Brief Summary: Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy CIPN a side effect of antineoplastic medication was reported to occur in about 68 of the patients receiving chemotherapy CIPN does not only limit quality of life due to neuropathic symptoms but also may lead to dose reductions or premature interruption of therapy and thus to suboptimal cancer treatment

Patients with neuropathy suffer from sensory disturbances as tingling numbness burning pain or sleep disturbances and even though numerous drugs are available it is still difficult to sufficiently control these Symptoms

High tone therapy high tone external muscle stimulation HTEMS seems to be an effective treatment for neuropathic symptoms Previous studies observed promising results in diabetics and chronic kidney disease CKD patients

To date there is no investigation on HTEMS in patients with chemotherapy induced neuropathy

Therefore this aim of this project is to test if HTEMS would bring about a stronger decrease in neuropathic symptoms in this specific patient group compared to a placebo treatment

The primary objective is the alleviation of paresthesias The secondary objective focuses on detailed symptoms of neuropathiy as well as on health-related quality of life
