TENS devices
TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) devices are small, portable machines that deliver low-voltage electrical impulses through electrodes placed on the skin. These impulses help reduce pain by blocking pain signals from reaching the brain and encouraging the release of natural pain-relieving chemicals. TENS is commonly used for conditions like chronic pain, muscle injuries, and arthritis. It’s a non-invasive, drug-free method that patients can control, often used under guidance from healthcare providers to manage discomfort effectively.
