Summary

This study evaluates the efficacy of home-based high tone external muscle stimulation (HTEMS) compared to transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) in chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN). One half of the participants will receive TENS therapy, the other half will receive High tone external muscle Stimulation. It is expected that HTEMS improves symptoms of CIPN.
