TENS Machines & Pain Relief - How TENS Therapy Helps Ease Chronic Pain
If you have ever experienced chronic pain, pills alone sometimes don't help enough. Relieve chronic pain with the help of a TENS Machine.
If you have ever been to the doctor and been hooked up to a machine that sends low voltage shocks to your muscles, you've been treated by a TENS machine. TENS stands for Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation. They are used to help with chronic pain relief and are available for home use (as prescribed by a physician).
Portable TENS machines make it so you can easily be mobile and soothe your chronic pain including chronic back pain. Think of how much better you could feel and how much more efficiently you could work if you can treat your chronic pain throughout the day.
TENS units are popular with athletes and physical therapists because of the low risk of side effects. Prolonged usage of pain pills can build a tolerance and also do damage to organs like the kidneys, stomach, and liver. You don't have to be an athlete to use a TENS machine. The vast majority of TENS users are allergic to pain medicine or simply don't want to pay for or use pills.

Using your TENS machine
EMS systems, like TENS machines, are incredibly easy to use. It's a matter of simply applying the electrodes to the area you need pain relief and adjusting the settings to what works best for your needs.
Adjusting settings on a TENS unit is where most people trip up. You should go over what settings you should use with your doctor. You should never attempt to operate your TENS machine without consent and help from a certified physician. Setting your TENS unit too high or too frequent can cause serious health problems. If you have been prescribed use of a TENS machine and are unsure of the settings, we suggest calling your doctor first. Placing the settings on the lowest voltage and frequency, will be safe.
How To Use A TENS Unit
How TENS Machines Work
TENS machines are nothing new and aren't extraordinarily complicated. TENS units simply send low voltage signals to muscles/nerves via TENS electrodes. The electrodes are attached to the part of the body that is in pain. The electric signals interrupt the electric signals the nerves send to the brain. The brain then has trouble processing the signals from that area and eventually ignores the signal thereby relieving the pain.
TENS therapy is not a cure for pain by any means. It is suggested you talk to your doctor or physician about the cause of the pain and if it's safe to use a TENS machine. TENS can be dangerous if not used properly and under the guidance of a certified physician or physical therapist.
