  1. Omronhealthcare-ap.com (SG) TENS Machine Online TENS stands for transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation and is a device that can be used to get relief from pain. The TENS machine can be battery operated or powered by electricity. TENS machine online is easily available not just in Singapore but all advanced and developing countries. How the machine works The TENS machine works by delivering small electrical impulses through electrodes. These electrodes have adhesive pads which help in attaching them to the human skin. These electrical impulses have a major impact on the nervous system by flooding it. This reduces the ability of the nerves to transmit pain signals to the brain and spinal cord Such electrical impulses also stimulate the production of endorphins in the body. These endorphins are natural pain relievers which reduce the feeling of pain in the particular part of the body. TENS units can be used for the following: •Period pain •Postoperative pain •Joint pain •Labour pain •Back and neck pain The following conditions also cause pain and the TENS machines can be used to alleviate this pain quite effectively: •Endometriosis •Sports injuries •Arthritis •Multiple sclerosis •Painful diabetic neuropathy •Fibromyalgia •Spinal cord injury The TENS machine has a system that allows you to deliver a proper level of current to the painful part and differ the level of pain relief as required. Let us look at the aspects of the electrical current that need to be altered in order to achieve proper control on the level of pain relief. Intensity

Frequency Here frequency refers to the number of electrical pulses per second. In case of acute pain you may require high frequency pulses that range from 80 to 120 cycles per second. In the case of chronic pain it is better to opt for low frequency current in the range of 1 to 20 cycles per second. Duration Duration signifies the number of microseconds that the current is sent into the skin during each pulse. This way you can easily buy a TENS machine online and use it for pain relief.
