TENS Unit

A TENS unit, or Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation unit, is a small device used for pain relief. It works by sending low-voltage electrical signals through electrodes placed on the skin. These signals stimulate the nerves, potentially reducing the perception of pain and promoting the release of endorphins, which are natural pain relievers. TENS units are commonly used for various conditions, such as back pain, arthritis, or post-surgery discomfort. They're portable and can often be used at home, providing individuals with a non-invasive option to manage their pain effectively.
