What do TENS and EMS stand for?
TENS: Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation
EMS: Electrical Muscle Stimulation.
The TENS works in two ways:
- By blocking the pain messages from reaching the brain. When the pain messages reach the brain, we feel pain as a result. The Dolito® Pain Therapy TENS Machine can block these messages from getting to the brain and therefore reduce the pain we feel. This is usually achieved on the higher Hz (>80) ratings of the TENS machines.
- By stimulating the body to make more of its own internal pain reducing chemical called endorphins. This is usually achieved on the lower Hz (<10) ratings of the MyoBravo® Premium Multifunctional Stimulator TENS machines.
The Myolito® Multifunctional Stimulator EMS devices are designed for targeted training of atrophied muscles through surge current therapy to build, strengthen and rehabilitate them. Most commonly they are used for:
- Avoidance and delay of muscular spasms
- Building and rebuilding atrophied muscles
- Scoliosis therapy
- Conserve and extend mobility
- Avoidance of muscular imbalances
- Increase muscle resistance to tiredness
Important: Advice should be sought from a suitably qualified professional (physiotherapist) before using a TENS or EMS device. People with heart conditions are at greater risk and should seek medical advice before using.
