How TENS works
TENS is a research-backed[1] method of natural pain relief used and recommended throughout the world by pain clinics and physiotherapy departments for all types of long term pain. Not only does TENS reduce your pain, it can also help you to reduce your need for painkillers. TENS is simply a means of stimulating your body's own natural defences against pain.
​
TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) delivers low-level, safe, electrical signals through conductive pads to stimulate the nerves under your skin. These signals act in two ways: They block the transmission of pain signals travelling in nearby nerves, stopping them going through the spinal cord to the brain, and they send their own message to the brain, triggering the release of endorphin – the bodys own natural painkiller.
