Electroanalgesia achieves a variety of therapeutic actions, including reduced edema, inflammation, analgesia, and facilitation of metabolism in the neuropathic extremity. Other Electroanalgesia Therapy benefits include:
Electroanalgesia Therapy is accomplished by placing specially designed conductive sock or hand garment electrodes over the treatment area. Like the TENS unit in delivering stimulation, Electroanalgesic Therapy also uses high electrical energy 8,300 to 10,000 pulses per second (frequencies) and a high dosage of energy (as high as 100Ma) to block pain. Rather than stimulate the nerves like a TENS unit, the higher frequency, and dosage of energy can reduce the ability of the affected nerves to transmit pain signals and, at the same time, promote healing by employing depolarization effects on the nerve cells.
