Peripheral Application of Repetitive Pulse Magnetic Stimulation on Joint Contracture for Mobility Restoration:Controlled Randomized Study

Abstract

Background: Joint contracture is a limitation in the passive or active range of motion (ROM) of a joint, where in addition to the mobility limiting factor the pain is also present. Repetitive pulsed Magnetic Stimulation (rPMS) appears to be an effective, non-invasive and safety solution for treating this condition. Therefore aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of rPMS in treating joint contracture.
