Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation

TENS

State-of-the-Art Rehabilitation & Therapy Modality

TENS
Overview & Description

In physiotherapy, a TENS machine is used to manage both acute and chronic pain by delivering small electrical currents through electrodes placed on the skin. This stimulation works by blocking pain signals from reaching the brain and encouraging the release of natural painkillers called endorphins.

✨ At Bansal Physiotherapy Clinic, we leverage the latest medical advancements and high-quality equipment to provide tailored recovery options for every patient.

How it Works
  • Blocks pain signals: The low-voltage electrical current stimulates large-diameter nerve fibers (Aβ fibers) that interfere with the transmission of pain signals to the brain.
  • Stimulates endorphin release: It can also stimulate the release of natural painkillers called endorphins from the body, which provides pain relief.
  • Reduces inflammation and muscle spasms: It may also improve circulation, helping to wash away inflammatory substances and relax muscles.
Benefits & Common Uses
  • Chronic pain: Arthritis, fibromyalgia, and chronic back and neck pain.
  • Acute pain: Soft tissue injuries like sprains and strains, and muscle soreness.
  • Post-operative pain: Pain after surgery, helping to reduce the need for pain medication.
  • Other conditions: Labour pain, nerve pain (neuropathy), and cancer-related pain.

Professional Care — Using advanced techniques like TENS ensures a faster, natural recovery, allowing you to return to active life safely.
