Zusammenfassung:A method of treating a neurological condition in a patient, the method including the step of applying an electrical stimulation from conductors to the patient's head at a stimulation application site. In some embodiments, the electrical stimulation includes a composite electrical signal further comprising at least one signal form configured to provide long-term treatment of the neurological condition and at least one signal form configured to provide analgesia for short-term pain relief. The invention also provides an electrical stimulation apparatus having an electrical signal generator adapted to provide an electrical signal form configured to provide long-term treatment of a neurological condition and to provide an electrical signal form configured to provide analgesia for short-term pain relief.
