THERAPEUTIC AND RESTORATIVE APPLICATIONS OF AVE IN THE PROFESSIONAL'S OFFICE

Due to chronic stress and a hectic lifestyle, imbalances in the ratios
between brain neurotransmitters, genetic hereditary factors, or chronic
malnutrition, the brain may be unable to adapt its level of
arousal to match what is needed for the effective performance of ordinary
activities of daily living. For example, in people with a hectic lifestyle, chronic
stress, or anxiety disorders, the dominant brain rhythms are of high frequency,
the processes of excitation dominate constantly, and it is difficult for these people to relax or
fall asleep. DAVID AVE devices help the brain to break out of these and other problematic
states as gradually, by changing the rhythm of the external audio-visual or weak
electro-stimulation, they encourage the brain to respond and change the frequency of
its dominant rhythms.

An important goal of AVE is to create a dissociative state (distancing from thoughts and
sensations of the body), which is similar to deep relaxation. The restorative benefits of
this state for the body, brain, and psyche are what make AVE so useful in
a significant number of diverse health disorders. This deep state of AVE-
induced regeneration has been proven useful in many of the mental, emotional, and
physical challenges that almost all of us experience at one time or another in
our lives:

► Anxiety
► Insomnia and sleep disorders caused by stress, incessant thoughts, anxiety, chronic pain
anxiety, chronic pain

► For stress reduction, regeneration, relaxation, and recovery
► Migraines and tension headaches
► Attention deficit, problems with concentration and self-control
► Chronic pain
 Overcoming addictions
► Early forms of dementia or slowing of mental functions in older
adults

WHAT SENSATIONS ARE EXPERIENCED DURING THERAPY WITH AN AVE DEVICE?

► Typically, after 6 to 8 minutes from the start of a relaxation or sleep program, most people
report the onset of some or all of these states: 
 
1) Quieting or cessation of the incessant internal dialogue, distancing from anxious
thoughts and feelings. Attention is in the present.
 
2) Reduction of muscle tension – a feeling of groundedness and relaxation of the body.
The chewing muscles relax – the lower jaw is relaxed or the mouth may
open. The tongue relaxes and fills the oral cavity. Spontaneous
involuntary muscle contractions may be observed, similar to those that occur when falling asleep.


3) Vasodilation – widening of blood vessels – the palms and soles become pleasantly
warm.


4) Breathing becomes smooth, slowed, deep, and diaphragmatic. The heart rate slows down. 


7) Feelings of deep relaxation, satisfaction, calmness, and peacefulness
 
8 ) Visual images, various colors, and light patterns (shapes). 

Some users report that they observe colors and moving colored shapes during AVE – these are illusory light configurations, which are not created by the device. Due to peculiarities of the physiology of vision and the brain's reaction to light stimulation, optical illusions are created for some users. A typical optical illusion is a rotating
spiral, which appears during enhanced generation of alpha waves by the brain. During
the first 3-4 minutes of the stimulation, people see mostly red colors. At
the end of the session, there may be reports of seeing pink or violet light patterns.
There are also AVE users who do not report any optical illusions or
colors.
 
9) Sleep.

If a relaxation or sleep program is selected, quite a few users may
fall asleep or transition into the borderline state between sleep and wakefulness. If a program for arousing and energizing the nervous system is selected, most users remain
awake during the stimulation.
