Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS)

TENS is commonly used to treat sports injuries and pain disorders. A current is directed across the skin to cause electrical stimulation.

The electrical currents generate a response from the central nervous system that activates the release of endorphins and other physiological changes.

TENS can be used for:

  • Acute injuries and chronic pain
  • Muscle spasm Trigger points
  • Swelling/Oedema Inflammations such as tennis elbow, shoulders and tendinitis
  • Skeletal fractures
