She felt "lighter": I could see a change in her eyes and even her body language - something huge had shifted in the two hours we spent together. I will continue to monitor her, as she was in an extremely fragile place. I feel that this, in hindsight, will represent a clear dividing-line in her life.

A gentleman of 61, who has had ADD his whole life, is much calmer, more focused and getting the better of his procrastination. The subtle change started after the first treatment, and has had an accumulative effect over 4 sessions, over 10 days. His wife can't get over the change!!

I am so grateful for having found you, and the Elexoma. I know that I have added an extremely valuable tool to my box. Bless you in all the great work you are doing.

PdV Limpopo

My TN [trigeminale neuralgie] het heeltemal verdwyn. Die verloop was as volg: Die eerste dag na behandeling het die intensiteit van die aanvalle ongeveer met 50% afgeneem. Vanaf die derde dag het die aantal aanvalle per dag verminder. Na verloop van tyd was die enigste aanval in die oggend en ook net as ek vanaf my regtersy op my rug draai. Hierdie aanval het mettertyd ook verdwyn. Ek het tot so 4 dae gelede net ligte tintelings (geen pyn het daarmee gepaard gegaan nie) in my gesig gevoel as ek in 'n "trigger" situasie gekom het. Huidiglik kry ek glad nie meer die tintelings nie. Die laaste twee weke het my slaap na normaal teruggekeer, voor dit moes ek regop sit en slaap en dit het my nogal uitgeput.

Die CES het definitief ook 'n positiewe uitwerking. Nogmaals baie dankie die Elexoma is een van die beste dinge wat nog in my lewe gebeur het. Dit is die ergste pyn wat ek ooit in my lewe ervaar het.

Mr LH Bellville

Unbelievable, can't believe after getting such bad headaches every month and after using MC [microcurrent] for two weeks - no more headaches, I've told various friends who suffer from headaches to visit your site. Thanks, Doc.

Mrs GG Kimberley

....this Elexoma is fantastic!!!! I now use it twice a week on bridge club days...........don't think it's placebo effect....but I play better bridge when I use it (don't quote me)...

PdP White River

Although my machine got homesick and decided to return to George I would like to record my appreciation for the friendliness, helpfulness and product knowledge of Frank, Henning and Paul.

Mev IB Hartenbos

Die Elexoma werk uitstekend!!, ook sommer nou al vir sinusse en ander pyne en skete. Baie dankie vir 'n uitstekende produk!!!!!!!

YS George

Ek is so tevrede met hierdie masjien. Melandi was November 2012 'n jaar op die masjien en haar punte het verbeter van 41% na 52%. Sy het 'n probleem met migraine gehad as gevolg van die Ritalin. Sy is nou heeltemal van die pille af en het nog geen migraine aanval weer gekry nie. Sou daar een dreig, sit sy gou die masjien op en siedaar, weg is die pyn. Sy het nie meer nodig om uit die skool te bly nie en dit het in die verlede ten minste 2 maal per week gebeur vir 2 - 3 dae.

Ek is so bly om deel van hierdie familie te wees en sal almal aanbeveel om dit te probeer.

MD Cape Town

Thank you so much for making a difference in my life. It is undoubtedly a crippling feeling when every thought and situation suffocates you...and your head feels like it's going to explode....and what makes it worse is when people tell you to chill and relax and you just don't know what is going on in your head. So from the bottom of my heart I would like to thank you for assisting me in feeling calm, free and happy. Conditions that felt unreachable.

PB New Zealand

Wow I am so surprised that my Elexoma has already arrived today! How fast is that! I am having my first treatment now and will see how it goes. Thank you for all the info and great service.

SAvT East London

I used the Elexoma first time today and slept this afternoon for over 3 hours, so it already seems to have made a difference!

MK Polokwane

I am sitting in my office with the Elexoma on now.

I am sure without this little machine I would have thrown someone out of our top floor a while back already.

It seems to keep me cool, calm and collected.

KF Durbanville

We just want to say we LOVE the Elexoma! [My husband] and myself are both feeling much better in general, and also experiencing pain relief for our backs. Also, your manual is brilliantly written.

LS Cape Town

My Elexoma Medic has given me a new lease on life. I was diagnosed with burnout about 3 years ago, but was still working under very stressful conditions and as a result I started feeling anxious all the time. I have tried medication (main stream and herbal), but all without success. Now I find I only need to make use of the Elexoma Medic once a day. No medication needed and no anxiety.

IH Johannesburg

I must say I didn't expect the Elexoma to have such quick results. In the short time that I have been using it, it has vastly improved my quality of life in terms of getting rid of the brain fog and the increase in ability to concentrate! I'm also feeling a lot more relaxed.

IH Johannesburg

The best service levels I have ever received, in every way.

Keep it up.

RF Durban

Baie dankie die pakkie het gekom en WOW my ma se lyf voel soveel beter!!!! Sy het eintlik extra energie...

HH Pietermaritzburg

Just to let you know that the Elexoma continues to help some people…some with chronic back and hip pain, and just this last weekend, my sister who had acute rib pain from a fall in the bath-tub….not sure if it was merely a bruise, stretched muscle or even a minor "crack"….regardless, she did find relief after several treatments on program 4!

KG California, USA

[My husband] is doing really well. We were out for Chinese food with his family, and only he and I were eating with chopsticks, and I exclaimed, "And that's post-stroke, too!" And we realized that we'd forgotten all about [his] stroke. That was a really nice moment!

We've found lots of other uses for the Elexoma as well - it seems like a really useful thing to have around.

AM George

Over the past two months, we've been using the Elexoma on our son, who was diagnosed mildly autistic. Among other symptoms, he was emotionally distant and had almost daily violent anger outbursts when he felt his 'cocoon' threatened. In his rage, he would hit his siblings or himself. Today, we cannot believe it's the same child. He is emotionally warm and much more alert to social cues. He participates in the household with enthusiasm. And we've only had one or two anger outbursts, when we forgot to treat him the previous day. Thank you, Elexoma! This has been an answer to anguished prayer.

The Elexoma worked so well for refreshing my state of mind, that the box of Alprazolam the Dr prescribed me to get through my divorce in August [four months ago] is sitting in my desk with only 2 empty blisters. I began to make such good decisions that now, by December, I find myself sitting in a position with a great new second hand car, great little house, and my ex-husband and I have a very good understanding between us and easily make plans for our son together.

I observe that not everyone has the motivation to actually use the machine! Maybe some people enjoy whatever state of mind they are stuck in.

WV Durban

I'd like to say thanks for the device - it has really helped. After a couple days I suddenly noticed that the anxiety I would wake up with had disappeared. I also don't struggle with depression like I used to, after about 3 weeks of regular use. So thank you!

LL Northwest Province

I just have to tell you that I am suitably bowled over by your machine!!! After one treatment on my sinuses, I have woken up 3 mornings in a row without a sinus headache!

Now, what about the back & legs, you ask? Well, what can I say? After 3 sessions Wednesday I slept like a baby without a pillow under my knees!! When I got up on Thurs morning I didn't hobble in agony. Just got up and walked without ANY pain. And so we progress in leaps and bounds. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!!

I am so impressed that I took my miracle machine to a friend who suffers from ankylosing spondylysis and boy does she suffer! One treatment on her brain and one on her spine and she was more flexible and her shoulder was loose.

If I lived near George I would be there Mon morning to deliver you the best cheesecake you would have tasted! But sadly, I am over 1000km away.

Many thanks for your support and for being so kind to me!

RS, Clinical psychologist Durban

I am a psychologist in Durban and used to be a Police Psychologist in the SAPS. As a result of my work as a Police Psychologist, it became necessary to work extensively with psychological trauma and, when I left the SAPS to open a private practice, I carried on studying and working with trauma (using many modalities: CBT, biofeedback, clinical hypnosis, relaxation with visualisation, NLP 'Rewind Technique, and so on). I eventually stumbled on CES and then bought an Elexoma from Dr Frank Muller. Not only have I found CES to be of great personal benefit, but I also find that many of my clients benefit from having a CES treatment while we continue with counselling/psychotherapy.

My daughter (Grade 11) always uses CES (Elexoma) when she is preparing for exams and learning and on the morning of an exam ... she is a straight A student. I have also found CES benefits my Adult AD/HD clients and clients suffering from "Compassion Fatigue" (aka Burnout/Vicarious Traumatisation/Secondary Traumatic Stress).

The Elexoma Works Great for

Treatments

Looking for treatment protocols for specific conditions? Here they are!

Intensity

Headache

There are many types of headache and they respond somewhat differently to electrotherapy. Here are some basic protocols. Feel free to adapt them to your situation.

Insomnia

Sleeplessness is a big problem in our city-dwelling population. Electrotherapy has been clinically shown to significantly relieve the symptoms of insomnia by helping people fall asleep faster, fall asleep again when waking in the middle of the night, sleeping longer and sleeping deeper. The longer you have been struggling with insomnia, though, the LESS likely electrotherapy is to help you. Also, if you are using tranquilizers / benzodiazepines on a regular basis, you will find that CES actually worsens your insomnia. Even so, many people have successfully used the Elexoma to wean themselves off sleeping pills and are sleeping quite well now. But it is not a magic wand. Here are a few suggested treatment protocols to treat insomnia:

Treatment 1: CES (earlobe clips on the ears), Prog 1, 25 mins, ~300 to 550 uAmp once daily in the morning.
Treatment 2: MET (gel pads), Prog 3, 30 mins, ~500 uAmp once daily in the evening BEFORE bedtime. Use the pre-gelled electrodes with electrode placements as on p.26 of the manual.
Treatment 3: MET (gel pads), Prog 1, 99 mins, 550 uAmp once daily while sleeping.. Place the pre-gelled electrodes just behind the shoulder, on either side of the neck (only use ONE treatment lead, placement of the red and the black electrode NOT important).

Pain

Pain is by far the commonest complaint with which patients present to their healthcare professional. The Elexoma Medic is highly effective in the treatment of acute and chronic pain.

Acute pain

Treat acute pain with programme 2 or 4, depending on severity. If programme 4 does not help, then programme 8 is your friend.

For menstrual cramps, use programme 2 and place the electrodes on either side of the waist.

Chronic pain

Treat chronic pain with either programme 3 or 6, depending on severity of pain.

For pain due to joint problems (arthritis, hip replacement, etc), use programme 7. You can order smaller electrodes if you wish, to treat painful finger joints.

Attention-Deficit (Hyperactivity) Disorder (ADHD)

Even though the existence of the “disorder” itself is still in dispute in some medical circles, this has not stopped an entire industry from developing around this “disorder”. The Elexoma Medic is able to rapidly increase concentration span and improves all aspects of memory (memorising, retention and recall). It has been successfully used by dozens of school-going children to improve attention span and concentration, leading to drastically improved results. It must be emphasised, however, that the Elexoma Medic is no replacement for hard work, it simply helps the hard work to pay off. No technology on earth can provide motivation – that comes from within.

Drug withdrawal

The Elexoma Medic is often used by people who want to withdraw from drugs, whether of the prescription type or of the recreational type. Drug withdrawal is a complex and potentially dangerous procedure and should not be undertaken without the support of a healthcare professional.

Parkinson’s Disease

Clinical studies have shown little or no benefit for the use of CES in the treatment of Parkinson’s Disease and its symptoms. However, many anecdotes support the use of CES in the early stages of Parkinson’s Disease. It can alleviate tremors and help the facial muscles to remain functional for much longer.

Wound healing

Skin lesions (Acute / chronic)

To assist wound healing in recent wounds, you can use either programme 2 or 4. These two programmes are identical in all respects, except in their duration (15 min vs 25 min). Treat for longer time for larger wounds. One treatment per day is all that is needed, but you can treat for longer or more often a day if you wish.

Example: Surgery – if you are going in for elective surgery, treat the area to be cut a few hours BEFORE you go into theatre, and then daily after surgery.

Electrode placement: Any placement that brackets the injured site is good. It does not even have to be close to the wound site, as long as the current flows through the wound site. Positive and negative placement not so important here.

Healing chronic wounds: Use programme 3 and bracket the wound site with the electrodes. Again, the electrodes do not need to be close to the wound site, as long as the current flows through the injured area. Once a day is enough. You should see significant results within four to six weeks. As with acute wounds, the placement of positive and negative electrodes relative to the wound site is NOT critically important.

Muscle injuries (Acute / chronic)

For acute muscle injuries, use programme 5. Electrode placement depending on the muscle group affected (see the manual for optimal placement options). If programme 5 does not help much within the first day, proceed to programme 8. Programme 8 is identical to programme 5, except that it allows you to use much higher intensities of current (which penetrate deeper into the muscle). For larger muscle groups and larger injuries, programme 8 will be the better option. Programme 8 is also useful when more than one site needs to be treated.

Nerve injuries (Acute / chronic)

For recent nerve injuries, use either programme 4, 5 or 8 (depending on how deep below the skin the injury is and how much pain is involved – higher programme for greater injury). Electrode placement as for other injuries in 1.1.

For older nerve injuries, use programme 3 or programme 6, depending on how much pain is experienced (programme 6 is the “stronger” programme). Electrode placement as above.

CES Treatment without earclip electrodes

If your Elexoma Medic alarm keeps sounding whenever you reach 200 uAmp, no matter what you do, it is most likely that your earclip electrodes are at fault. You can now either order a new set of earclip electrodes or use this little trick: 1) Use one set of the MET cables with two pre-gelled electrodes. 2) Place the pre-gelled electrodes behind either ear (see diagram). If this is not comfortable, any placement at the back of the neck, on either side of the midline will do fine, too. 3) Use programme 1 at 200 – 300 uA for 25 minutes (the standard settings for CES). 4) Placement of the black and red electrodes (left or right) is NOT important, since programme 1 is biphasic (“alternating current”).

Your Brain Is An Electric Organ - Play It Well!

Uses

The brain contains nearly 90 billion neurons – nearly as many stars in the Milky Way! What is more, each neuron connects to thousands of other neurons, resulting in trillions of connections. All these neurons are constantly talking to each other, using chemistry to produce electricity. Each electrical signal carries a message that changes some part of the body.

But what happens when things go wrong? When signals don’t reach their target organs or other parts get too many signals? The traditional response is to use chemicals to direct the electrical signals differently (a bit like using a shotgun to kill a fly). These drugs have side effects that can even be life-threatening at times.

What the Elexoma Medic does is it increases the energy inside the neurons by 500 to 800%. It provides tiny electrical impulses to the body, stimulating cells to make a range of chemicals essential for peak performance. When applied to the brain, the nerve cells are stimulated to communicate faster and better. The brain uses this extra energy to improve performance.

Anxiety

Feel like you can’t breathe? Or perhaps don’t feel ‘real’, or for some reason believe you’re about to die. You can’t sleep, your thoughts are racing, you cannot calm down and everything is on edge. Suffering from IBS, muscle tension, sweaty hands or feet, dry mouth, or a heart palpitations?

Elexoma provides relief from panic attacks, PTSD, General Anxiety Disorder, as well as phobias. The benefits are:

Treatment is chemical free, so it’s safe – even for pregnant women.
You can treat yourself in the safety of your own home.
It won’t override your personality.
It will give you an extra boost to get you through the day.
One treatment lasts several days.
It naturally increases serotonin, putting your brain in a ‘good mood’.

The earlobe electrodes are dipped in tap water and then clipped on the earlobes. Programme 1 on the Elexoma device is the standard brain stimulation programme. The intensity is set to somewhere between 100 uAmp and 550 uAmp (the maximum). Most people barely feel any tingling on the skin. One 25 minute treatment a day is enough for treating anxiety, but some people may need two treatments (morning and evening). There is no need to disrupt your routine to treat yourself. You can continue with your daily tasks during treatment.

GG Bloemfontein, Free State, South Africa

This Elexoma is fantastic.....use it almost every morning as I'm going through a very stressful time and I'm now sure it helps anxiety and depression tremendously. We have recently returned from Sydney and used CES on my husband for his phobia of being cooped up on plane for so long. Also relieved his headaches, he didn't take pain pills for weeks. I can no longer imagine life without this little miracle!!! Took it to Sydney and definitely shortened jetlag. Thank you, have recommended to many people!

TC Durbanville, Western Cape, South Africa

I know that Elexoma definitely helps a lot. This is really sure. My anxiety was gone very soon after I started using it. And I didn't have any anxiety coming off from tablets. I think you should put my case in your website. [This lady has a decades-long history of regular hospital admissions for anxiety and depression. She is now completely free from all medication.]

Dr. Jon M The Wildnerness, Western Cape, South Africa

“[Patient] in late fifties; recently divorced out of abusive relationship with alcoholic: suffering with generalised anxiety disorder for the last two years, recurrent headaches (almost daily), insomnia. After four treatments she is sleeping better, no anxiety, NO headaches and “feels better than I can remember”.

Here’s why the Elexoma is so effective in helping with anxiety:

“I’ll admit it. I was quite skeptical. How could a little device make people happy? Life just does not work like that. Due to my past experience in electrotherapy, I was originally consulted to comment on the Elexoma’s performance in real-life situations. Taking careful notes and studying every bit of published research on CES (Cranial Electrotherapy Stimulation) I could lay my fingers on, I observed its effects in a wide range or situations. The effects were astonishing, to put it mildly. Symptoms of stress or anxiety would resolve in a matter of minutes or hours in most cases. Just about everyone reported sleeping better and deeper.” Doc Frank – Integrow Health, George

82% of participants in one study suffering from an anxiety disorder reported a significant improvement in their symptoms after treatment with CES. (Kirsch D, Gilula MF, Electromedicine: CES in the Treatment of Anxiety Disorders, Practical Pain Management, March 2007, pp 40-47.)

A summary of eight controlled trials on the effects of CES on anxiety revealed an average 58% reduction in anxiety signs and symptoms. (Klawansky S, Yeung A, et al., Meta-analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials of Cranial Electrostimulation, The Journal of Nervous and Mental Disease, 1995: 183(7), pp 478-484.)

Attention span

Where did my attention span go?

If you want to achieve any kind of goal, it is generally agreed you need to FOCUS! Oh look, there’s something shiny….

Jokes aside, if you’re finding that the length of time for which you’re able to concentrate on an activity or subject is worsening – or if you just want to improve your attention span overall – CES is an excellent option. The Elexoma Medic can increase your attention span without drugs – what a bonus!

One study showed a remarkable 382% increase in attention and concentration span after a single treatment. In other words, you become more vigilant and aware of your surroundings during and after a CES treatment. There are many applications of this phenomenon, for example in sports where the athlete has to concentrate intently (e.g., archery, gymnastics, golf) or during studying. People with shortened attention span can also benefit from CES treatment. It is beneficial for sufferers of ADD / ADHD, as well as for improved concentration for studying,

If you have the attention span of a goldfish, Elexoma offers help. Contact us today to order yours!

Autism

The incidence of autism is rapidly on the increase in many Western countries. The exact cause for this is unknown, but the devastating effect it has on parents and siblings is undeniable.

Signs and symptoms of autism usually present themselves in early childhood, in the form of communication and relationship difficulties with others, as well as the use of language and abstract concepts.

CES offers alternative, non-invasive treatment for children with autism. While using the Elexoma they can continue with everyday activities such as reading, watching TV or listening to music. Effects can often be seen immediately, but also take a while to build up. In general, the Elexoma benefits autistic children in the form of:

Mental focus – feeling more alert
Decreased anxiety – feeling more relaxed
Increased energy – feeling less fatigued

In addition to overall mood improvement, there are little to no side effects. Call us to find out how the Elexoma Medic can be used to treat autism.

Depression

The earlobe electrodes are dipped in tap water and then clipped on the earlobes. Programme 1 on the Elexoma device is the standard brain stimulation programme. The intensity is set to somewhere between 100 uAmp and 550 uAmp (the maximum). Most people barely feel any tingling on the skin. One 25 minute treatment a day is enough for most cases of depression, but some people may need two treatments (morning and evening). There is no need to disrupt your routine to treat yourself. You can continue with your daily tasks during treatment.

MM Port Elizabeth, Eastern Cape, South Africa

"The benefit I have obtained from the CES is nothing short of astounding. I have a high pressure job which has resulted in constant anxiety and stress which resulted in depression. That has dissipated to a large extent since I started using the device. I will watch the longer term effect with excitement."

AN Wisconsin, USA

"Thank you so much, again, for the Elexoma. I know it works!!! I am not taking any of the meds anymore. I am forever grateful!!!"

NJ King William's Town, South Africa

I'm a 37 year old female who has been battling with depression for approximately 4 years ... my condition got from bad to worse and started affecting my professional and personal life.

...I started with CES and that evening already slept like a little baby and I don't feel as anxious as I normally do and my head feels "clearer".

I want to thank you so much for such a great machine, I know now for sure that it will improve my life.

Treatment time

Side effects

CES increases the levels of serotonin in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). Serotonin is one of your brain’s ‘feel good’ messengers. The more serotonin floating in the CSF, the happier your brain. One study showed a 61% increase in CSF-serotonin after only a single 20 minute treatment. This effect isn’t always clearly noticeable, but that is because of the way we rationalise our experiences. Elexoma users are often heard saying, ‘I’m not sure if it’s the Elexoma, but I’m feeling really great since I started using it!’ The effect is subtle, but undeniable. And the effect lasts for a couple of days after a single treatment – that’s powerful. So, to enhance your mood and to cope with stress, CES is a marvellous tool. It won’t ‘override’ your personality or circumstances, but it will give you that extra little boost that often is all you need to get through a really hectic day. And the best thing about CES treatment is that is has none of the unfortunate side effects that you often encounter with depression medication.

How long does the Elexoma take before effects on depression become clear?

Typically about a week, If you are using prescription antidepressants, it may take up to a month before effects become noticeable.

RETURN TO ANSWERS

Can I use the Elexoma with my antidepressants?

Yes, there’s no known or observed interaction between microcurrent and prescription antidepressants.

RETURN TO ANSWERS

Will I be able to stop my antidepressants once I use the Elexoma?

Once your mood is stable on the Elexoma, it is mostly possible to withdraw from prescription antidepressants without experiencing a depression relapse. NOTE: This should ONLY be done in conjunction with your prescribing doctor.

RETURN TO ANSWERS

Do I need to use the Elexoma for the rest of my life to prevent depression relapse?

In almost all cases, microcurrent resolves depression symptoms in 6 months or less. However, to continue benefitting from the deep sleep, focused attention and better conflict resolution that regular microcurrent (CES) treatment provides, it is advised that you treat yourself at least three times a week for as long as you can.

Fibromyalgia

Fibromyalgia aches and pains?

Sore points on your neck, shoulders, back, arms, legs or hips? Pain on your right and left side, as well as above and below the waist? You may be suffering from fibromyalgia. Your pain can also go along with symptoms such as insomnia, IBS, headaches, or tingling extremities, to name a few. Fibromyalgia can be difficult to diagnose, but women appear to suffer from it more than men – and are often diagnosed with it around middle age.

If you feel you can’t take the pain anymore, and you’re eager to treat your fibromyalgia without medication – we suggest you try the Elexoma Medic.

Loving it – it has certainly helped me with the fibromyalgia – mostly using the earlobe electrodes. – HU, Johannesburg

The Elexoma does an impressive job of reducing pain. In 1999 a study was conducted at various centres, testing the benefits of CES on fibromyalgia. Within three weeks, participants saw significant improvements in their mood, pain levels, quality of sleep and overall wellbeing.

Living with fibromyalgia needn’t be a pain, get your Elexoma today!

Headaches

Suffering from persistent headaches? Have you ever experienced….?

Severe headache with dizziness, nausea, neck pain, weakness, fatigue, or eye pain,
Pain like an ice pick to the temples, or like being hit in the head,
Generalised pressure just behind your eyes,
Feeling as if there is a ring around your head,
Throbbing, squeezing or stabbing pain in your head or your neck?

Is there a healthy, safe and effective alternative to treat a headache? Yes! The Elexoma uses microcurrent therapy to deal with severe headaches:

It’s chemical free, so safe for you (and your baby if you’re pregnant).
You can treat yourself in the comfort of your own home.
Microcurrent has little to no side effects.
Microcurrent helps your brain feel alert, unlike medication that will leave you drowsy or unable to concentrate.

How long does the Elexoma take before effects on my headache become clear?

This depends on the type and cause of headache. Most users report an immediate reduction in the frequency and intensity of headaches, even after the first treatment. In some cases, headaches disappear completely, in other cases they become extremely rare (once or twice per year instead of weekly).

RETURN TO ANSWERS

Can I use the Elexoma Medic with my analgesics?

Yes, you can. There is no interaction between the Elexoma Medic and any analgesics. You will find that you do not need to take as many analgesics as you used to, and, in some cases, will be able to stop using them altogether.

RETURN TO ANSWERS

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.

CES is remarkably beneficial in the prevention and treatment of headaches, including migraines.The next time you experience a headache, run programme 1 on the Elexoma and see how the headache disappears in a matter of minutes. If you suffer from regular headaches, treat yourself daily and you will find the regularity, duration AND intensity of the headaches steadily decreasing over one or two months. Persist with daily treatment for a couple of months and your regular headaches could be something of the past.

Johan Engelbrecht Johannesburg, Gauteng, South Africa

"I was first diagnosed with severe migraines back in 2001. After that, I could never enjoy a rich meal or even look into bright colours of items etc. In 2003, after a big rugby match, I had a migraine attack so bad that I was hospitalised for almost a month. They did a CAT Scan and MRI to see if the cause wasn't a tumour of some sort, luckily not. I went from doctor to doctor, changed my eating plan, started exercising, but still nothing helped. I thought that this was one thing I will keep for life. Eventually, after having 3 migraines in a row in one week, I decided that no matter what the cost - I needed help. I found a link to your website and at first I thought, yeah right, another money making scam, but decided to hire it from you. To my surprise, up till today - NOT A SINGLE MIGRAINE, AND BY THE WAY - I ALSO SLEEP BETTER, I have not been using any sleeping tablets. I would recommend the Elexoma to anyone to try out."

TG Cape Town, Western Cape, South Africa

"I am a very busy mom of three children. My eldest son of eight suffers from autism. I hardly have time for myself and after discovering the benefits of the Elexoma machine, I spent a few minutes a day unwinding with my machine. My life has improved dramatically. I now live a healthy and fulfilling life without feeling tense and being crippled by cluster headaches. I am no longer on medication for my chronic headaches and my body feels more relaxed, my energy levels are high and my mood has improved. I find the Elexoma very therapeutic as it clears my head and I am able to breathe easily and not have frightening episodes of heart palpations. I applaud the Elexoma for improving my general well being and the quality of my life. Thank you for a great product, good service and making it affordable for everyone."

Mr LH Bellville, Western Cape, South Africa

"Unbelievable, can't believe after getting such bad headaches every month and after using MC (microcurrent) for two weeks, no more headaches, I've told various friends who suffer from headaches to visit your site. Thanks, Doc!"

Injuries

The Elexoma Medic can effectively facilitate healing in recent wounds, especially in cases involving:

Surgery
Chronic wounds
Muscle injury
Nerve injury
Spinal cord injury
Nerve regrowth

Soft tissue injury

Microcurrent therapy is excellent rehabilitative treatment for soft tissue injury, as it ‘resets’ electrical balance in the tissue, helping to increase the rate at which healing occurs. It also reduces the severity of exercise-induced muscle injury.

If you are going in for scheduled surgery, treat the area to be cut a few hours before you go into theatre, and then daily after surgery.

Nerve regrowth

Nerve regrowth does well with MET, but can take up to 3 to 6 months for results to show. You’ll know healing is taking place when you feel “pins and needles” in the area supplied by the injured nerve.

Joint Pain

The Elexoma brings improved joint health

There are around 100 types of arthritis – too many to list here!

Your knees, your hips, your feet and other joints take strain – through general wear-and-tear as you age or through injury or obesity. Conditions like osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis are painful and debilitating, but the good news is that microcurrent therapy reduces joint pain and can improve the quality of your life. It relieves the perpetual discomfort and stiffness you are experiencing, enough to let you move closer to a healthy, more active lifestyle.

You can use the Elexoma for arthritis, hip replacement, even painful finger joints.

Memory

Memory & Learning

Mood

CES has the most remarkable effect on mood. The Elexoma is useful for treating anxiety disorders, stress, depression, obsessive compulsive disorders and even autism. Some other benefits are:

It’s chemical free – safe even during pregnancy.
You can treat yourself in the comfort of your own home.
No side effects!
It won’t override your personality.
It gives you a little extra boost to get through the day, unlike medication that can leave you sleepy and unfocused.
One treatment lasts several days.
It naturally increases serotonin.

Neuropathy

I have neuropathy, please help?

Neuropathy occurs when peripheral nerves suffer damage, with initial burning sensations in the hands and feet, followed by tingling, numbness or weakness. It’s a painful, debilitating condition.

If you’re suffering and looking for treatment without drugs, there’s help available.

The Elexoma relieves neuropathic pain – low-frequency current delivered to the problem area reduces inflammation and accelerates healing. It helps strengthen muscles, getting you up and moving again. Treatment is safe, with virtually no side-effects.

Obsessive Compulsive Disorders

Obsessive Compulsive Disorders (OCDs) are not just about being extra tidy or checking the locks repeatedly, but can involve developing irrational fears, compulsions and even losing touch with reality. Excessive washing, cleaning or checking is simply an attempt to diffuse the rising anxiety. OCDs are highly distressing to those suffering from it. It negatively affects relationships and this often leads to anxiety and increased obsessive compulsive behaviour. Medication for OCDs is available, but the side effects are often unpleasant.

Can the Elexoma Medic help? Yes! The Elexoma brings immediate relief, but positive effects also build up over time:

It stops your mind from racing, helping you to relax.
It brings sleeping patterns back to normal.
It’s a perfect solution if medication is not an option for you.
There are no side effects.
It won’t override your personality.
You can treat yourself safely in the comfort of your own home.

Pain

Productivity

How much is your productivity worth? As a rough guide, take last month’s turnover and divide by 20. That is your daily worth to your small business.

Now think back to yesterday. Where you really as productive as you could have been? If you’re anything like me, your answer is probably, “No.” And, if you’re brutally honest, the reasons for this less-than-stellar productivity all point in one direction: You got distracted.

From being a terrible vice just 20 years ago, distraction has become a virtue in our society. Everyone is multitasking, which is another way of saying everyone is doing lots of things badly, all at the same time.

It’s not just work that disrupts our work (if only). There is that book of faces (or maybe other bits of anatomy) that requires a sneak peak every half hour or so. There are emails, skype chats, telephone calls, text messages, BBMs, WhatsApps… There are colleagues, employees, suppliers, couriers. Heck, it’s actually a wonder you got any work done at all.

Here’s the thing: Deep down, we actually invite interruptions. They make us feel wanted. Being in a small business, loneliness is often your only friend. We try to fill this loneliness with “social media” (the ultimate oxymoron of our time), or other distractions. We don’t really like the distractions – they leave us feeling empty. But we fear the loneliness of getting on with our work. You know, the stuff we do that puts bread on the table and money in the bank. Quite frankly, we are borderline depressed at the best of times, and not a little anxious as we lie awake at night, trying to figure out how to pay the bills.

If you go and see your typical general practitioner (or shrink, as the case may be) about your mood and fears, chances are you’ll walk away with a prescription for pills that will take the edge off your emotions. Sadly they will also take the edge off lots of other things, like your ability to think clearly and act decisively. Certainly not what you need to survive at the helm of HMS Small Business.

If your business is suffering under your emotional state, I’d like to share an alternative solution with you. It’s a Productivity Tool de luxe (which means it is tax deductible) and it is backed up by an impressive guarantee. It is not a pill, nor a self-help course, but a device. A device that gets your brain back into balance faster than you can say, “Usain Bolt.” Here are some of the benefits you can expect to see:

Your mood will be lifted almost immediately.
You will be able to focus clearly and calmly, especially in times of crisis.
Anxiety and tension will resolve, often from the first treatment.
You will be able to solve complex problems much, much faster than you do now.
Your memory will improve dramatically from the very first treatment
Anger outbursts will be eliminated within a short time.
You will sleep better, often from the first treatment.
Headaches, even severe ones, are eliminated, often from the first treatment.

Does this sound too good to be true? The device is already being used by more than 30 Business Warriors, as well as many top level executives at multi-billion South African enterprises and dozens of creative folks like graphic designers, artists and musicians. None of them has made use of the incredible guarantee backing up this device. They are all doing better at what they’re good at.

Safety? After more than 60 years of research and public use, not a single harmful side effect was ever recorded. The American Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved this device as being safe. Even better, this device will not wilt your willy (au contraire) or fog up your brain. Unlike the chemical options.

Risk? Zero, zip, zilch. If you buy it, there’s a One Year money back guarantee. You can’t do better than that. If you’re not happy, simply return the device and get all your money back.

Upside? You work faster and more focused, you earn more, your marriage runs smoother and your kids do better at school.

Price? More or less as much as one day in the office is worth to you.

Sciatica / Back Pain

A pain in the ….?

Anyone who’s put their back out can tell you it’s no laughing matter. Back pain or sciatica can make even the slightest movement an absolute living hell.

Sciatica can be particularly nasty. It’s a lot like the pain from a toothache, just obviously a whole lot lower down. It causes pain in the hips, your lower back, behind your thigh, spreading down the back of your leg – and is a result of irritation to the sciatic nerve, likely brought on by lumbar disc herniation. If coughing or sneezing brings on a shooting pain, you’re likely suffering from sciatica.

If you’ve had doctors mutter words at you like degenerative disc disease, or spondylolisthesis, or spinal stenosis then you are no stranger to the incapacitating effects of back pain. Back pain can also be a result of strained back muscles or damage to bones, ligaments, or joints. Your pain could be sharp, constant, radiating or even referred pain (the cause of it being elsewhere, not in the spot where you’re feeling the hurt).

The Elexoma Medic can surely help! It eases lower back pain, upper back pain – even relieving painful sciatica. No medication needed.

CES increases daytime vigilance, but it also helps people to sleep deeper and more restfully at night. This is very useful for people who have difficulty falling asleep, or who wake up in the middle of the night and then struggle to fall asleep again. However, restoring sleep in cases where a person has been suffering from sleeplessness for months or years is not easy. If you suffer from long-term sleep problems, you may have to treat yourself for a number of months before you notice any real difference.

CES once daily (preferably mornings) is the baseline. 200 – 300 uAmp.

In addition: At night, you might want to try programme 6, both leads, red sticky pads on the forehead (either side of the midline, not touching each other) and the corresponding black electrodes on the back of the neck, either side of the midline, not touching each other. You can go up to 1,000 uAmp. Don’t be scared if you see flickers, this is normal and safe. Do this 15 minutes before you want to go sleep, for 15 minutes.

Insomnia takes a while to respond to treatment, but the effects are cumulative.

If you wake up in the middle of the night and have trouble falling asleep again, use programme 1, earclips, 200 uAmp to fall asleep again (or, if the sticky pads from programme 6 are still on the machine, take one set of stickies and stick them on the bare patch of skin behind each ear – red and black not relevant).

I want to thank you so much for such a great machine, I know now for sure that it will improve my life."
