MediTENS XP is a
clinically
proven, safe and effective means of combating pain using TENS
or Trancutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation. The MediTens XP is
a dual channel, digital device which provides an easy to use and attractive,
hand-held unit that can be used where and when needed to help manage
your pain. TENS provides pain relief in two ways, Pain gate-control
which blocks the pain pathway to the brain and masks the pain sensation,
and Endorphin Release, which encourages the release of the body's
own, natural pain relieving chemicals to fight pain.
Pain Gate Control: The Pain Gate Control programme delivers a
comfortable tingling sensation, this blocks the pain pathway to the
brain, jumbling the message of 'pain' to the brain and you register
this pulsing sensation instead of the pain sensation.
Endorphin Release: For the Endorphin Release programme, the
stimulation feels similar to a tapping sensation. After 20-40 minutes
of this, the body releases endorphins, the body's own natural pain
relieving hormones and these continue to remain in the system up to
several hours after treatment has ceased.
The MediTENS XP is a five programme digital TENS device, and is
unique in that it offers a special combination TENS programme which
delivers immediate and long-term pain relief for both acute and chronic
pain. The device can be used to combat pain from all common sites of
pain on the body including:
- Neck and Shoulder Pain
- Back Pain
- Knee Pain
- Arthritic Pain
- Post Operative Pain
- Period Pain
- General Musculoskeletal Pain
