The invention relates to an electrical stimulation device (1) having a stimulator (2), containing a generator (3) for generating electrical stimulation pulses having specific stimulation parameters, a voltage supply (4) for supplying the generator (3) with electrical energy and a stimulator housing (13), and having at least two needle electrodes (5) for piercing the surface of the skin of an area to be stimulated, which needle electrodes (5) are connected to the stimulator (2) via a line (7), wherein the stimulator (2) can be releasably connected to a fastening element (14) for fastening the stimulator (2) to the surface of the skin. In order to fasten the stimulator (2) to the surface of the skin of a patient in an easier and better manner, the fastening element (14) has a clip (15) for releasably receiving the stimulator housing (13) and a support element (16) for supporting and fastening the stimulator (2) to the surface of the skin.
