Exposure to the MEGA-WAVE instrument increased EEG power in Alpha2, Beta1, and Beta2 bands during and after exposure, and mobile telephone exposure increased power in the same bands after about 15 minutes.

Plain English Summary

Summary written for general audiences

Researchers conducted a single-blind, cross-over, placebo-controlled study with 36 volunteers. Volunteers were exposed to a MEGA-WAVE therapy instrument and a mobile digital telephone, and also underwent a no-exposure control. The MEGA-WAVE instrument increased EEG power in Alpha2, Beta1, and Beta2 bands during and after exposure. The mobile telephone increased EEG power in the same bands after a delay of about 15 minutes.
