description

Decrease in cervical pain using microcurrents Abstract We aim to verify the effectiveness of microcurrents in pain, specifically in cervical pain. A total of 20 patients with acute or chronic neck pain have been treated in the out- patient clinic with microcurrent technology exclusively. Pain assessment was performed using the visual analogue scale (VAS) for self-assessment before and after the full treatment. The mean VAS before treatment was 65.45 and the average post-treatment was 21.90. Mean treat- ment duration was 3.5 weeks. The results of this study are consistent with the studies published
