ABSTRACT:
A method of affecting the central nervous system by pulse currents, wherein the region of the forehead and the neck under the mastoid processes is affected by a combination of pulse current and an additional d-c component. Current is initially applied to the left hemisphere whereupon the right hemisphere is affected simultaneously and separately at the moment complex resistance of the left hemisphere decreases. The mean current in the region of the right hemisphere is constantly maintained higher than the mean current in the left hemisphere.
