Abstract

 In this piece of work we expound, throughout several chapters, data which we consider impor¬
ant to understand the evolution of knowledge of electrotherapy. From the origins of the discovery of electricity, to its use as a therapy (not only directly but also through procedures where it is trans¬
ormed into other types of energy, such as light, ultrasound, magnetic fields, etc.), we offer guideli¬
es which are open to investigation since our only intention is to contribute elements, like pillars which can be used to construct a history of electrotherapy, within Physiotherapy in particular and health science in general.
