WHAT DOES A TENS UNIT DO?
TENS stimulates the body to release its own pain killing substances, relieving numerous pain conditions by blocking the pain.
Hundreds of studies show that TENS provides useful relief for most people with acute, subacute or chronic pain.

HOW DOES TENS WORK?
1st Choice TENS works by means of placing the electrode pads on or near the area of pain. Soothing pulses are sent via the pads through the skin and along the nerve fibers. The pulses (controlled by the user at all times) suppress the pain signal to the brain. TENS also encourages the body to produce higher levels of its own natural pain killing chemical called Endorphins and Encephalins. The sensation felt is very pleasant and soothing.
