Default My experiences have been in...

the past 18 mos using the Tens Accupoint. A Tens unit [portable] used in PT on various accupuncture points. The first 3 times used, it was, well, just weird! No other way to put it... After the 4th or 5th times, I started to get the 'zeeps/zaps' that to me, indicated some reconnecting/programming of stray nerves. Since it's not 'attached' to you, is just fine with me...it works/worked! I would have a 'happy' buzz for days after! I like happy buzzes!

There are other forms of electro-stim equipments out there...TENS worked thru this other vehicle for me tho...TENS in many different forms has been around for a LOONG time. It strangely is, only now beginning to be a more 'accepted' form of therapy...Heck, I don't care! As long as it works - Great!

Other 'stim' formats seemed to either work or be adverse, depending on the machines and their settings tho. IF you feel things getting worse, speak UP and LOUDLY. Creating muscle spasms you don't need is NOT my idea of FUN!

Super good thoughts and some HAPPY Buzzes your way! - j
