What is TENS electrostimulation and how can it help us with pain?

TENS electrostimulation is an effective way to reduce pain and improve the function of selected muscle areas on your body.

TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) electrostimulation is a method used by electrostimulators that send low amplitude electrical impulses to peripheral nerves through small self-adhesive electrodes attached to the surface of our skin. These impulses overwhelm the nervous system, reducing its ability to transmit pain signals to the spinal cord and brain, additionally stimulating the body to produce natural painkillers - beta-endorphins.

Its advantages are primarily the ease of application, which allows you to use TENS electrostimulation yourself in the comfort of your own home. People who use it can significantly reduce the amount of painkillers they take, which when used in excessive amounts can lead to addiction and unwanted side effects.

Thanks to its small size, using the TENS elctrostimulator https://www.timago.com/pl/elektrostymulator-tens-yuwell.html ensures discretion, and thanks to its battery power you can take it anywhere. You can also attach it to your belt or keep it in your pocket for 24/7 access to an effective painkiller during your daily activities.

  • menstrual pain;
  • childbirth pain;
  • post-operative pain;

  • neck and back pain;
  • arthritis;
  • injuries;
  • SMA (multiple sclerosis);
  • diabetic neuropathy;
  • post-stroke prophylaxis.

How long does the effect of TENS electrostimulation last?

The duration of pain relief from TENS currents can vary depending on the cause of the pain experienced. Some people report noticing that the pain returns shortly after switching off the device, while others feel an adequate level of relief for up to the next 24 hours. Recent research in this area suggests that the duration of relief can be significantly increased by repeated use of the treatment, however this can also lead to the development of tolerance to the treatment.

Contraindications?

For most people the use of TENS electrostimulation is completely safe and side effects are extremely rare, however there are specific cases of people for whom this method is not advisable, these include: pregnant women, people with epilepsy, people affected by heart disease, and people with pacemakers as well as cancer related diseases.
