Summary

HYPTHOTHESIS:

The researchers hypothesize that application of active magnetic therapy vs. sham utilized while individuals sleep can reduce neuropathic pain in the spine and improve the quality of sleep. The null hypothesis is that treatment of subjects with spine pain with exposure to permanent/static magnetic fields has no measurable effect on neuropathic pain scores or quality of sleep scores.
