ABSTRACT:
A method of treating pain and treating ailments associated with imbalances in the somatic and/or sympathetic nervous system includes delivering electricity through a circuit in the body. The circuit includes at least four nerves leading from at least two of the patient's extremities to various nerve roots adjacent the spinal column. Electrical energy from an electrical interferential therapy device is delivered though electrodes on the extremities adjacent the nerve endings. Patients report a reduction in pain and an improvement in objective and subjective symptoms suggesting some effect on the autonomic, particularly the sympathetic nervous system, and the somatic nervous system.
