T.E.N.S
T.E.N.S., or Transcutaneous Electrical Nerves Stimulation, is a particular low frequency wave form that, once applied through electrodes in the area of the cutaneous projection of the pain (triggers area), allows an almost immediate and longlasting reduction of the painful sensibility.
For this reason it is an effective, safe and innocuous therapy for the treatment of all the muscle and skeleton pains, neuralgias, rheumatic pains, articular pains, headaches, lumbar pains, sciatic pains and other affections.
