Scrambler Therapy is a type of non-invasive neuromodulation. According to the researches that studied the effects of the existing Scrambler therapy, 10 times of Scrambler Therapy showed a significant pain relief lasting for more than 1-3 months in various pain disorders such as post-herpetic neuralgia, cancer-related neuropathic pain, and mixed pain. No treatment-related side effects have been reported in Scrambler therapy conducted in previous studies. The most inconvenient thing about Scrambler Therapy is that it has to be treated more than 10 times during specific period, so frequent visits to the hospital for treatment linked to the higher burden for the patient's cost and even those are not fully covered by the government's insurance. To reduce this discomfort and expand the range of treatment in the era of Corona of untact treatment, LG Electronics devised a home self-scrambler treatment device for pain patients. The LG Medipain device has the same treatment function as the existing hospital Scrambler treatment device, but there has been no study on its efficacy and safety. Therefore, the investigators want to conduct this research and find out about the safety and equal efficiency of the LG Medipain Therapy. In this study, it is expected that pain relief and improvement of quality of life can be obtained for patients with various types of chronic pain through self-application of LG Medipain device.
