Utilization of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation in managing craniofacial pain.
This article describes a protocol for clinical application of variable parameter transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) for the management of craniofacial pain. The method described is easily applied and has been used successfully for several years in clinical practice. Several selected cases are presented that demonstrate the use of TENS along the prescribed protocol.
