  • A Bielefeld University and University of Zanjan study has concluded that electrical brain stimulation can ease the pain of the broken hearted.  Here's what we know:
  • We've all been there! The love of our life unceremoniously tells us to take a hike.  Years later it still stings. Well, suffer no more!
  • Research shows wearing a $500 headset that electroshocks your brain for a few minutes a day could ease the depression and misery that comes with rejection
  • 36 volunteers with Love Trauma Syndrome (LTS) were treated: 24 with the headset on and 12 with the headset off
  • The 24 LTSer's with the headsets on experienced reduced LTS symptoms, while the 12 with it off had no change
  • Bottomline:  get back out there with your heart on a silver platter and your headset at the ready ...neuroscience has your back!!!
