Abstract
|
|
|
Scrambler therapy is non pharmacological treatment that effective in neuropathic pain and many kinds of chronic pain. It uses electrical stimulation channels that replace the endogenous pain information with a ¡°nonpain¡± or ¡°normal?self¡± that travels through the same pain pathways to the brain. Several studies have shown that scrambler therapy reduces pain intensity and increases non?pain timeframe. Scrambler therapy can be tried on patients with incurable chronic pain syndrome, and lager randomized clinical trials would strengthen the conclusions from initial studies.
