In some examples, the electrical stimulation may be sub-threshold electrical stimulation.

Application in electrical muscle stimulation.

Apparatus for effecting the electrical stimulation is described.

Electrical stimulation energy from the stimulation lead is conveyed into the one determined anatomical region in accordance with the defined stimulation parameter.

One or more electrodes may provide electrical stimulation.

Electrical stimulation is driven between the two electrodes.

Specifically, the electrical stimulation is provided in trains of pulses.

The present invention relates to a measurement/meridian stimulation device using electrical stimulation and to a meridian stimulation method using same.

In one embodiment, an introducer is provided for implanting an electrical stimulation lead to enable electrical stimulation of nerve tissue.

An electrical generator/controller (pacemaker) (10) generates, regulates the frequency, and degree of electrical stimulation.

In some examples, electrical stimulation is delivered to a patient such that selective termination of the stimulation causes a therapeutic effect in the patient after termination of the electrical stimulation to the patient.

As electrical stimulation therapy is continuously delivered to a patient, the stimulated tissue may become desensitized to the electrical stimulation therapy such that the beneficial effect of the electrical stimulation is diminished.

The electrical stimulation induces a cognitive effect in a user of the device.

The receiver-stimulator converts the acoustic energy to electrical energy for electrical stimulation of the body tissue.
