Abstract:
1. A transcutaneous electrical stimulation device for stimulating selected body parts of a mammal, comprising: a first waveform generator adapted to generate a first waveform having a first frequency capable of stimulating a first predetermined body part; a second waveform generator adapted to generate a second carrier waveform having a second frequency capable of passing through tissue of the mammal; a third waveform generator adapted to generate a third waveform having a third frequency different from and out of phase with that of the first waveform, and capable of stimulating a second predetermined body part; a modulation device electrically coupled to the first, second and third waveform generators and adapt to modulate the carrier, first and third waveforms to create a modulated signal package; and a first electrode electrically coupled to the modulation device and adapted to apply the modulated signal package thereto; wherein each of the first waveform, third waveform and the second carrier waveform are analog waveforms having a selected amplitude and frequency, and the modulation device is an amplitude modulation device configured to multiply the second carrier waveform, the first waveform and the third waveform to create the modulated signal package that maintains the amplitude and frequency information of the first waveform, third waveform and second carrier waveform.
