Summary

The aim of this study was to determine the effects of 4 Hz and 110 Hz transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation on the sympathetic nervous system via measuring the sympathetic skin response (SSR) and skin temperature.

Conditions

  • Effects of TENS on Sympathetic Skin Response

Interventions

DEVICE

transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation

All subjects participated, randomly, in a 4 Hz TENS session, a 110 Hz TENS session, and a control (off-TENS) session. Each session consisted of a 20- minute stimulation period and a 10-minute follow up period.
