 Chapter 15 - Modified Direct Current and its effect on pain and health

A current that has remarkable properties is discussed in detail to assist patients and therapists with understanding and practical applications. This includes remarkable events to  “fire the imagination”, research and studies in South Africa and many interesting and unique observations that have been made with APS (MDC) therapy
