FDA-Cleared Anxiety Treatment
The Fisher Wallace Stimulator® is a wearable neurostimulation device that is cleared by the FDA to treat anxiety, as well as the common co-symptoms of depression and insomnia. The device works by stimulating serotonin production, alpha wave production and the brain's default mode network while lowering cortisol. Patients use the device at home, once or twice a day for 20 minutes. The majority of patients in clinical trials and practice experience durable symptom relief within the first week of use. Patients may return their device for a refund within 30 days of receipt.
The device is effective in treating the following symptoms of anxiety and depression:
- Decreased energy and fatigue
- Oversleeping or insomnia
- Persistent sadness
- Feelings of hopelessness
- Feelings of worthlessness and/or helplessness
- Loss of interest in activities and hobbies, including sex
- Restlessness and irritability
- Chronic and unsubstantiated worry
- Repeated, random panic attacks
These symptoms are commonly associated with Major Depressive Disorder, Bipolar Disorder, Persistent Depressive Disorder, and Generalized Anxiety Disorder.

Doctor & Patient Testimonials
I have had great success using the device to treat severe, chronic insomnia in patients who are resistant to pharmacotherapy. Also, patients who seek a drug-free alternative to treat insomnia have used the Fisher Wallace Stimulator to reduce or eliminate their dependence on prescription drugs. *
