Last night I watched the News.. chnl 7 here EST... and saw
a report of a Dr.. treating a patients of psychiatric problems
with magnetic fields pulsed to the brain! First time I ever
saw this.. and authorized by AMA.. yet! The pulsing unit
consisted of two coils about 4 " dia side by side in one
plastic unit. Four leads came off it to a machine.. and when
pulsed.. you could hear it vibrate and click. I would say less
that 100Hz was the frequency.. and also was pulsed or gated.
This unit was held to the head manually.. and said to be felt
by the patient as vibrations. Hey.. it did physically vibrate!
This was used for patients with depression, and palsy.. and
is said to awaken the brain cells.. by stimulation. The outcome
was sort of temporary.. but did seem to work.. after X amount
of treatments. Was very interesting ... but only a short clip
in the news. Kind of reminds me of Priore Device.. Magnetic
Pulsar which is sort of famous and clamed to cure aliments.
