How Does NESA® Therapy Work?
NESA® therapy is a gentle, non-invasive treatment designed to restore balance to your nervous system using the power of electrotherapy, a method backed by over 150 years of clinical research.
During a session, you’ll relax comfortably while a trained therapist places special electrodes on your hands and feet. These electrodes deliver microcurrents—tiny electrical pulses that mimic your body’s natural electrical signals. These pulses help regulate your nervous system, calming it and promoting balance.
When chronic stress, anxiety, or overstimulation throw off this balance, it can lead to a variety of health issues. NESA® therapy works by gently stimulating the nervous system, helping your body shift from a state of high alert to a calmer, more restorative mode.
By enhancing nervous system function, NESA® therapy can improve sleep quality, boost energy, and support overall well-being.

Frequently Asked Questions
To ensure the effectiveness of the treatment and to adapt to the individual needs of each patient, sessions are scheduled on a personalised basis.
Generally, it is recommended to start with a cycle of 10 sessions, distributed twice a week for a period of 4 to 5 weeks. This frequency allows for an optimal approach to chronic pathologies.
How is continuation of treatment decided after the first 10 sessions?
After completing the first course of treatment, a detailed reassessment is carried out to measure progress.
Depending on the results and the goals achieved, it may be decided to continue with the treatment, or to space the sessions further apart, either every two weeks or once a month.
As with any therapy, there is no universal solution with 100% effectiveness for all conditions. However, when clear guidelines are established based on sound clinical reasoning, accurate diagnosis, patient proactivity, detailed medical history, and scientifically validated assessments, NESA® Non-Invasive Neuromodulation demonstrates a high success rate. This success is observed in the treatment of conditions such as neuropathic pain, improvement of sleep quality, reduction of stress and anxiety, reduction of fatigue, and management of overactive bladder, provided that an adequate duration of treatment and number of sessions is adhered to, with a minimum of 10 sessions recommended.

Why is it not possible to use a mobile phone during treatment?
During therapeutic sessions, particularly those that involve microcurrents, it is crucial to minimize potential interferences that could impact the effectiveness of the treatment. Scientific studies indicate that electromagnetic waves emitted by mobile devices can disrupt critical medical equipment, including those used to record or monitor vital functions like electrocardiograms (Fernández-Chimeno & Silva, 2010; Periyasamy & Dhanasekaran, 2015). Although specific research on interference from mobile phones in microcurrent therapies is limited, it is prudent to avoid using mobile phones during sessions to ensure the highest treatment efficacy.
In addition, creating a relaxing environment is essential for enhancing therapeutic effects. Disconnecting from electronic devices, including mobile phones, helps foster such an environment, providing a calmer and more beneficial experience for the patient. Engaging in non-digital activities such as reading a book is recommended during this time.

Why do we ask you to remove as much metal as possible during treatment?
During Applied Superficial Neuromodulation (NESA®) sessions, the correct transmission of low-frequency microcurrents through the skin is crucial. Metals in direct contact with the skin can alter electrical impedance, which is vital for the effectiveness of the treatment. Metals can change the skin’s electrical conductivity, distorting the signals emitted by the device and thereby reducing treatment efficacy.
To ensure effective microcurrent therapy, it is recommended to remove any jewelry or metallic devices in direct contact with the skin. This precaution allows for optimal transmission of the microcurrents, facilitating the desired therapeutic effects without interference. However, if some metallic items cannot be removed, it is not necessarily decisive for the overall success of the therapy.

Sleep is essential for recovery, yet over 66% of people suffer from sleep problems that affect their quality of life (WHO). Good sleep is critical for physical healing, mental well-being, and overall health.
Research shows sleep helps clear harmful proteins linked to Alzheimer’s (Zhao et al., 2022) and improves pain perception and recovery after surgery (Butris et al., 2023). Lack of sleep can increase heart attack risk, slow recovery, and lead to a greater need for intensive care in hospitalized patients (Zhang et al., 2020).
NESA® Technology for Better Sleep and Recovery
NESA® technology helps improve sleep by targeting the autonomic nervous system. Through neuromodulation, it enhances the pathways involved in sleep’s restorative functions, supporting faster recovery and overall health.
What is the research for chronic fatigue or fibromyalgia?
Chronic pain affects 20% of the global population (WHO), with neuropathic pain and conditions like fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue being particularly challenging. These conditions are often linked to dysfunctions in the autonomic nervous system, complicating treatment.
NESA® Technology for Chronic Pain
NESA® technology offers a neuromodulation solution that targets the autonomic nervous system and reorganizes bioelectrical nerve tissue to treat chronic and neuropathic pain. It has shown promise in improving conditions like fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue, helping to reduce pain and improve quality of life.
Recent studies, including one by Arslan and Çevik (2022), emphasize the role of the sympathetic nervous system in chronic pain, supporting the effectiveness of NESA® in modulating this system for better pain management. Research on fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue has also demonstrated NESA®’s potential to alleviate symptoms and promote recovery.
What is the research for bladder conditions?
Overactive bladder (OAB), affecting 6% of the global population (WHO), causes urinary urgency, frequency, and incontinence due to dysfunctions in the autonomic nervous system, which controls bladder function.
NESA® for Overactive Bladder
NESA® medical technology uses neuromodulation to regulate the autonomic nervous system, improving bladder control. Studies, such as those by Contreras et al. (2023), have shown that NESA® significantly reduces urinary incontinence, especially in patients with multiple sclerosis. Additional research by Smith et al. (2023) and Conde et al. (2023) supports the role of autonomic dysfunction in OAB and highlights the effectiveness of NESA® in treating this condition.
What is the research for facial pain or trigeminal neuralgia?
Trigeminal Neuralgia and Facial Pain Causes
Trigeminal neuralgia (TN) is a severe, sharp facial pain caused by irritation or damage to the trigeminal nerve, which carries sensation from the face. The pain can be triggered by simple activities like talking, chewing, or touching the face.
Causes of Trigeminal Neuralgia:
Nerve Compression: Often caused by blood vessels pressing on the trigeminal nerve, damaging its protective coating and causing pain signals.
Multiple Sclerosis (MS): MS can damage the nerve’s myelin sheath, leading to abnormal pain signals.
Tumors: In rare cases, a tumor or lesion can press on the nerve.
Aging: As people age, blood vessels may compress the nerve, leading to pain.
Other Causes of Facial Pain:
TMJ Disorder: Jaw joint problems can cause facial pain, often when chewing or speaking.
Sinusitis: Inflammation of the sinuses can cause pain in the forehead, cheeks, and nose.
Dental Issues: Tooth infections or abscesses can cause localized facial pain.
Post-Herpetic Neuralgia: Pain from shingles affecting the trigeminal nerve.
Cluster Headaches: Intense headaches that cause severe facial pain, typically around one eye.
Managing Pain:
Treatment for trigeminal neuralgia may include medications, nerve blocks, or surgery. For other facial pain, addressing the underlying issue—such as dental problems, sinus infections, or TMJ—can help. Neuromodulation therapies like NESA® may also help relieve chronic facial pain by regulating nerve activity.
What is the research for chronic pain conditons?
Chronic pain affects around 20% of the global population, with neuropathic pain being especially challenging to manage. This type of pain often involves dysfunction in the autonomic nervous system (ANS), which controls involuntary body functions like heart rate and pain response. When the ANS is out of balance, it can worsen pain and make it harder to treat.
NESA® Technology and Pain Relief
NESA® technology offers a potential solution by using neuromodulation to help manage chronic pain. It targets the autonomic nervous system to restore balance, reducing pain signals and promoting healing. This approach focuses on rebalancing nerve activity, which may help reduce both corticalized and neuropathic pain.
Recent studies, including one by Arslan and Çevik (2022), highlight the role of the sympathetic nervous system in chronic pain. They suggest that overactivity in this system can make pain worse, so modulating it could be key to effective treatment. NESA® aims to correct this imbalance, potentially offering relief for people with chronic and neuropathic pain.
In short, NESA® technology represents an innovative way to address chronic pain by targeting the underlying neural imbalances, providing a promising treatment for those suffering from difficult-to-treat pain conditions.
What is the research for jaw pain or tension?
Teeth grinding (bruxism) is often linked to an overactive sympathetic nervous system, which is triggered by chronic stress and anxiety. This keeps the body in a heightened “fight or flight” state, leading to jaw muscle tension and involuntary grinding.
NESA® for Bruxism and Stress
NESA® therapy helps address stress, anxiety, and sleep issues by using low-frequency microcurrents to rebalance the nervous system. This promotes a calmer, more relaxed state by activating the “rest and digest” response, which can reduce jaw pain, improve sleep, and relieve the symptoms of bruxism.
What is the research for anxiety, burnout conditions?
Anxiety and stress are common issues affecting many people worldwide. Factors like social environment, poor nutrition, and lack of sleep can worsen these conditions, leading to higher cortisol levels and changes in brain wave patterns, both signs of stress. The WHO reports that 70% of people experience stress at some point, and 4% suffer from chronic anxiety. During the COVID-19 pandemic, 31.9% of people experienced anxiety, and 29.6% reported increased stress (Salari et al., 2020).
NESA® Technology for Stress and Anxiety
NESA® technology offers a new approach to managing stress and anxiety through neuromodulation. It helps balance the nervous system, reducing stress markers like high cortisol levels and irregular brain waves. Measuring cortisol and heart rate variability can track progress and show improvements in stress and anxiety levels.
