"Electrosonotherapy," sounds scary. After all, it is already clear from the name that a person will be affected by an electric current during this procedure. However, the fear of this procedure is completely unfounded. Because the body receives a low-frequency current of low power. A person does not suffer any pain or discomfort during a method of therapy such as electrosleep. That this treatment is able to get rid of many diseases, agrees everyone who at least once went through this procedure. Let's try to find out more about her.
Electrosleep: what is it
Let's get it right. The procedure for the impact of low-frequency pulses on the human nervous system is electrosleep. What does this treatment give to a person? This electrotherapy normalizes the nervous system, slows it down, which allows you to fall asleep more quickly, restores neuro-trophic disorders.
In 1948, then still by Soviet scientists, this procedure was developed and apparatuses were assembled with which it was possible to carry out it. A series of devices received the same name with the procedure itself.
Principle of operation
A person is connected to the Electroson apparatus. Low-frequency current flows through the eye sockets. It moves along the nerves and vessels of the brain. Current stimulates the central nervous system, cortex, subcortical formations, pituitary gland and other parts of the brain.
The mode of supply of pulsed currents is rhythmic and monotonous. In general, the procedure is aimed at immersion in the patient’s sleep.
Experts agree: natural sleep has the same quality as electric sleep. That this treatment does not poison the human body is proven. And the procedure is not addictive.
Electricity technique
For electrosonotherapy, a specialized apparatus is used that has two phases of operation.
The first phase - lowering blood pressure, normalizing nervous processes. During this phase of electric sleep, a person relaxes and falls into sleep.
The second phase, and the last, improves mood, increases efficiency and normalizes vitality.
Electrosleep: indications and contraindications
Many questions concern this. Naturally, like any therapeutic procedure, it has electric sleep indications and contraindications. It is important to know them - this is necessary for making the right decision.
Indication for use has the following:
- Diseases of the gastrointestinal tract.
- Body recovery.
- Neurosis.
- Hypertension.
- Bronchial asthma.
- Atherosclerosis.
- Vibration disease.
- Ischemia.
- Hypertension
- Enuresis.
- Neurodermatitis.
In addition to curing diseases, electrosleep accelerates metabolism, improves blood coagulation, and improves mood. The latter is associated with the launch of endorphin synthesis. When the brain is stimulated by current pulses, sexual function normalizes, and blood cholesterol levels decrease. In addition to all of the above, electric sleep is used as an antispasmodic. Doctors use it as one of the methods of recovery after traumatic brain injuries. The safety of the procedure is evidenced by the fact that it is prescribed for pregnant women, with severe toxicosis and to prepare for childbirth. It is worth noting that with the help of electric sleep there is an opportunity to cure alcohol addiction.
The electrosleep of contraindications has such:
- Individual intolerance.
- Epilepsy.

- Retinal disinsertion.
- Myopia.
- Microstroke.
- Retinal pigment degeneration.
- Oncological diseases.
- Metal objects in the skull.
These are just the main contraindications to the electrosleep procedure. Is electrosotherapy possible, only a specialist decides, after a diagnosis, which is carried out individually in each case.
Electrosleep for children
To normalize blood circulation and stability of the central nervous system in children, electric sleep is also used. Reviews of parents whose child went through this procedure are extremely positive.
The child receives an appointment for electrosleep from the attending physician. The specialist, in turn, has the right to write out the procedure only on the basis of the general picture of the disease. Electrosleep for children has been widely used due to the fact that it is more gentle than medical treatment.
The main indications for the appointment of treatment:
- Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder.
- Neurosis.
- Vegetovascular dystonia.
How is the procedure in children
All children without exception endure the procedure calmly and easily. For its implementation, the child is laid on a horizontal surface. It is covered with a light blanket or blanket. A special mask is put on the face. The mask has four sensors, through which current pulses arrive.
The phases of electrosonotherapy for children are exactly the same as for adults. During the first phase of electric sleep, the child relaxes, snoozes, in some cases there was a dream. In the second phase, there is a therapeutic effect on the child's body. The duration of the procedure is on average half an hour, for a teenager - about one hour.
At the end of the procedure, the child feels a surge of strength, lightness, and relaxation. Nausea, dizziness, and headaches, which may, in exceptional cases, appear after the end of the procedure, indicate inappropriate treatment. After such symptoms, the sessions of electrosotherapy are discontinued.
Elektroson - a step to the superman
In the harsh conditions of life in large cities, a person should always remain healthy, full of energy. But, unfortunately, not many can do it. Caffeine artificially encourages a person, but his properties are still lacking. It only spurs the already driven organism. But activity, cheerfulness and lightness can be obtained only after a good rest.
Domestic and foreign scientists in the course of experiments with the electric power have found that it is an excellent substitute for quick rest and recovery of strength. So, the performance of students who completed the procedure became much higher. They have become more cheerful and purposeful.
Before you run to sign up for the electrosleep procedure, you must undergo consultations and diagnostics with a therapist and physiotherapist. This is due to the need to identify the possible presence of contraindications in humans.
