Abstract: Sensitivity of sensory nerves of a body portion is increased by activating at least one computer processor to iteratively simultaneously apply sets of electrical stimulation pulses to two locations upon a surface of the body portion; receive an input indicative of whether the subject sensed the sets of electrical stimulation pulses as having been applied to a single location or more than one location; in response to the input, designate another set of two locations upon the surface of the body portion at which to simultaneously apply sets of electrical stimulation pulses, the two locations being separated from each other by a distance that is different from the initial distance; and simultaneously apply sets of electrical stimulation pulses to the other set of at least two locations upon the surface of the body portion. Other configurations are also described.

Abstract: An apparatus is described comprising electrodes (22) configured to be placed upon a portion of a body of a subject, and a user interface device (26). A computer processor (24) applies a neuromodulation treatment to the subject, by driving electrical pulses into the portion of the subject's body via the electrodes, and generates an output on the user interface device that indicates to the subject a physiological effect that the neuromodulation treatment has upon the subject's body.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described including a system for electrostimulation. The system includes a patch (22), including a plurality of electrodes (24a, 24b), and a mobile device (28). A processor (30) of the mobile device is configured to receive an input from a subject (20) that indicates that the subject is experiencing a headache, and, in response to the input, while the patch is coupled to the subject, wirelessly communicate a control signal that causes the electrodes to stimulate the subject. Other embodiments are also described.

Abstract: Apparatus and methods are described for increasing sensitivity of sensory nerves of a portion of a subject's body. A plurality of electrodes (22) are placed at respective locations upon a surface of the body portion. A computer processor (24) applies sets of electrical stimulation pulses to the respective locations upon the surface, via the electrodes. The computer processor receives respective inputs from the subject, via a user interface (26), each of the inputs corresponding to a respective one of the sets of electrical stimulation pulses, and being indicative of a location at which the subject sensed the set of electrical stimulation pulse as having been applied. In response to the inputs from the subject, the computer processor modulates parameters of the sets of electrical stimulation pulses that are applied to respective locations upon the surface of the body portion. Other applications are also described.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein include a controller (22). The controller includes at least one interface (62) that couples the controller to stimulation circuitry (24), which includes a pair of electrodes (26a, 26b), and to measuring circuitry, and further includes controller circuitry (64). While the electrodes are coupled to skin (60) of a subject, the controller circuitry, via the interface, drives the stimulation circuitry to (i) pass a plurality of stimulating pulses (32) between the electrodes, and (ii) pass one or more reference pulses (34) between the electrodes, the reference pulses being different from each of the stimulating pulses. The controller receives, from the measuring circuitry, an impedance between the electrodes that is measured using the reference pulses. In response to the impedance measured using the reference pulses, but not in response to any impedance measured using the stimulating pulses, the controller circuitry controls the stimulation procedure. Other embodiments are also described.

Abstract: A method is provided that includes coupling a plurality of electrodes to skin of a subject caudally to a neck of the subject, such that the electrodes are spread over a plurality of dermatomes. Using a computer processor, in response to the subject experiencing a headache, without using any element that is implanted in the subject, and without using any element that penetrates skin of the subject, the headache is treated by transcutaneously stimulating the subject, by applying an electrical current to the skin, via the electrodes. Other embodiments are also described.
