Cluster Headaches: What are they?

cluster headache
The Cluster headache is also known as erythroprosopalgia or Bing-Horton's neuralgia. It usually affects people in their 30's to 50's though not exclusively. The pains come in periods or time (clusters) whilst at other times, the patient feels no pain at all. These attacks affect the forehead, temple and behind the eye. In more severe cases, the eye and pupil become smaller. It also becomes red and watery, the nose becomes congested or runs and the forehead can sweat. The pain can last for 10 minutes or 2 hours.

Cluster Headaches: Does Stimplus Pain Relief work?

Stimplus pain relief Perhaps the best course for those prone to cluster headaches is to attempt avoidance. Red wine, nuts, cheese, seefood and chocolate have been known to bring on cluster headaches. Those who are in pain often use drugs such as methysergide, lithium carbonate, valporate or steroids but they can have unpleasant side effects. Most people do not feel happy with chemical substances entering the body or being the exclusive form of treatment.

The Stimplus is the latest in electro-acupuncture. This amazing device applies the same principle as the age old Chinese therapy of acupuncture, without piercing the skin.

The Stimplus finds acupoints, and then stimulates away pain electronically at the touch of a button, without needles.

Acupoints are detected with sound and light. 6 LED indicators on the top of the unit light up, one by one. The Stimplus also emits a low pitch sound which rises the closer you are to an acupoint.

Supplied with two lithium batteries, ear phone ( so you can use the stimplus without being overheard), carrying pouch, acupuncture charts and user manual.
