How to Use Tens Unit

1. The electrode is often placed at a particular point, that is, the trigger point, the acupuncture point, and then moving point.

Because of the low skin resistance at these special points, there is a high-density input to the central nervous system.

These points are effective parts for placing the electrodes.

2. Frequency selection The patient feels that the symptoms can be relieved.

Chronic pain should be 14 ~ 60Hz; postoperative pain should be 50 ~ 150Hz; herpes pain should be 15 ~ 180Hz; peripheral nerve injury after 30 ~ 120Hz.

It is generally advisable for the patient to choose the frequency that he or she considers appropriate. Most patients are suitable for a stimulation frequency of 100 Hz and a width of 0.1 to 0.3 ms.

3. Current intensity: It is necessary to cause visible tremors without pain. Generally, 15 ~ 30mA, depending on disease tolerance.
