Getting to know your device
What is a Wireless TENS Reliever unit and what
can it do?
The wireless TENS Pain Reliever is a medical device that
falls into the electrostimulation device category. It offers a
wide range of functions for increasing general well-being,
pain relief, maintaining physical fitness, relaxation, muscle
revitalisation and combating tiredness.
TENS, or transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation,
relates to the electrical stimulation of the nerves via the
skin. TENS is an effective non-pharmacological method of
treating various types of pain that have a variety of causes.
It has no side-effects if administered correctly. The method
has been clinically tested and approved and can be used for
simple self-treatment.
The pain-relieving or pain-suppressing effect is achieved by
inhibiting the transference of pain to nerve fibres (caused
mainly by high-frequency impulses) and by increasing the
secretion of endorphins in the body. Their effect on the
central nervous system reduces the sensation of pain.
The method is scientifically substantiated and approved
as a form of medical treatment. Any symptoms that could
be relieved using TENS must be checked by your GP. Your
doctor will also give you instructions on how to carry out a
TENS self-treatment regime.
