Low voltage electrical current is used as part of the therapy known as transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) to reduce pain. A TENS unit is a battery-operated gadget that uses electrodes on the skin's surface to transmit electrical impulses.

Electrodes are positioned at trigger sites or close to the nerves where the pain originates. TENS therapy has been used or is being researched to treat both acute (short-term) and chronic (long-term) pain. Some of the most typical conditions that TENS have been used for include:

• Osteoarthritis
• Fibromyalgia
• Bursitis Tendinitis
• Painful labor
• A sore back.
• Persistent pelvic discomfort
• Neuropathy brought on by diabetes
• Coronary artery disease

Details

• Universal compatibility - with pigtail snap connectors measuring 1.8 to 2.5mm in size, tens pads are made to fit your muscle stimulation device.
• Reusable - Use this bulk set of tens electrodes several times for the most discomfort relief. Seal the packaging to keep your pads clean and in good condition.
• Self-adhesive - these tens-unit adhesive pads offer a premium surface gel to guarantee a secure and cozy hold on your skin. Attach with ease to your arm, leg, back, chest, or shoulder!
• No awkward attachments - each 2x2 inch ems electrode pad is made to move naturally with your body and is latex-free, eliminating common therapeutic discomfort. It also has a comfortable cotton backing.

How it Works

Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) has two different mechanisms of action. According to one idea, the electric current activates nerve cells that prevent the passage of pain signals, altering how painful things feel to you. The alternative viewpoint contends that nerve stimulation increases the levels of the body's natural painkiller and endorphin. The endorphins then suppress the perception of pain.

Advantages

• Pads of the highest quality - we provide a wide variety of tens replacement pad sizes and forms that are globally compatible. The pads are free of latex and manufactured with cotton-backed fabric and conductive carbon film. A replacement electrode pad can be used up to 15 times. by carefully wiping your electrode pads with a moist towel after usage. One can extend their lifespan.
• Flexible and cozy, the universal electrode replacement pads are created with patient’s comfort in mind. The high-quality, 100% latex-free self-adhesive gel pads consistently provide a tight fit while maintaining the comfort of your skin. Flexible, our anti-irritating cotton backing follows the contours of your body.
• Long-term use - your tens unit pads will take care of you when you take care of them. Our electrode pads are thoughtfully packaged in discrete, resealable bags to increase the lifespan of your replacement pads. One can be sure that your replacement pads will last a long time because each pack comes with simple maintenance instructions.

Significance of the Product

• EMS and TENS

TENS and EMS settings and capabilities can be found in more sophisticated machines. They can ease pain and build muscles thanks to their properties. A combo unit is a great feature if you want to strengthen and tone your muscles while also reducing discomfort. However, a normal, simpler TENS device will do if your primary goal is pain reduction.

• PORTABILITY

The perfect device for you may depend on your lifestyle. TENS devices exist in various forms and dimensions and may have belt clips for hands-free operation.

• INTENSITY LEVEL

The intensity setting on a gadget indicates how effective the treatment is. A professional TENS unit's greater intensity setting sends a stronger electrical current to the target location. Microamperes measure intensity levels (mA). Most TENS devices offer up to 80 mA, which is more than sufficient for most users. While some devices can produce up to 100 mA, prescription devices predominate. The intensity required to mask pain increases with its severity.

• MODES

The majority of TENS devices provide a selection of predetermined modes. These have a predetermined pulse duration, pulse rate, timer, and intensity, which might make getting started easier. More modes are often available on more expensive systems, and you can choose from various modes for each channel. This may not matter if you want to change the settings on your TENS device.

• TIMER

Most TENS units have a built-in timer that turns the device off after a long time. This may make sessions more convenient or impose restrictions. Some machines have a flexible timer or auto-shutoff for lengthy treatments that forces you to resume it.

Conclusion

A non-invasive approach to pain treatment is TENS. It can be used as a substitute for, or in addition to, prescription or over-the-counter painkillers. Some individuals who utilize TENS therapy may be able to reduce their prescription dosage. You must consult your doctor before taking your prescription or changing the dosage. TENS unit's portability and small size allow it to be used everywhere there is a need for pain management, including at home.

Few side effects of TENS therapy have been noted. Patients have occasionally reported burns at the electrode placement locations. Some patients may be allergic to the components in the pad or the glue used to attach it to their skin (the skin may appear red and irritated, or a rash may break out). The tingling sensation produced by the TENS unit may irritate some people or make them feel uneasy.
