Definition[edit | edit source]
High Voltage Pulsed Galvanic Current (or High Voltage Galvanic Stimulation) is a type of electrical current in which high voltage is applied with low frequency and low pulse duration. [1] It has been widely used in physiotherapy for its analgesic and muscle strengthening (for innervated muscle) effect. [2][3]
