WARNINGS FOR USING CRANIO-ELECTRO
STIMULATION (CES)
Do not
use if you have a heart pacer. The electrical signals may
cause pacer malfunction.
Do not
use on anyone with epilepsy, brain tumour or recent stroke.
Do not
use while driving or operation hazardous machinery.
Do not
place electrodes over skin lesions, new scars, cuts eruptions
or sunburn
Setting the intensity too high may result in a mild irritation or
blistering of the skin. Set the intensity to lower levels so that the
stimulus is only mildly noticeable. A double blind study showed
that CES works at sub-threshold (below feeling level).
WARNINGS FOR USING AUDIO-VISUAL
ENTRAINMENT (AVE)
If you are an epileptic or photic epileptic:
We recommend that
people with a history of epilepsy and/or photic epilepsy
not
use
AVE unless under the supervision of a medical doctor.
If you are taking drugs or using alcohol:
We recommend
that
people currently using drugs (prescription or recreational) and/or
excessive alcohol consumption consult with their doctor before
using AVE.
If you are a first-time AVE user:
We advise that you always
remain seated or reclined while using AVE. We also suggest that
new users always begin sessions with low intensity (brightness) in
the eyesets. If at any time during a session, you begin to feel
vertigo, nausea, or a sense of mental instability, lower the intensity
of the eyesets and lower the volume of the tones or
discontinue
the session
.
Traumatic Childhood Experiences
– AVE can cause the release
of suppressed memories. If traumatic memories surface during or
after a session, be certain to seek appropriate support.
Somnatic Shock
- If abruptly returning to a normal conscious
state
, a mild case of somnatic shock can result, leaving the user
feeling disoriented, nauseous, or experiencing a headache. All
preset sessions in the DAVID PAL36 with CES are programmed to
end with the lights fading out (Soft Off
TM
) to avoid this.
Orthostatic Hypotension
- Occasionally, when a person becomes
very relaxed during a session, his/her blood pressure may fall
significantly. We advise rising slowly after a session.
