TENS Therapy

Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) is a drug-free, non-invasive electrotherapy treatment used to support pain management.

During the treatment, low-voltage electrical impulses are delivered through electrodes placed on the skin.

TENS may reduce pain through two main mechanisms:

  • influencing pain signals through nerve stimulation based on the gate control theory,
  • supporting the release of endorphins, the body’s natural pain-relieving substances.

TENS may be used as supportive therapy for:

  • chronic lower back pain,
  • shoulder pain,
  • headaches,
  • joint-related discomfort,
  • post-operative pain,
  • muscle and nerve-related injuries,
  • supporting muscle activation and nerve function recovery.
