Interventions

PROCEDURE

Pulsed Electromagnetic Field therapy (PEMF)

PEMF Therapy based on Biological Electromagnetic (BEM) microbial wave technology provides micro-magnetic emissions to the center of the palm (Laogong acupoint). While participating in the study, the subjects will undertake 2 sessions of therapy every day (1 session in the morning and evening). Each session will last for 16-min (8-min for left and 8-min for right hand).

PROCEDURE

Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Sham therapy

PEMF therapy will be administered however it will not produce micro-magnetic emissions. The therapy will be used on the center of the palm (Laogong acupoint) of each hand. While participating in the study, the subjects will undertake 2 sessions of therapy every day (1 session in the morning and evening). Each session will last for 16-min (8-min for left and 8-min for right hand).
