I am glad that is all it takes. Maybe they discovered it quite early on. For a lot of us TENS doesn't even touch it.

I had TENS. My God. I could not hack the vibrations, but did have it in physical therapy (the monster TENS machine of all TENS machines) for 8 months, without any success, on the contrary, my upper leg atrophied... totally!
