How to use the tens unit?
Using the muscle stimulator is simple but needs to be done correctly to ensure optimal pain relief. Use the following steps for guidance on how to set up the tens machine.
Connecting the lead to the electrodes
Connecting the leads to the tens unit
Place the electrodes on the painful area
Turn on the machine and keep it at the lowest intensity level
Select the treatment mode
Select the desired pulse width
Select the desired pulse rate
Set the timer
If this is the first time you are using the tens unit, adjust the intensity, mode, pulse width and frequency until optimum pain relief is achieved.
When it comes to the recommended TENS settings, it is best to start with the lowest possible setting and increase the intensity as needed. Make sure you stop at a level where you feel no pain. Make sure not to go too high as the electrical pulses can cause discomfort in the target area. You also need to use a frequency and width of ten units, as this helps to create a more customised treatment depending on the location and type of pain.
tens unit electrode placement
One of the significant benefits of TENS therapy is that it targets specific areas of pain in your body. The placement of the tens unit pads is crucial when it comes to obtaining optimal pain relief.
When targeting specific areas, the pads are placed on each side of the painful area. This placement causes an electric current to pass through the targeted area. If four electrodes are used, one electrode is placed on each side of the site, in a square or diamond shape, depending on the size/location of the injury.
Each area and type of pain is different in terms of tens unit placement.
Before applying the electrodes, the skin must be cleaned and dried with soap and water and ensure that the electrodes are placed flat on the surface.
Safety did come into play when tens unit muscle stimulator was first introduced. After all, you are sending electric shocks to your body. Anyone would be concerned at first. Although TENS therapy may sound unsafe, it is completely safe. There are no records of anyone being seriously injured while using a TENS device. The only thing to watch out for is excessively strong shocks due to increased intensity levels.
Provides a safe and natural solution for pain management. The electric shocks they deliver are too weak to cause any significant damage. There have never been any reports of major injuries caused by the use of tens units, only surprising shocks.
How often can you use a period simulator machine for men? Can you use a tens unit too much?
Due to the low risk treatment of tens units, you can use them for as long as necessary. Specialists and physiotherapists usually recommend 30 minutes of pain treatment at a time, with a 20-minute break in between.
If overused, some soreness may occur and setting the settings too high can lead to uncomfortable muscle twitching. Some people report a burning sensation on the skin when the affected area is over-treated.
