Electricity has been used to treat pain for over 100 years. Early proponents of
electricity were labelled as charlatans, but recent scientific studies have proven
that electricity can reduce both acute and chronic pain.
Electrotherapy is the treatment of certain human ailments via the application of
electrical currents to the body.
The fact that electrical currents can effect human physiology is well
known. The earliest observations of this date back to the pioneering work of Galvani,
Volta, and others, and forms the basis for the field of electro physiology.
