Zap your headache!

Posted by O'Reilly on

There is a remote-control device that lets people zap their migraine headaches away

People who suffer from migraines or cluster headaches get an implant inserted into a group of nerves behind the nasal passages and eye sockets. They are also given a remote-control. 

When patients feel headaches coming on, they simply hold the remote to their cheek that sends a radio signal to the implanted device.

That triggers a slight electrical charge to stimulate nerve cells that helps get rid of the headache.
