SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR IMPROVED PAIN RELIEF FROM STIMULATION OF THERMAL FIBERS

摘要

The present technology includes systems and methods for treating pain by pulsing heat into a volume of tissue containing thermoreceptors. The pulsed heat may be configured to induce stimulation of thermoreceptors. The pulsed heat may also be applied at a frequency configured to induce desensitization of at least a subset of the thermoreceptors.
