Using the iTENS for Electrotherapy Massage

The uses of Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) cover a wide range of problems. It can treat everyday aches and pains generally found on the back, shoulders, arms, knees, and feet. It is also helpful in relieving period pain, shingles pain, cluster headaches, arthritis, fibromyalgia, tendinitis, and sciatica, to name a few. However, one should note that people who don’t have acute and chronic pain can still use TENS for electrotherapy massage or muscle stimulation. With the range of benefits that TENS therapy has, it is no wonder that someday it will become a household device.

Machines like the wireless iTENS unit are not just for pain relief but also electrotherapy massage. Electrotherapy massage is a form of therapy that utilizes mild electrical currents to stimulate the nerves and muscles in the body by mimicking physical therapeutic massaging patterns. The wireless iTENS is a small and portable Bluetooth-capable device with adhesive electrode pads for the skin. The absence of wires makes the pain treatment and stimulation more convenient and hassle-free. Through the electrode pads, the electrical currents pass through the skin to the nervous system, inducing endorphins to suppress pain. The TENS machine also blocks the pain signals from reaching the brain.

Electrotherapy Massage: effects and usage

The correct setting of iTENS is crucial for effective pain management and stimulation. When using the electrotherapy massage mode in the iTENS unit, set the level of intensity just enough to create a tingling sensation to reinvigorate the muscles and the nerves. In addition, TENS can also help relieve stress and fatigue from the body by boosting the circulation of blood and oxygen and restoring a normal range of motion. As part of their physical treatment and rehabilitation programs, physical therapists, coaches, and athletes all use TENS therapy.

Unlike other heavy and bulky massagers, you can use iTENS for electrotherapy massage while you are at work or on the go. Its light, slim and wireless design is perfect for slipping under your clothes undetected. Furthermore, you can use TENS as frequently as you want. There are no adverse side effects of using a TENS machine. Healthcare experts recommend using TENS, whether as a form of pain relief or electrotherapy massage. However, it is not advisable for use during pregnancy, cancer and on epileptic patients, and people with cardiac pacemakers. For extensive use and directions for TENS usage, consult with your doctor or physiotherapists first.
