šŸ”„ What if electricity could calm chronic pain—without drugs?
A new university-led study, published in Elsevier UK’s peer-reviewed journal Multiple Sclerosis and Related Disorders, just proved it might.

šŸ“˜ Who did it?
Researchers from Shanghai Jiao Tong University and Shanghai University of Sport reviewed 10 clinical trials with 315 people living with multiple sclerosis (MS)—a condition where nerve damage often causes constant pain.

⚔ What they found:
People who received electrical stimulation therapy felt, on average, 1.75 points less pain on the 0–10 pain scale compared with those who didn’t.
And when the treatment lasted around six weeks, pain dropped by nearly 2 full points.
No drugs. No injections. Just safe, gentle electrical pulses helping the body manage pain naturally.

šŸ’” Why it works:
The researchers say electrical signals can ā€œclose the pain gate,ā€ blocking painful messages before they reach the brain.
It’s like quieting a noisy alarm—your nerves finally get to rest.

🧠 Why this matters:
This study was published by Elsevier, one of the world’s most trusted scientific publishers (based in the UK).
That means the research was peer-reviewed and verified by independent experts before it went public—no hype, just data.

āœ… Quick Facts
• 10 trials, 315 participants
• Pain ↓ 1.75 points (p = 0.002)
• Best results at 6 weeks
• No major side effects

🩵 Takeaway:
Electrical stimulation therapy isn’t a miracle cure, but it’s a promising, science-supported way to make daily movement and recovery feel easier—especially for people living with chronic nerve pain.
