electrical stimulation and neural regeneration
Electrical stimulation refers to the use of electrical impulses to activate or enhance the function of cells, tissues, or nerves in the body. It can be used to target specific areas and promote neural activity or muscle contractions for therapeutic purposes. Neural regeneration, on the other hand, pertains to the natural process of regrowth and restoration of damaged or injured neural tissue. It involves the repair and replacement of damaged neurons to restore normal functioning of the nervous system. Overall, electrical stimulation can be employed as a technique to facilitate or enhance the process of neural regeneration, promoting the recovery and restoration of neural functions.
