Electrosleep (ES), in short, is the name for tPCS [transcranial pulsed current stimulation] methods by which the brain was stimulated in order to induce a sleep-like state in the subject. ... it was reasoned that ES does not actually induce sleep, rather it is an indirect side effect of the relaxing effects of stimulation. Therefore, the term "electrosleep" was changed to "cranial electrostimulation therapy." 2, record 1, English, - cranial%20electrotherapy%20stimulation
