TENS
Transcutaneous Electro-Neural Stimulation (TENS) is a drug-free approach to pain management with the main advantage in that it does not carry side effects typically caused with drug-based treatment.
Using World Wide Medical’s FDA-approved therapy, the sensory nerves are stimulated with electrical impulses or charges as a means of relieving one’s sensation or feeling of pain. When a patient feels pain, these electrical charges pass through the nerves and interrupt the &pain& signals before they travel to the brain. Essentially, the brain does not have a chance to detect the feeling of pain. TENS is also known to help the body trigger the release of the body's natural pain-fighting endorphins.
