Don't know if the above is a typo, but the artical says

As a prescription device, I would think it would only be intended (legal) for the person it was prescribed for. Depending on how it works, settings might be different for different individuals. OTOH, goggle shows it's already being sold on Amazon, and at Costco in Canada.

Here are the customer reviews there:

Hey Doc. It is pretty much a TENS unit...I wonder how it differs from a standard TENS. Maybe the application of it is easier?? Here is the website: http://www.cefaly.ca

I do see where that press release does say that it is indicated for ages 18 and older. The Cefaly website is where I got the age 8 and older from...sorry for that confusion.

I googled it as soon as I saw it on the Nightly News last night and saw those Canadian sites (Amazon and Costco). Pretty good reviews I thought. Thanks foe linking them.

I am very curious about this....
