1. A neuromodulation system for inducing locomotor activity in a mammal, the neuromodulation system comprising:
- a processor;
a first signal generator;
a second signal generator;
an electrode; and
a memory device storing instructions which when executed by the processor, causes the processor, in cooperation with the first signal generator, the second signal generator, and the electrode, to deliver a continuous therapeutic signal at 0.5 Hz to 100 Hz with an overlapping high frequency pulse at 5 kHz to 10 kHz to the mammal,wherein the processor is configured to synchronize phasing between the continuous therapeutic signal and the overlapping high frequency pulse,wherein the overlapping high frequency pulse is configured to suppress sensitivity of pain receptors; and
wherein the signal is delivered at 30-200 mA.

19. A neuromodulation system comprising:
-
a processor; a first signal generator; a second signal generator; an electrode operatively connected to the processor; and a memory device storing instructions, which when executed by the processor, causes the processor, in cooperation with the first signal generator, the second signal generator, and the electrode, to deliver a secondary high frequency electric pulse of 10 KHz which overlaps with a continuous therapeutic primary biphasic low frequency pulse delivered at 0.5 Hz to 100 Hz resulting in less skin impedance and pain free stimulation, wherein the signal is delivered at 30-200 mA; wherein the processor is configured to synchronize phasing between the secondary high frequency electric pulse and continuous therapeutic primary biphasic low frequency pulse; and wherein the secondary high frequency electric pulse is configured to suppress sensitivity of pain receptors. - View Dependent Claims (20, 21)
