2. Pulsed electromagnetic field therapy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulsed_electromagnetic...

   Pulsed electromagnetic field therapy (PEMFT, or PEMF therapy), also known as low field magnetic stimulation (LFMS) is the use of electromagnetic fields in an attempt to heal non-union fractures and depression. [1] By 2007 the FDA had cleared several such stimulation devices. [2]

3. Transcranial magnetic stimulation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transcranial_magnetic...

   Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a noninvasive neurotherapy, a form of brain stimulation in which a changing magnetic field is used to induce an electric current at a specific area of the brain through electromagnetic induction. An electric pulse generator, or stimulator, is connected to a magnetic coil connected to the scalp. The ...

4. Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transcutaneous_electrical...

   A transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS or TNS) is a device that produces mild electric current to stimulate the nerves for therapeutic purposes.TENS, by definition, covers the complete range of transcutaneously applied currents used for nerve excitation, but the term is often used with a more restrictive intent, namely, to describe the kind of pulses produced by portable ...

5. Neurostimulation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neurostimulation

   Neurostimulation is the purposeful modulation of the nervous system's activity using invasive (e.g. microelectrodes) or non-invasive means (e.g. transcranial magnetic stimulation, transcranial electric stimulation such as tDCS or tACS).

6. Electrical muscle stimulation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_muscle_stimulation

   Athlete recovering with four-channel, electrical muscle stimulation machine attached through self-adhesive pads to her hamstrings. Electrical muscle stimulation can be used as a training, [7] [8] [9] therapeutic, [10] [11] or cosmetic tool.

7. Electrotherapy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrotherapy

   The term has also been applied specifically to the use of electric current to speed up wound healing. The use of electromagnetic stimulation or EMS is also very wide for dealing with muscular pain. [4] Additionally, the term "electrotherapy" or "electromagnetic therapy" has also been applied to a range of alternative medical devices and ...
