The Pain Relieving Neuromuscular Stimulator System

This is the cordless home electrotherapy system that delivers hours of drug-free pain relief without requiring a visit to a doctor. Providing relief of pain associated with arthritis, the device employs Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) therapy, a method of pain relief therapy widely adopted by medical professionals. When the self-adhesive electrode pads of this device are placed on sore spots, they send harmless low-frequency electrical pulses into the tissue that block pain signals passing through nerves to the brain. The system increases blood flow to the area to promote healing and relaxation. According to the American Physical Therapy Association, TENS therapy can be an effective element of pain management for low-intensity discomfort, such as back pain and muscle soreness in the extremities. The tethered controller lets you easily choose from 10 treatment modes with 10 intensity levels. System comes with two 1 1/2" x 3 1/2" electrode pads, two 3" x 5" electrode pads, an adjustable belt for up to a 48" waist that secures the electrodes for back pain relief, and carrying bag. Includes three AAA batteries. Not for use by those with pacemakers. 6" L x 2 3/4" W x 1" D. (1 lb.)
