Summary

This completed study tested a non-invasive device called NESA that gently stimulates nerves to help cancer survivors with sleep problems, fatigue, and muscle pain. Forty survivors who had finished cancer treatment at least five years ago took part. The goal was to see if the device could improve their quality of life by easing these common late effects.
