The mechanism, main methods, and clinical applications of neuromodulation therapyare then discussed in detail. Meanwhile, key indicators for evaluating therapeutic effects are presented, and the strengths and weaknessesof current treatment methods are analyzed. Finally, current issues and challenges of relevant treatment methods are summarized,and possible future research directions are considered, aiming to systematically sort out neuromodulation-based chronic paintreatment strategies and provide references for improving the prognosis and quality of life of patients with chronic pain.
