NITESGON (Occipital Nerve + Sound Stimulation)
Non-invasive electrical stimulation of the greater occipital nerve paired with an attentionally-demanding auditory discrimination task
Evidence level
No primary evidence catalogued yet
How it works
NITESGON pairs electrical stimulation of the greater occipital nerve (a somatosensory pathway from the neck) with active auditory frequency-discrimination training, aiming to retrain hyperactive auditory circuits through combined somatosensory and auditory input, the same broad bimodal concept as other DCN-targeted devices, tested independently by a different research group (Trinity College Dublin).
This describes the treatment concept as reported in the cited research: a scientific mechanism, not a guarantee of clinical availability.
