Abstract
Methods and devices for treating and managing addiction are disclosed where an apparatus for mitigating addictive behavior may generally comprise at least two electrodes for positioning in proximity to an ulnar nerve of a body of a subject and one or more sensors configured to detect physiologic parameters which correlate to one or more symptoms indicative of addictive behavior of the subject. A pulse generator may be programmed to receive a sensor output based on the detected physiologic parameters and to apply a treatment stimulation to the ulnar nerve through a skin surface of the subject such that the addictive behavior of the subject is reduced.
