  1. Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation: A Comprehensive Guide Delve into the world of Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) with our comprehensive guide. TENS therapy, utilizing low-voltage electric currents, emerges as a non- invasive solution for pain management, garnering increasing recognition for its potential benefits. Understanding TENS Therapy: What is TENS? TENS, employing low voltage electrical currents, offers pain relief. Utilizing a battery-powered unit, it administers impulses via electrodes strategically placed on or near pain sources or trigger points. How does TENS function? TENS operates on two primary theories. Firstly, it stimulates nerve cells, disrupting pain signal transmission and altering pain perception. Secondly, it elevates endorphin levels, the body's natural painkillers, hindering pain perception. Procedure Specifics: Compact in size, akin to a small cell phone, the TENS device comprises electrode wires and adhesive-backed pads. Positioned along nerve pathways in the treatment area, these pads deliver adjustable electrical pulses, customizable in intensity, frequency, duration, and type. Benefits: TENS boasts non-invasiveness and versatility, usable independently or alongside other pain medications. Its portable nature ensures pain relief on-the-go, whenever needed.
