Summary

The objective of this study is to compare the hypoalgesic effects of TENS, Interferential current and Aussie current in pressure pain threshold and sensory discomfort in healthy subjects.

Conditions

  • Healthy

Interventions

DEVICE

Interferential current

Interferential current will be applied during 30 minutes to volunteer's forearm at a strong but comfortable intensity. Carrier frequency will be set at 4 kilohertz (kHz) and modulated frequency will be set at 100 Hz.

DEVICE

Aussie Current

Aussie current will be applied during 30 minutes to volunteer's forearm at a strong but comfortable intensity. Carrier frequency will be set at 4 kHz and modulated frequency will be set at 100 Hz.

DEVICE

TENS

TENS will be applied during 30 minutes to volunteer's forearm at a strong but comfortable intensity. Pulse duration will be set at 125 microseconds and frequency will be set at 100 Hz.
