TENS (Transcutanuous Electrical Nerve Stimulator)
Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) is a non-invasive, drug-free method of controlling pain. TENS therapy is intended to be used to relieve pain by sending tiny electrical impulses through the skin that stimulate the nerve (or nerves) in the treatment area. TENS therapy does not work for everyone, however therapy is effective for most patients by reducing or eliminating the pain, allowing for a return to normal activity.
