How TENS Therapy Works

TENS therapy uses electrical impulses to relieve pain by interrupting nerve signals to the brain‚ reducing discomfort and promoting relaxation through non-invasive‚ safe stimulation.

4.1 Mechanism of TENS Therapy

TENS therapy works by sending low-voltage electrical impulses to the body through electrodes placed on the skin. These impulses interfere with pain signals traveling to the brain‚ reducing discomfort. The therapy operates on the Gate Control Theory‚ where non-painful stimuli (electrical impulses) close the “gates” to the brain‚ blocking pain perception. This non-invasive method stimulates nerves‚ offering relief from acute or chronic pain without medication. The TENS 7000 unit allows users to adjust intensity and modes‚ tailoring treatment to individual needs for effective‚ drug-free pain management.

4.2 Benefits of Using TENS Therapy

TENS therapy offers multiple benefits‚ including non-invasive‚ drug-free pain relief. It is highly effective for managing chronic and acute pain‚ such as back pain‚ arthritis‚ and muscle soreness. The therapy is portable‚ allowing users to administer treatment anywhere. It promotes increased mobility and reduces reliance on painkillers. TENS is also cost-effective‚ with the reusable electrodes and rechargeable battery minimizing long-term expenses. Many users experience immediate relief‚ making it a convenient option for ongoing pain management. The TENS 7000 unit is FDA-cleared‚ ensuring safety and efficacy for a wide range of conditions.
