Chronic pain is a聽common health problem, for which the treatment is complex and challenging. Non-invasive brain stimulation techniques, specifically transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS), show promise as a聽well-tolerated new therapeutic modality with few side effects. This is supported by growing evidence of an association between altered neuronal oscillations and chronic pain. However, to date, only a聽handful of studies with variable methodology have evaluated tACS for potential applicability to patients with chronic pain.
