Antinociceptive effects of low-intensity extrahigh-frequency electromagnetic radiation

We studied the effect of low-intensity extrahigh-frequency (EHF) electromagnetic radiation (EMR) on changes of behavior phenomena in rats observed under conditions of experimentally induced tonic somatic, visceral, and acute thermal pain. Preliminary irradiation of the animals with EHF EMR was found to exert clear antinociceptive effects. Decreases in the intensity of pain reactions were observed under conditions of both single and repeated irradiation sessions.
