A system and method for stimulating a nerve, wherein the system includes afirst waveform generator adapted to generate a first waveform having afrequency capable of stimulating a predetermined nerve of the mammal, a secondwaveform generator adapted to generate a carrier waveform having a frequencycapable of passing through tissue of the mammal, a modulation deviceelectrically coupled to the first and second waveform generators and adaptedto modulate the first and carrier waveforms to create a modulated waveform,and an electrode electrically coupled to the modulation device and positionedsubstantially adjacent to skin of the mammal, and adapted to apply themodulated waveform thereto.
