ABSTRACT:
The endogenous enhancement of calcitonin in a human being has the ability to act as an analgesic and to treat osteoporosis, for example. Exogenous administration of calcitonin has disadvantages given its expense and the possible triggering of a hypersensitivity reaction and other side effects. The present invention provides the benefits of enhanced calcitonin through electrical stimulation that increases endogenous calcitonin levels without the need for exogenous administration of calcitonin.
