@twinky i have seen people use it for tendonitis...in the elbow, one man, had two pads above and two pads below the elbow...said it worked great...i use my tens unit on my spine...usually the lower spine...the purpose of the unit is to interrupt the data that is causing the pain...9/10's of my pain is in my back; neuropathy is in legs, feet...some in my arms and two fingers...on the back one set of pads above the pain, neuropathy--one set below...or one set beside the pain or neuropathy and one set on the other side...whatever way is best to 'interrupt' the pain data...the nerves in the spine are the ones i concentrate on...thinking in terms of interrupting--you are at a party; a man approaches and starts a conversation; he fast becomes a bore; on one side of you there is a loud talker and on the other side, same thing; they begin a conversation with each other over your head...these loud talkers can 'interrupt' the 'data' from the bore...maybe a crude exhibit, but all i can think of...lol...
Thank you so much grammydove. I didn’t know for sure how to use it. I have Neuropthy in my legs and feet. Thought maybe it would stop the spreading of the neuropathy if I used it. I can still walk and drive the car but don’t know for sure how long it will last. I will try it on my legs to see if it will help. <br>I have the Tens unit because of tension in my neck after a couple of car accidents where someone hit me from behind. I works really well for this.<br>Twinky
@twinky i hope it helps...just spread the tabs apart and play around with placing them...you'll get the hang of it...
Thank you very much.<br>Twinky<br>
