The analgesic effect of the net transcutaneous application to the brain of constant and impulse currents (the frequency of rectangular impulses was 77 Hz, the duration of an impulse, 3.5 ms) in a 2-5:1 ratio was investigated. An analgesic effect was observed in both healthy subjects and in patients with spondylogenic pain. The duration of analgesic effect following a 30-minute therapeutic session was 6-10 hours. A 5-7 session course was associated with a gradual increase and stabilization of the analgesic effect. The procedure was attended by no complications.
