Looking good & feeling great

Transcutaneous Electronic Nerve Stimulation, or TENS, is a highly-developed technology for physiotherapeutic treatment. Light electrical pulses stimulate and revive the areas of the body to which the electronic pads are attached.

●       Pain can be treated effectively

●       Muscle training after sport injuries can be assisted

●       General relaxation can be achieved

Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation involves the transmission of electrical energy from an external stimulator to the peripheral nervous system via continuously placed conductive gel pads. TENS can be sub-classified into two variants: low-intensity (1–2 mA), high-frequency (50–100 Hz) TENS; and acupuncture-like high-intensity (15–20 mA), low-frequency (1–5 Hz) or "dense-disperse" TENS. The purported mechanism of action of TENS invokes both spinal supraspinal theories.

TENS can help with all acute and chronic pain:

●       Tension headaches

●       Shoulder & arm pain

●       Pain in the neck vertebrae

●       Pain in the thoracic spine or in the lumbar spine

●       Hip and knee joint complaints

●       Pain in the ankle or heel

●       Pain in the Achilles tendon (achyllodynia)

●       Trigeminus neuralgia

●       Carpal tunnel syndrome

●       Polyneuropathy of the lower leg

●       Pain after a shingles infection
