Summary

This randomized controlled double-blinded pilot trial was performed in the Medical University of Vienna, Department of Special Anesthesia and Pain Medicine between 2015 and 2018. Aim of the study was to assess the effect of regular electrotherapy applied on the spinal cord of patients with chronic non-specific neck pain and/or low-back pain.
