TENs is for blocking pain signals. There is little evidence that any healing is promoted. (this is what my PT said when I had my therapy.)
IFc is used (sometimes in conjunction with ultrasound) to actually promote healing. This treatment at my PT reduced my severe tendon injury in about 3 treatments. The pain remaining was bearable. I was pretty impressed.
