Headaches - - Stress

This section of our web site is being presented with the assistance of a Sybian owner who is a board certified physician and is a Professor of Neurology at The New York Presbyterian Medical Center in New York City. The original statement given us by this doctor follows:

"The medical literature is replete with articles referencing the correlation between stress and chronic daily as well as migraine headaches. Likewise, the literature supports the fact that orgasm (by masturbation or partner stimulation) along with the release of oxytocin results in a significant reduction in the perceived as well as unperceived stress levels in both men and women. It is therefore totally logical that orgasm with its inherent quality of stress reduction serves to reduce the frequency of migraine and chronic daily headaches. With the Sybian's capability to allow a woman to have oftentimes multiple intense orgasms there is no doubt that substantial levels of oxytocin are being released into the blood circulation. As a direct result of this sequence of physical and biochemical factors an individual using the Sybian will experience a significant reduction in stress and hence a reduction in headache frequency".

Our Take On This

Since Sybian started shipping in 1987 we have pointed out in our manual that orgasms can help reduce stress and thus alleviate headaches. Over the years we have heard many stories to back up this statement. We know that every individual is different and that this will work better for some than others. Our point would be that you do not know if it could be of help unless you try it.

Over the years we have heard the extremes of using Sybian only occasionally when they felt stress coming on to individuals that came home every day, from a stressful job, and got out the Sybian when they arrived and used it for 15 or 20 minutes. We know from testimonials that it is helpful to many.

Following is a list of web sites the doctor recommends as informative reading. If anyone reading this feels that they have a question that they would like answered by the doctor please call us at Abco (800-253-6135) and give us an explanation of why you wish this conversation. If we agree, we will have the doctor call you for a brief conversation.
