Transcranial Alternating current stimulation tACS
tACS is a powerful, smooth Neuro Modulator altering the brain and behavior. tACS modulates perception,cognition, motor activity and consciousness by modulating the brain waves.
tACS stimulation causes Serotonin, norepinephrine, Acetylcholine and endorphin release at different levels of the brain. tACS at various intensity levels improves:
Memory
Learning
Strength
Sensation
Reasoning
Hearing
Anxiety
Perception
Reaction Times
Movement
Pain
Sleep Improvement
Induces Lucid dreams
Helps in recovering from Alcoholism
Drug Addiction and withdrawal symptoms.
Useful in Schizophernia
Adverse events associated with tACS include redness (erythema) under and around electrodes, tingling of the scalp during stimulation, and in some cases flashing lights in the eyes without light actually entering the eye.
tACS advantages:
1. time requirement – Treatment sessions can be as short as two minutes and do not need to be longer than five minutes and the more traditional tDCS (direct current) are normally 20 minutes long.
2. Induces ideal brain wave activity: tACs modulates brain waves to the ideal alpha rhythm
