ABSTRACT:
Apparatus and methodology for treating the symptoms of multiple sclerosis employs a transcutaneous electronic wave to suppress perceived pain, increase strength, improve the perception of sensation, reduce spasticity associated with the disease, and create a general feeling of improved well being in the patient. A positive contact electrode is placed on the center of the frontalis muscle, and a negative electrode located at the occiput of the head. Additional negative contacts are placed at the base of the spine, on the medial malleolus of each affected leg and the web space of each affected hand. An electronic current wave comprising relatively high frequency pulses with a low frequency amplitude modulation is then applied between the first to the second electrodes.
