Nerve pain signals reach the brain via nerves and the spinal cord.
Medical tens machine.
Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation or tens therapy is an alternative pain relief therapy that involves the use of a battery operated device called a tens unit.
However the treatment is generally very safe and you may feel it s worth trying instead of or in addition to the usual medical treatments.
Ireliev s wireless tens ems machine offers 14 programs in total with 8 of them being for tens and 6 of them for ems.
P1 p2 p3 etc.
Electrical tens machines deliver small electrical pulses to the body via electrodes placed on the skin tens machines are thought to affect the way pain signals are sent to the brain.
Tens unit for pain.
Transcutaneous means through the skin.
In our thorough month long testing of the device we found each of the 8 programs to be diverse offering something very different to the next one.
The tens programs are named by number.
Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation tens or tns is the use of electric current produced by a device to stimulate the nerves for therapeutic purposes tens by definition covers the complete range of transcutaneously applied currents used for nerve excitation although the term is often used with a more restrictive intent namely to describe the kind of pulses produced by portable.
A tens unit emits low voltage electric current that stimulates the nerves.
Tens is a noninvasive method for relieving pain.
How does a tens machine work.
By doing so tens units may interfere with the brain s ability to sense pain.
