What is Tense?
- TENS: Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation TENS users should be instructed or prescribed by qualified health professionals prior to the application of the device.
- TENS is an economical way of pain management, but is of no curative values, as current scientific and clinical studies suggest.
- TENS devices work by producing low frequency electrical impulses that are applied to the skin, via electrode pads, to relieve pain.
- Specific indications: it is used for the symptomatic relief and management of chronic, intractable pain and as an adjunctive treatment in the management of post surgical and post traumatic acute pain problems.
- The TENS only be used under medical supervisions for adjunctive therapy for the treatment of medical diseases and conditions.
PRINCIPLES OF TENS TREATMENT
- TENS, Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation, is a method of applying controlled, low-voltage electrical stimulation to large, myelinated peripheral nerve fibers via cutaneous electrodes for the purpose of modulating stimulus transmission and relieving pain. The tissues and cells of our bodies are always emitting electricity, which regulates the organs, nerves and muscle.
- TENS, Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation is to use both positive and negative poles of electricity conducted by electrodes and affixed to the surface skin to have electric currents stimulate the peripheral nerve fibers.
- TENS is believed to work by the following mechanism. The body has its own mechanism for suppressing pain. It does this by releasing non-addictive natural chemicals called endorphins in the brain which act as analgesics. TENS may activate this mechanism. The effectiveness of TENS treatment is not 100% for all pain syndromes. Experimentation with setting and electrode placement may be required for best results.
TENS TREATMENT Application
In medical science terms, TENS treatment is suitable for symptomatic relief of chronic, intractable pain, post-traumatic and post-surgical pain.
Notes:
- The patient should use the modes and treatment times that are recommended by their physician.
- Treatment frequency: 1-2 times per days.
- Do not have TENS treatment 45 minutes before and after meals.
- TENS treatment is not a replacement for your usual medications; follow your physician to manage overall medication.
