Hi!
I recently bought one, and im not quite sure whether or not its working, i place them near my hands or on my elbow, more precisely on the supinator muscle, as that is where i have pain and soreness. It creates a tingling sensation, which is quite simular to the tingling i feel normally from my TOS, just a bit stronger. I havent experienced any significant pain relief, but perhaps i havent quite learned how to use it yet.
