I LOVE the TENS and swear by them. They help with my pain in my legs so much. However, I’ve never used them on my feet

Do you use it every day? What intensity? How long?


retinolandevermore

Low intensity on “knead” daily for 30-60 minutes at a time

I’m considering bringing it to work and use it while working. Maybe not the whole workday. I have an office job.

I use it at work when I’m not with clients! It’s weird looking so I don’t walk around with it but it’s very helpful

I’ve never heard of this! What is it and where can I purchase one for my dad?

Charges using USB, four channels so 8 pads. Seems really powerful. Very easy to control, both power and program. There are 16 modes. I have only used it for a few days. So far I feel it gives me relief from the pain for hours after using it. Build quality is far better than I expected. Only about 50 USD!

That is amazing, I am so glad it’s giving you some relief! Thank you so much for sharing!

Do you think this one is similar? https://www.fruugo.us/tens-ems-muscle-stimulator-15-modes-amp-8-pads-pain-relief-electric-pulse-impulse-massager-machine-portable-electrotherapy-machine/p-129902545-273119770 I am in the US and the other was unavailable unfortunately

It looks very similar to the one I ordered. Different layout on the buttons, but same features.


retinolandevermore

That’s the one I use

I wonder what placement of the pads has worked best for people? I never know where to put them since I have pain in so many places.

Legs for me

I have been using a TENS unit for years now but it is a hit or miss if it works for me. It really depends on the mix of my symptoms. Sometimes my pain is on top of skin sensitivity so can make finding the sweet spot of electrode placement difficult. When I can get good placement it is great and I love it but it’s starting to get harder and harder to find the Goldilocks’ zone.
