ABSTRACT:
An electrotherapy device and process for treatment of musculoskeletal disorders. The device comprises an antenna formed of a series of spaced conductive strips, a high voltage, high frequency, low power source connected to the antenna, and dielectric shielding for preventing arcing from the device during treatment of a disorder. In the treatment process, a high voltage, high frequency, pulsed source is provided to produce a broad band output corona discharge from the antenna having an electrostatic field extending in frequency from 0 Hz to over 1 GHz and constantly changing randomly in amplitude and frequency. The excited antenna is applied to a body with the corona discharge enveloping a region experiencing a musculoskeletal disorder.
