Sinus treatment device with enhanced tip

A method, comprising:

• detecting an impedance level through a user body between a conductive tip of a sinus treatment device and a return electrode of the sinus treatment device;
• initiating a treatment mode of the sinus treatment device when the impedance level through a user body drops below a threshold by passing a sinus treatment current level through a user body between the conductive tip and the return electrode;
• and
• gradually increasing a magnitude of the sinus treatment current during the treatment mode.

A method, comprising:

• detecting, during a detection mode, an impedance through a user's body between a conductive tip of a sinus treatment device and a return electrode of the sinus treatment device;
• initiating a treatment mode of the sinus treatment device responsive to the impedance;
• passing, during the treatment mode, a treatment current through the user's body between the conductive tip and the return electrode, the treatment current including a series of current spikes;
• and
• gradually increasing a magnitude of the current spikes during the treatment mode until the magnitude reaches a predetermined treatment level.

A microcurrent sinus treatment device, comprising;

• a circuit configured to deliver a sequence of voltage pulses carrying a therapeutic current;
• a therapeutic electrode operatively coupled to the circuit, the therapeutic electrode being configured to apply the sequence of voltage pulses to a user's skin surface adjacent to one of a plurality of nerve nodes subjacent to the user's skin surface, the therapeutic electrode being in electrical continuity with a therapeutic current output node of the circuit;
• and
• a hand holdable case configured to substantially contain portions of the circuit, the hand holdable case including:
• a forward end terminating in the therapeutic electrode;
• a return electrode comprising a portion of or disposed on a surface of the hand holdable case, the return electrode being in electrical continuity with a current return node of the circuit;
• a dielectric spacer disposed between the therapeutic electrode and the return electrode;
• and
• a rearward portion of the hand holdable case terminating at an end distal to the therapeutic electrode tip;
• wherein the dielectric spacer and the return electrode form a tapered surface narrowing toward the therapeutic electrode from a point of maximum girth disposed between the forward end and the rearward portion of the hand holdable case.
