Electric & Pain

Question 0

a therapeutic wave should be blank

Answer 0

symmetrical

Question 1

at the end of a sine pulse, will there be a charge?

Answer 1

no

Question 2

electric stimulates blank to modulate pain via the spinal gate

Answer 2

beta

Question 3

level of physio response that excites nerve/muscle membranes which changes permeability

Answer 3

cellular

Question 4

protein synthesis, fibroblasts, osteoblasts and modifying microcirculation are all at the blank level

Answer 4

cellular

Question 5

level of physio response that modifies joint mobility, muscle contractility, muscle pumping, microvasculature, movement of proteins and lymphatics

Answer 5

segmental
