Default TENS recommendations

I read in a recent thread(here) where a member had good results using a TENS device.

There are a couple TENS devices being advertised on TV:

Aleve Direct Therapy

Smart Relief TENS therapy




Anyone using these products?

Any recommendations for more conventional, or more effective devices?

If you haven't tried any TENS or other types of stims ( like IFC stim) before, I suggest finding a physical therapy place that has a few kinds available, and ask them to see which might be best for you and then test it out before buying anything online.

Some can be used on battery power for mobility and some can also be plugged in to an outlet if mobility is not needed so much.. so you might check for ones that can be powered both ways and flexible placements.

Default I haven't tried the 2 you listed.

I'm not sure if you saw this post from 9/2015. Tens machine
I used my $25.00 Amazon ten's machine for more than 6 months and got relief from twitching and some burning. Gratefully, I haven't needed it for some time.

Thanks. I'll probably pick up the TENS 7000 at Amazon, and see what happens.
