When in pain, your mobility can become restricted and your way of living becomes altered.

One way to treat this is with a transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) unit, a device that sends low-voltage electrical currents to targeted areas for pain relief. A home use TENS unit is a small, battery-powered device and is mainly used for continuing the effect of in-office treatment. A larger, more powerful device is used in a therapy setting.

What is the Process of TENS Therapy?

During TENS treatment therapy, electrode pads are placed over the areas in pain and then electrical pulses are sent through the skin. These pulses can alter your body’s perception of pain and also promote the release of endorphins, creating relief from pain.[/wr_text][/wr_column][/wr_row][wr_row width=”boxed” background=”none” solid_color_value=”#FFFFFF” solid_color_color=”#ffffff” gradient_color=”0% #FFFFFF,100% #000000″ gradient_direction=”vertical” repeat=”full” img_repeat=”full” autoplay=”yes” position=”center center” paralax=”no” border_width_value_=”0″ border_style=”solid” border_color=”#000″ div_padding_top=”10″ div_padding_bottom=”10″ div_padding_right=”10″ div_padding_left=”10″ ][wr_column span=”span12″][wr_text text_margin_top=”0″ text_margin_bottom=”0″ enable_dropcap=”no” appearing_animation=”0″ disabled_el=”no” ]What is the Process of TENS Therapy?
