+ 3 TENS unit

ad

Haven't had to use one of these since a workplace injury almost 20 years ago. My new one arrived tonight and I must say I can see this being a useful tool. I made the mistake of letting the wife use it on her back, and well, yeah, guess I'll be buying another. Thoughts or experiences with these?

My first experience with one was at the chiropractor’s office. I had torn a muscle in my back doing bent over rows. Strange thing was I didn’t feel it till I stepped out of my car and I guessing that’s when my ribs first dislocated in my back from it being torn. Chiropractor said if he used it on me my injury would heal about a week faster. Said it was good to use at the onset of an injury. Two weeks later I was completely healed. Was on cycle at the time so that might have helped with healing too. Have one at home but kind of forgot about it. Thanks for the topic. When I get home I’ll try it on my elbow.

I had a bad injury many many years ago and I believe the tens unit helped with my rehab.

I got one myself...I like using it with a heating pad before I visit my chiropractor...I read about a study the Russians did with em back in the day for bodybuilding . It claimed to help the fast twitch muscle fibers to a small degree...

My chiropractor uses one with heating pad before going in the alignment room,
I also believe they do help with rehabing their injuries

I had to have dry needling. For pain therapy. Big joke. They take an acupuncture needle and shove it in the low back muscle about an inch and a half. Till my knee started burning. The needle would twitch for a little then quit and deeper till it started burning again. He would say the pain isn't in you back its on your head. Did that for about 6 months to no avail.
