When my father had serious back pain the TENS unit was the only thing that gave him even temporary relief. He was under a Dr.’s care, but the TENS was recommended by my son (a physical therapist). We were so grateful to find it. And I definitely feel like it gave him enough pain relief that he could then manage what the Dr. wanted him to do. Of course there needs to be precautions, and warnings for proper use. But our experience with using it then, and since, has been overwhelmingly positive!

I had 24-hour back pain. Tried everything and nothing worked. After the first time I used the TENS unit my pain went away. The best way is just relax let the TENS unit do the work know when to stop using it.

When in physical therapy for my sciatica they have used a TENS machine. They would only use it on me for 15 minutes

I didn't find this video to be "dry".. Precautions are essential for all medical devices and medicines.
Bob & Brad, it's quite possible this little video will help prevent serious injury by someone, like wearing it in water, or sleeping with it on. Actually, all the precautions are essential.
My doctor has cleared me to use a tens unit for my back pain.
I'll be checking your other videos regarding the tens unit and it's actual application. The included instructions that come with the unit are not very clear.
Thanks, guys! I appreciate you and your very helpful instructions! ❤

Make series on EMS program for muscle recovery

[crazyaces]

hair..lol the experience I had was the sticky stuff is weak. I had no issue with being too sticky but on the contrary as they always fell off. these are so tiny and weak they don't do much. I tried one years ago and didn't do much but at this point I will try anything.
I've have treatment from a large one is a professional doctor's office years ago and they are SO much better! Large and more powerful if they know where to put electrodes. these guys are hilarious

My mom suffered from arrhythmia, and she's got pacemaker in her chest. Is it safe to use TENS? Will it interfere with her pacemaker device? Is it ok, if attached to an area far from the chest, like thigh, knee or legs? Thanks!

I have bad C5 and 6. Sometimes I am in much pain. Is that too close to the neck?

[RamonaInCA]

I have the wireless TENS unit. Periodically I would like to use it on spots on my back that I cannot easily reach with those sticky pads. I would like more, options and ideas for maybe a homemade wrap that these things fit in that you could wrap around your waist or your hips? I'd like any tips on how to avoid those sticky expensive application things. I don't get rashes from them, but they don't last very long at all, reusing is a joke, And they are expensive.

They can irritate the nerve and exacerbate pain.

I need help!! I think I have pudendal Neuralgia because I’ve been sitting a lot on a wooden chair during quarantine and my penis started to feel numb. It’s a little hard to get an erection, it’s definitely numb, I feel nerves, sometimes burning. I also feel tingling on my testicles when I try to ejaculate. I’ve been dealing with this for the past 2 weeks. I don’t want surgery. I just want medications or any other treatments that help reduce the pain and the nerve blocks that make me feel horrible. My last question would be... is it curable?? Can you guys make a video about this?? A lot of people are going to experience this because we’re sitting down at home.

Are Muscle Machine Guns good for chronic back pain, to release or ease the pain? 🤔

I've been dealing with back pain for 5 years, nothing ever happened no accident or injury my doctor, physical therapist and all the MRI's I've had done say its just stress and tension, would these muscle guns help? I've been looking for anything to ease the pain. Also had dry needing and it helped for 3 days but the pain always came back. PLEASE HELP!!! 😔 I NEED NEW IDEAS AND METHODS to help alleviate my pain, it comes when it wants i don't have to do anything in particular for it to happen and tighten. Some times even the weather causes my pain and other occasions not even the weather effects it.
