Abstract

Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation is a non-medicated therapy with no side effects, compatible with other treatments and able to be used for an unlimited time. It consists in emitting painless electrical pulses around the nerves or muscles, through electrodes placed on the skin and connected to an easy-to-use generator or stimulator.
