A controversial pioneer of radio frequency medicine, Lakhovsky patented a "multiwave oscillator" in France in 1931 and in the U.S. in 1934. He claimed that disease affected the oscillating equilibrium of cells and that his multiwave oscillator using all frequencies from 3 meters to infrared was designed so that every cell could find its natural frequency and vibrate in resonance.

Lapicque, a French physiologist first introduced the term "chronaxie" in 1909 to provide a convenient index of the excitability of nervous tissues. He introduced a form of interrupted galvanic or direct current in this research on degenerative tissues that was characterized by a slow rise and fall and was trapezoid in waveform.

A pioneer of ionic medication (iontophoresis), Leduc's textbook, Les Ions ..." demonstrated how ions penetrated the body according to the laws of electrolysis. Chlorine ions were recommended for softening scar tissue, zinc ions for its antiseptic properties, lithium ions for gout and use of cocaine for giving local anaesthesia. Leduc also did pioneering work in electrophysiology showing the effect of an intermittent galvanic current on muscle and on the brain. His 1903 work laid the basis for the future treatment of brain disorders with electroshock.
