If your in pain or know someone who is these are a great alternative to pain killers and works better than them!

Lloydspharmacy TENS Machine Digital Pain Reliever

SKU: Lloydspharmacy Tens Machine-10551-218212489-1

Over half of us suffer from chronic pain such as back or joint pain. Whether you have one of these conditions, or just suffer from intermittent pain, you know it can stop you doing even the simplest of things.

What if there was a safe, affordable and effective form of pain relief for a range of different complaints which you could use alongside over the counter or prescription pain relief medication? The Lloydspharmacy TENS machine delivers small, painless electrical pulses to the body via electrodes placed on the skin. This blocks the way pain signals are sent to the brain and stimulates the body to produce its own pain relieving chemicals called endorphins.

TENS is a highly effective treatment for pain. It is used worldwide and recommended by sports coaches, physiotherapy departments, pain clinics, doctors and other medical practitioners. A TENS unit will ease pain, and should result in a decrease of drug intake! For many the relief is dramatic.

Pain - The Facts:
1 in 7 people in the UK suffer from chronic pain.
TENS stands for Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation
TENS has been around since 2500 BC there are pictures of electric fish being used

How does TENS work?
Pads are placed on or near the area of pain. Soothing pulses are sent via the pads through the skin and along the nerve fibres. The pulses (controlled by the user at all times) suppress pain signals to the brain. TENS also encourages the body to produce higher levels of its own natural pain killing chemicals called Endorphins and Encephalins

Who will TENS work for?
TENS is a highly effective treatment for pain. It is used worldwide and recommended by sports coaches, physiotherapy departments, pain clinics, doctors and other medical practitioners. A TENS unit will ease pain, and should result in a decrease of drug intake! For many the relief is dramatic.

Numerous painful medical conditions can be eased with our TENS Machine including:
Rheumatoid and Osteo-arthritis, Phantom Limb Pain, Sports Injuries, Sciatica, Aching Joints, Muscular Pain Whiplash and Neck Injury, Back pain, Menstrual Pain, and Shingles.

Remember - pain is the body's means of warning that something is amiss. Before using any TENS unit, you should establish the source and cause of your pain.

I have a TENS device to treat an occasionaly recurring whiplash injury and I find it effective, certainly more so than medication.

That said, my niece finds it intolerable to use as she finds the sensation odd. You would be wise to use rechargeable batteries too.

On balance - a bargain.

Don't you have to add huge postage costs for pricedrop????

Not really what you want to use long term for a bad back. Consider first seeing your GP to discuss what can be done long term to help your back and use this machine for short term care.

My wife was advised to get a TENS machine for labour pain relief during her pregnancy by her midwife. Paid about £40 to hire one from Boots for a month. Not too sure why this can't be used during pregnancy,

Bought one from Lloyds last year for £9.99, very effective for lower back pain relief.
