13. A headset for administering treatment for fibromyalgia to a person, comprising:
a frame configured to be worn on a head of the person;
a sensor;
a processor configured to generate a plurality of inputs including a left light source input, a right light source input, a left auditory source input, and a right auditory source input;
a left light source configured to produce, using the left light source input, a left visual stimuli pattern;
a right light source configured to produce, using the right light source input, a right visual stimuli pattern;
a left auditory source configured to produce, using the left auditory source input, a left auditory stimuli pattern; and
a right auditory source configured to produce, using the right auditory source input, a right auditory stimuli pattern,
wherein the processor is further configured to administer, via the headset, a therapeutically effective amount of the treatment to the person, wherein the plurality of inputs alternate between:
a first input including simultaneously generating the left light source input and the right auditory source input, and
a second input including simultaneously generating the right light source input and the left auditory source input,
wherein the first input and the second input include a first stimulus pattern having a first pulse frequency, a second stimulus pattern having a second pulse frequency, and a third stimulus pattern having a third pulse frequency;
wherein the processor is further configured to obtain a measurement of the person using the sensor, determine a state of the person from the measurement, modify the sensory stimuli according to the state of the person, the state of the person comprising a state of sleep or a level or a change in a level of calmness or a level of arousal; and
wherein the first pulse frequency is at or between 7.5 Hz and 8.5 Hz, the second pulse frequency is at or between 2.5 Hz and 3.5 Hz, and the third pulse frequency is at or between 0.5 Hz and 1.5 Hz.
