A painless, noninvasive brain stimulation technique can significantly improve how young adults learn math, my colleagues and ...

Struggle with math? A gentle jolt to the brain might help. A new study published Tuesday in PLOS Biology suggests that mild electrical stimulation can boost arithmetic performance -- and offers ...

Key Takeaways on Motion Sickness Motion sickness is caused by vestibular sensory conflict. This means, there is a difference between incoming vestibular information and what we expect that ...

Abstract Background Galvanic vestibular stimulation (GVS) is a non-invasive technique employed to rehabilitate balance by delivering low-intensity, short-duration electrical stimulation to the mastoid ...

A new study has found the non-invasive application of in-ear electrical stimulation to the vagus nerve to be safe and effective in reducing osteoarthritis-related knee pain. It opens the door to ...

In a small pilot study, men with androgenic alopecia saw improvements in hair density and thickness after 6 months of daily, 30-minute treatments with a wearable, low-level electrical stimulation ...

Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) is a noninvasive, drug-free technique to relieve acute and chronic pain. A device is used to send low-voltage electrical currents through the ...

Galvanic vestibular stimulation (GVS) involves applying small electrical currents to the vestibular organs via electrodes placed on the mastoids, providing a powerful tool for investigating vestibular ...
