Does Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation help against cancer?

Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation is a complementary and alternative therapy used for pain relief in which a device transmits electrical impulses through electrodes to an area of the body. A Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation system consists of an electrical generator connected to a pair of electrodes, which are attached to the skin near the area of pain and carry a mild electric current. A treatment session may last between 5 and 15 minutes, and treatments can be applied as often as necessary. This therapy may be administered by a physical therapist or applied at home using a portable system. Although Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation is most appropriate for short-term pain relief. Some cancer patients with mild pain related to nerve damage may benefit from this technique for brief periods of time. However, Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation will not cure the underlying causes of pain.
