E-stim on the head - NO!

Im very new to electro but im curious can it be used on the head like ect therapy in hospitals and if it can how is the safeest way to do it?

I use e-stim (TENS, which they all are) a great deal.

It's a lot different than ECT which are really powerful (and now thought damaging) shocks,

I would not contemplate using it above the nape of the neck - and even then its unlikely to be as pleasurable (if at all) as what one might call the pleasure centres. Indeed, most practitioners say 'not above the waist'. Most TENS instruction manuals though will have a body map with stimulation points as far up as the neck - but will also instruct 'not across the heart', i.e. breast to breast - or with a pacemaker fitted - wouldn't want to upset one of those either!

The brain's only functioning method is by electrical signals from one part to another. OK, they're not nerves (as in the acronym TENS - Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) - they are neurons - but I wouldn't think it would do them any good!

ABSOLUTELY DO NOT DO THIS. THERE IS NO SAFE WAY TO DO IT.

E-stim devices for sex are similar to TENS units, but they have MUCH higher output. Plus, TENS devices are sold as medical devices and have definite criteria for their operation and safety, which e-stim devices clearly do not have. While I love my ET-212B on the ass and pussy, I would never consider using it across any part of my head

Using an e-stim on the head can be very dangerous.

Using a TENS device, like those used for pain relief is alright, but even those should not be used across the skull where the brain could be affected. There are tens devices designed for use on the neck to treat neck pain, but I would not use it across the forehead or across any part of the skull.

What would you do if it you caused a seizure or worse?

Thanks switchable appericate the advice

Sounds like that is getting pretty close to Electro-Shock Therapy. You do not want to go there.

DON'T BE STUPID! DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT IT!

Sorry but I meant to yell to get my point across :'(

Brrrrrr!!! What a dangerous idea! Our brains are directed by electric impulses, even too much time spent in the Sun can kill! Then with electrodes on, oh my...
