ABSTRACT:
A skin-contact type medical treatment apparatus has a first conductive member having a contact surface made of single metal or alloy and a second conductive member having a contact surface made of semiconductor. The standard single-electrode potential of the semiconductor constituting the contact surface of the second conductive member is lower than a standard single-electrode potential of the metal constituting the contact surface of the first conductive member. The apparatus further includes a parallel circuit of a diode and a capacitor electrically connected to the first and second conductive members. The apparatus is used by making both the contact surfaces of the first and second conductive members in contact with skin.
