    The New Platinum Standard for Treatment of PTSD

    As a clinical psychologist for 25 years and user of CES and MET in both military and civilian practice for 16+ years, there simply is NOTHING that produces such phenomenal results as these forms of technology, without side effects, or tolerance.  Additionally, black box warnings for 36 separate  mood-altering medications were just released in July of 2007.  Do the math. The answer is simple. It is incumbent upon us as practitioners to offer everything in our box of mental health munitions to those who seek our services for the amelioration of their suffering. Doing no harm includes educating ourselves about those forms of treatment that provide results and significant ones at that.

     What is the most acceptable way for a patient to bring this to a VA doc's attention?

    The most successful way to request an Alpha-Stim from your VA practitioner is for you, the veteran, to take supporting documentation such as brochures and research studies applicable to the your condition and a written statement of why you want to use Alpha-Stim technology (such as other treatment is not working well enough, too many side effects, or too expensive or time consuming). I have helped many deserving and qualified veterans acquire an Alpha-Stim through the VA and will be glad to assist. You may contact me by emailing Tonja@epii.com.
