The model is electric operated and comes with all accessories. Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) is a method of pain relief involving the use of a mild electrical current. Small electrical pulses are transmitted to the body, like little electric shocks. This can help to ease pain in some people with certain types of pain. This process may promote blood flow and strengthen the muscles. TENS machines are most commonly used for people with musculoskeletal pain, such as long-term (chronic) back pain or knee joint arthritis. They are also often used for pain relief in the early stages of labour, particularly whilst a pregnant woman remains at home. It is safe for most people to use a TENS unit, and they will not usually experience any side effects. However, the electrical impulses that a TENS unit produces may cause a buzzing, tingling, or prickling sensation, which some people may find uncomfortable. Some people may be allergic to the adhesive pads. TENS units may help treat the following symptoms:1 Period pain2 Labor pain3 Postoperative pain4 Joint pain5 Neck and Back pain
