摘要
Electrostatic treatment with the Elosan Cabin C1 is a form of pain therapy that works by applying an electrical charge to the outside of the whole body without a corresponding current flowing inside. The treatment is painless and lasts 8 min per session. The study investigated the effect of the Elosan treatment in 143 patients over a period of 8 weeks with sessions once per week. Investigated outcomes were changes in pain, quality of life, sleep quality, and side effects of the treatment. 65% of the patients had a relevant improvement in pain levels, the average pain reduction in all patients was 30.9%. Quality of life and sleep quality also improved significantly. There were no relevant side effects of the treatment. The best effect was seen in female patients and if the duration of pain was less than 1 year. It was found that by applying the electrostatic field once a week, various types of pain can be reduced with a long-lasting effect. The treatment is ideally combined with physiotherapy and other complementary pain therapies.
