Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulator (TENS)
One of the most common forms of electrical stimulation used for pain management is the use of electric current produced by a device which stimulates nerves for therapeutic purposes. These electric currents block pain receptors travelling from the nerves to the brain. TENS is currently one of the most commonly used forms of Electroanalgesia.
