Masters Document Supply

 You said:

 I'm trying to get hold of a paper that I cannot access anywhere, including Discover, or ResearchGate personal request.

I'm finding the instructions for the paper request service very confusing...

 It says that if you are a student for HEALTH you have to contact library services for the 50p cooperative service.

Can you help?

 The paper is: 

 by JSHA Koopman · 2009  Efficacy of microcurrent therapy in the treatment of chronic nonspecific back pain: a pilot study. Clin J Pain. Jul-Aug 2009;25(6):495-9.

You may use the health based co-operative scheme but as a Master student you are eligible to use the University’s Document Supply service for this American clinical trial. You will need to make a Document Supply request for the article
