TENS/EMS Combo unit
TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) has been used in medical and allied health fields for nearly 40 years, especially for pain relief. The small electrical currents directly interfere with the pain sensation by “overriding” the natural nerve electrical signals.
EMS is used for relaxation of muscle spasms, prevention or retardation of disuse atrophy, increasing local blood circulation and muscle re-education.
The use of TENS/EMS therapy is safe and simple. Affordable high-quality portable units are available in our clinic.
