The

Alpha-Stim M

for

Anxiety, Insomnia, Depression,

and

Pain

The Alpha-Stim M is a cranial electrotherapy stimulation (CES) and microcurrent electrical therapy (MET) medical device that uses low-level electrical current to safely and effectively treat anxiety, insomnia, depression, and pain. Alpha-Stim treatments are cumulative; however, most patients show some improvement after their first treatment. Alpha-Stim can be used as a stand-alone treatment or as an adjunct with other modalities and pharmaceuticals. Alpha-Stim has a unique and patented waveform that has been proven safe and effective in numerous double-blind studies. The Alpha-Stim, FDA-cleared for the treatment of anxiety, insomnia, depression, and pain, is available for your patients now.

Where are your Clinical Trials?

It has proven to be difficult, if not impossible, to proceed to full-scale randomized controlled trials (RCTs) for most of the natural methods that cannot be patented or otherwise monopolized. 

A Renewed Focus on Self-Help for Healing

As the producer of The Moss Report, the year leading up to the Covid-19 pandemic was filled with anticipation and excitement. We had invested years of hard work and significant resources into two major projects: our feature film, Immunotherapy: The Battle Within, and...

  • PLMI 14th Annual Thought Leaders Consortium

    Loews Coronado Bay Resort 4000 Coronado Bay Rd, Coronado, CA, United States

    The 14th Annual Thought Leaders Consortium marks the culminating chapter of PLMI’s three-year exploration into the biology of immuno-metabolism, epigenetic regulation, and human longevity. Building on the 2024 and 2025 Consortia—which reframed chronic disease through immune-metabolic dysfunction and diet- and environment-driven epigenetic remodeling—this year’s gathering places mitochondria at the center of health, disease, and aging. Once viewed simply as the cell’s energy producers, mitochondria are now recognized as dynamic, epigenetically responsive organelles that integrate nutrition, environmental exposures, immune activation, stress signaling, physical activity, and circadian inputs into a unified metabolic-immune system. Disruption of mitochondrial function is increasingly implicated in fatigue syndromes, chronic pain, immune dysregulation, neurodegeneration, infertility, metabolic disease, accelerated aging, and diminished stress resilience. This advanced, science-driven Consortium convenes world-leading experts to explore mitochondrial biology as the cornerstone of immuno-metabolic resilience. Attendees will gain cutting-edge insights into mitochondrial signaling, mito-nuclear communication, and metabolic flexibility—alongside clinically actionable frameworks for restoring cellular vitality, reversing biological aging trajectories, and extending healthspan. Through deep scientific exploration and translational clinical strategy, the 2026 Thought Leaders Consortium will equip practitioners and researchers with the knowledge needed to redefine assessment, intervention, and long-term outcomes in personalized and lifestyle medicine.

  • Practical Clinical Skills in Neurotransmitter Optimization: Clinical Herbalism for Mood, Cognition & Aging

    Virtual Event

    Join us for the second part of this two-part virtual symposium! Mental health and neurocognitive disorders remain among the most prevalent and inadequately addressed challenges in modern clinical practice.  This intensive, expert-led symposium provides a comprehensive, clinically grounded framework for integrating herbal and nutraceutical strategies into mental health care. Attendees gain a working understanding of how targeted herbal interventions modulate key neurotransmitter systems, including serotonin, dopamine, GABA, and cortisol, and how to apply these therapies strategically, whether as adjuncts to pharmaceuticals or as standalone options. Clinical applications span a wide spectrum, from anxiety and depression to Parkinson’s-related motor symptoms and age-associated cognitive decline, with a strong emphasis on practical implementation and patient-specific protocol design.
