Hello everyone,
I came across this interesting study about Cervical Neuro-Muscular Syndrome (CNMS) and CFS done in Japan in 2012 where there were some remarkably good results:

It shows a picture of "low frequency therapy", looks like eletriclal stimulation of the neck muscles. So that gave me the idea to look up electric neck massagers online (cheaper than flying to Japan for treatment!). This looks like a decent one, it appears similar in effect to what is used in the study.

I'm considering buying one and giving it a go. I had a huge improvement from around 20% energy to 70% a year ago with an aruvedic doctor who gave me a series of neck massages, and he said it was due to increasing blood flow to the brain. Unfortunately they stopped working when I caught colds in the winter and the energy went way back down again. But maybe daily stimulation from one of these massagers would do the trick?
Any experiences?
