TENS currents (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) are a modern physiotherapy method that uses
low-frequency electrical current to
relieve pain and
relax muscles .
How TENS works:
Electrodes are attached to the skin at the site of pain or along nerve pathways. The device sends gentle electrical impulses that
block the transmission of pain signals to the brain and at the same time
stimulate the production of endorphins – natural “happiness hormones”. The impulses are set so that they are not unpleasant, the patient feels only a gentle tingling or pulsation.
Effects of TENS therapy:
-
Pain relief (both acute and chronic)
-
Improving blood circulation in the treated area
-
Relieving muscle tension
-
Support regeneration after injuries and surgeries
Indications (when to use):
- Spine and joint pain
- Rheumatic diseases
- Post-traumatic and postoperative pain
- Neuralgia (pain of nerve origin)
- Menstrual pain
Contraindications:
TENS is not recommended for patients with pacemakers or other electronic implants, epilepsy, open wounds or irritated skin at the application site, and during pregnancy (especially on the abdomen and lumbar region).
TENS currents are a safe, non-invasive and effective method that helps improve the quality of life of patients suffering from pain. Regular applications under the supervision of experts bring fast and noticeable relief, without the need for pharmacological treatment.
