Tens units are amazing for pain management and physical rehabilitation. Once you figure out the best settings for your particular situation, they are quite effective aid in treatment plans. However, one big drawback using these are the pads can loose adhesion very quickly - for me after about 5 applications... maybe because I have naturally oily skin and very hairy legs. I wish these had the replaceable pads, but they dont. Next time, I think I will opt for ones that have this option - as using a wrap or tape to keep them in place is very inconvenient.

Periodically I get severe lower back spasms that come with excruciating pain and make me unable to stand or sit. I don’t like taking muscle relaxers unless I absolutely have to. This machine has made my recovery faster and relieved paid so I can function.

For the last three months, my physical therapist has been telling me I have problems with my sciatic. However, despite all the physical therapy and the exercises to improve it, nothing changed. Then I just did some reading and discovered that my problem is not my sciatic, it is my piriformis muscle. so I’ve been putting heat on it and I just used this tens unit this evening and after 30 minutes of use, I took it off and I was able to walk and move in ways I haven’t been able to move in months and all without pain. Definitely recommend.

So thankful I purchased this. I had experience with a smaller, less powerful unit bought at CVS, but even that was helpful. This TENS unit is a lifesaver for me in helping to manage my pain issues. The best part is that you can set it and then there are safety covers that protect the unit, so you dont have to worry about settings being accidentally changed while wearing. I often wear it on continuous mode for hours, even leaving the house with it all strapped on and hidden under my clothing. It has been a God-send. In my opinion, this device is more effective than pain medications and muscle relaxers (for those of us who have built up a tolerance to medications), and is certainly less toxic to the system. If youre wondering if this is powerful enough, this is one strong little unit that runs on a single 9 volt battery. I never set this higher than about 3.5 and it goes up to 8! You can set it as gentle or strong as you want. You can choose different modes and tweak adjustments. I purchased a set of rechargeable 9 volt batteries with a small recharging unit and I honestly cant believe how long the batteries last. (EBL 840 9V Battery Charger with 4 Pack 600mAh Li-ion Rechargeable 9 Volt Batteries) UPDATE Aug. 2017: Ive used this unit for 4 months and it got me through a really horrible time where I was suffering from knotted shoulders and trapezius with terrible trigger points that were so bad I was unable to sleep on either shoulder for nearly 4 full months. The pain radiated down into my upper arms and it felt like I needed rotator cuff surgery due to the muscles all cramping so much. I was seeking chiropractic and massage therapy once a week and taking pain meds around the clock. I finally had to have cortisone injections in 5 major trigger points, but the ONLY thing that truly helped break the cycle of pain and get me through the worst of it before the cortisone was this TENS machine. I can not recommend this unit enough for those suffering from pain. UPDATE Sept. 2017: Well, unfortunately, the unit quit working a few days before I had to travel, so I was forced to buy another one to replace it. The digital display all works, it cycles through everything, but the wires and pads do nothing. I even tried the wires and pads from my new unit, but to no avail. Although I had to wait a month to go through the manufacturer, I was fully refunded for the product and my new one works fine. My original review was 5 stars, dropped to 3 while I waited for a refund, and am leaving it at 4 stars because the seller did take care of the issue and the new unit seems to be working fine (although I did just get it a month ago). I will update if anything changes, but I still stand by the fact that it is a terrific unit when it works!

I had a pinched nerve in my back from bench pressing. It was bothering me while sleeping and throughout the day. I got professional massages, used deep tissue massage guns, tried sleeping different ways, icy hot pads, and absolutely nothing worked. I was about to call a doctor to schedule some physical therapy until my friend recommended this product. As soon as I tried it I knew this was exactly what I needed. About three weeks of using this my back is feeling much better. This is a must have for people living an active lifestyle.

Great love it small enough to fit in my purse and travel with me.

I have used a TENS unit during physical therapy and didn’t know what I would need at home. I liked the simplicity of this one and it is a lot like the one the therapist used on me. I love the sturdy case it comes in and protected control knobs. My only complaint was that you only receive 4 electrodes pads so you will need to buy more.

My husband has had severe pain in his arm for over a month and while we wait on results of tests, this take a little bit of pain away while using.

This TENS unit was quite affordable and was effective in reducing my lower back pain with accompanying sciatic nerve pain down to my foot. Placement of the electrodes is important in finding the right spots to reduce the pain. Overall, this tool has been quite effective. The life of the 9V battery is not as long as I would like it to be, (24-48 hours depending on how often youre using it.) That said, for the cost of this item and its ability to help with the pain has been most useful.

I suffer from chronic pain in so many areas and have tried so many different things to help, but this tens unit is amazing how well it is helping!!!! Highly recommended
