TENS
pain relief
How does TENS work?
Pads are placed on or near the area of pain. Soothing
pulses are sent via the pads through the skin and along
the nerve fibres. The pulses (controlled by the user at
all times) suppress pain signals to the brain. TENS also
encourages the body to produce higher levels of its own
natural pain killing chemicals called Endorphins and Encephalins.
Will TENS work for me?
TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) is
a highly effective treatment for pain. It is used worldwide
and recommended by sports coaches, physiotherapy departments,
pain clinics, doctors and other medical practitioners.

What is the history of TENS?
Stone carvings from the Egyptian Fith Dynasty in 2500
BC depict an electric fish being used to treat pain. Present
day TENS began after the landmark paper by Melzack and
