Migraine Relief

What Migraine Clients Say

"Since beginning treatment with the Enermed device in early December, I have had a great improvement in my headaches and a decrease in the amount of additional medications needed to control my migraines.  The device, although not removing the migraine condition completely, has significantly reduced the aura, duration, pain level and frequency of the migraines.”
J.W. Michigan

“It’s amazing to me the impact your Enermed has had on my life! .……migraine headaches are no longer a common occurrence”
I.B. WA

“Over the last 18 years I have suffered from migraine headaches that have often put both my professional life as well as my personal life in a state of uncertainty…… Previously it was not uncommon for me to lose several days per month.  Now after treatment I have not lost a single day due to migraine and have not suffered any migraine headaches even though on occasion I have had an aura they did not develop into a headache……..This treatment is the best thing that has happened to migraine sufferers ever.”
R.S. Alberta

"I started having migraines about 6 years ago, and I noticed foods triggered the migraines, such as Monosodium Glutamate, chocolate, aged cheese..., a non food trigger was fasting...and I also had extreme sensitivity to fluorescent light and computer screens... ...I searched out an article concerning the use of pulsed magnetic fields for the treatment of migraines. I went to Canada to get the Enermed scan and also the Enermed treatment in December 1995.
...I have been doing great in the following areas:
1) Migraines almost non-existent (although I will still get some headaches);
2) I can tolerate artificial lights and electronic equipment much better;
3) I have much less fatigue;
4) and my vision is clearer."
Dr.T.R. WA.

" ...no more loss of vision, reduced pain and length of headache, no more nausea...."
T.P. Ontario

Brief Summary of EnerMed Migraine Research

The first systematic study of the effects of this pulsed electromagnetic frequency generator was an uncontrolled outcome study of 54 chronic migraine patients using an early prototype of the Enermed used today. (1)  Headache diaries indicated that migraine frequency dropped from an average of 1.2 to 0.6 per week for a 50% reduction in occurrence.  A significant decrease in severity and duration of headaches was also reported.

In 1994 a one-page questionnaire was sent to patients who had purchased an early version of the Enermed device. (2) Of the 262 migraine sufferers responding, 94% (246 subjects) reported severe pre-treatment symptoms (7-10 based on a scale of 1-10 with 1 being perfectly well and 10 being extremely bad).  After using the device only 21% (55 subjects) reported severe symptoms.  63% of subjects reported post treatment ratings in the 1 to 4 range typically reflecting improvements of five points on the ten-point scale.

In a follow up patient survey conducted in 1999 migraine patients reported the following effects of treatment based on a scale 0-10 where 0 = “Not at all effective and 10 = “extremely effective.”

Extremely effective- 25%;  Very effective- 25%;

Moderately Effective- 20%;  Mildly Effective- 5%;

Not At All Effective- 25%   

While some may regard the above studies to be “unscientific” they provided the impetus for The United States National Institutes of Health to provide funding for a double-blind, placebo-controlled trial to study the effect of the Enermed device on symptoms of Migraine.

For this study(3) 41 subjects with a clinical diagnosis of migraine were recruited.  Random selection allocated 21 subjects to the active treatment group and 20 to the control group.  Subjects and investigators remained blinded to treatment conditions throughout the study.   Study results showed a 67% decrease in the number of migraines reported by the active treatment group while the control group numbers were unchanged.
