Electrosleep is one of the methods of electrotherapy based on the use of low-frequency pulsed currents.

General information

Electrosleep therapy was developed by Soviet doctors and scientists in 1949. The procedure uses devices that generate voltage pulses of constant polarity.

The current, having a direct effect on the central nervous system, causes inhibition and slowing down of reactions that lead to sleep. It has a calming and antihypoxic effect, but does not cause vagal influence, does not lead to intoxication.

The pulsed current with its monotonous rhythmic effect acts as an irritant to the hypothalamus. As a result, the psycho-emotional background of a person is activated.

Due to the release of endorphins, the so-called "hormones of joy", the mood improves, fatigue and stress pass. Electrosleep physiotherapy has a beneficial effect on all body systems - blood and lymph flow is stimulated, hormones are released, cholesterol levels are normalized.
