TENS Unit Muscle Stimulator – 24 Massage Modes, Touchscreen EMS Device, Dual Channel, Rechargeable, Deep Tissue Pain Relief for Back, Shoulder, Sciatica, Tendonitis, Plantar Fasciitis,8 Electrodes

This is a compact unit that can accommodate 4 pads total at a time (A and B inputs that have 2 leads each). While it can't take as many inputs as the one at physical therapy, I'd argue it's just as powerful. The main unit seems well made, and the cords, inputs, connections, etc. seem fine, if not quite as robust as the unit at my physical therapist's office. I got frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis) after a fall while skiing a few years back. The orthopedic surgeon prescribed physical therapy and maybe ONE cortisone shot (and fingers crossed to avoid surgery). Well, I started with PT, which did help, and the exercises I did at home were helping strengthen my muscles. The use of e-stim along with everything else made all the difference. It really helped relax my muscles and relieve my pain for a while after using it. Once I was done with physical therapy, I really missed the 20-30 minutes with the e-stim machine at the end of my session. That was about 2 years ago, and wouldn't you know it, I hurt my other shoulder. Well, I can pretty much tell this is the same animal (it feels exactly like what happened to the other shoulder. I pulled out my exercise sheets and have been doing those, and icing and heating my shoulder (just a little heat, more icing). No cortisone this time as I don't think I really need it now that I understand how this all works. The thing that I didn't have though, was the e-stim machine. Enter a search on Amazon and voila: options galore. But, which to choose. Well after reading many reviews and going out to search engines to read articles and yet more reviews, I decided to give this one a try. It has not disappointed me. It has 6 different options for type of stimulation and varying patterns for each of those, and then you can increase/decrease the intensity of your chosen option and pattern. So far, I can only tolerate up to intensity level 2-3 of any option. The usb charger works fine, as do the leads where you attach the pads. There are 8 pads (4 sets of two) in the box, but they are reusable (make sure your skin is clean and dry, handle the pads with care). There is a "holder" for one set of pads after use (you stick one pad to each side and wrap the lead cord around it) that will help you store the pads between uses. I actually went to the company website and purchased a second holder for the other lead cord/pads if I decide to use 4 pads. I also purchased replacement pads on the company site because I know my husband will end up using this too. So, first impressions are great. This is a wonderful tool to help with pain while I rehab my other shoulder. It will be helpful for dealing with other pain and stiffness from just working out, or just getting older, lol. If something should change, I'll update this review, but for now I'm just happy to have a tool like this that works like the professional tool available at my PT's office. Being able to do this at home saves me time and co-pays. Now, I'm not saying don't go to physical therapy/doctor if you're having pain because you may need to do exactly that. In my case, though, where I know what's going on and know my body, I'm reasonably certain of my situation and what I need to do.

Just the Basic Facts Specifically got this to smooth out muscle knots that develop in my shoulders from working at a computer. The unit is highly effective, easy to use, and very powerful. It's on my "Awesome $50 Gift Ideas" list. Details There are 6 different massage modes, and 20 incremental intensity levels. I get the best results by mixing up the modes sequentially. The default session time is 20 minutes, but tapping on the time remaining increases it by 10 minutes to a max of 60 minutes. Tapping the massage icons switches modes, so the interface was designed well and is very intuitive. Intensity is indicated by 10 icons, but it's actually 20 levels because each "+" click increments it by 50%. This tiny device is so powerful that this highly granular control over intensity is essential. To illustrate this point, I've used this dozens of times and a "3" on most modes is as much as I can handle on my shoulders.. I can't imagine using this anywhere on my back or legs or arms where I could tolerate much more than a "5" or "6", so for most people it will be powerful enough no matter where/how it's used. It's the same size as an iPhone 5 SE (but much lighter), so you can hook up the system, turn it on and put the controller in your pocket if you want to do other things at the same time. It charges with a standard USB cable and using it at the "3" or "4" level, it'll last >200 minutes. Its storage box has a magnetic lid and contains an ingenious way to store & re-use the adhesive pads. which are standard & easily replaced inexpensively. Final note: I had physical therapy a few years ago that used the same principle in a medical office setting, and this accomplishes exactly the same thing. To put it in perspective: this unit cost about as much as 1 or 2 office visit copays, I've used it dozens of times so it's more than paid for itself. I'd recommend this to anyone who wants a simple, inexpensive way to have a device on hand at home.

My wife has plantar fasciitis and i have some strong pain in my calves, and this unit is helping us improve our conditions considerably. Having a twin channel with 2 pads each, we mostly share the device while we sit, and twin-independent channel is brilliant. This is a strong stimulator compared to some older models we had used from different brands. The nice thing is the multiple modes and how it is flexible to select the power per each mode. I would say it is great value for money product.

This works Really well for all types of pain and if your work demands you to stick to sedentary lifestyle with little movement and Computer/ laptop tasks, then this little product is inevitable

Excelente producto. Fuerza muy buena. Fácil de usar y muchas variedades. Solo recomendaría incluir un manual de uso de que usar en cada caso de lesión

First I like the interface it has large icons so my grandma can see and use it with ease. It has good battery life, it patches are not as sticky but otherwise happy with the purchase.
