Ārsta komentārs:

Alpha-stim ir mūsdienīga, droša, un, galvenais, efektīva medicīnas metode, ko rekomendējam pacientiem ar nemieru, depresiju, baiļu sajūtu, bezmiegu, sāpēm. Svarīgi, ka elektroterapeitiskajai stimulācijai, atšķirībā no medikamentozas terapijas, nav nevēlamu blakņu. Ierīce var būt pacienta sabiedrotais gan mājas, gan komandējumā, gan izbraucienā, jo ir portatīva un ērta lietošanā. Esam šo ierīci atzinīgi novērtējuši ikdienas praksē, jo ar salīdzinoši nelieliem izdevumiem varam būtiski uzlabot savu pacientu dzīves kvalitāti.

To var apliecināt arī mani kolēģi Latvijā un citās valstīs, kas praksē izmanto Alpha-stim.
