If you're like most Americans, you avoid going to the doctors. In the height of the opioid epidemic and skyrocketing premiums, the trust in the healthcare industry is faltering. With more and more people uncertain of their healthcare quality, this is prevalent. High healthcare costs, the inconvenience of scheduling appointments, and the overall experience of healthcare are proven barriers to seeing a doctor.

Have you ever gone to your doctor for aches and pain only to be told to use ice, take pain killers, or get some exercise? We've all been there, spending time away from work to see the doctor. After all that time, it can be frustrating to be told to "ice it." The frustration doesn't end there because you still have to pay the medical bill.

How do you get pain relief without seeing a doctor?

The answer lies in the form of drug-free electrotherapy called transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) therapy. TENS therapy helps relieve pain through small wearable technology called TENS units. TENS units send small, electrical impulses to pads called electrodes placed on and around the affected area. The electrical impulse treats pain by blocking pain signals from getting to the brain while aiding in the release of endorphins, a hormone known as the body's "natural pain killer."

It might seem like some crazy new technology, but TENS therapy has been around as early as 2500 BC while the first TENS units were patented in 1974. With thousands of people swearing by them for both acute and chronic pain, TENS units are a proven form of drug-free pain relief. Don't take our word for it, read a typical testimonial from a pain sufferer:

"This is just perfect, I've been struggling with some old injuries product of exercising a lot, and this has been my life savior. I use it every night to relieve the pain and help my muscles to recover. It's like having your own therapist at home. Perfect size, easy to store, compact, just perfect!" - Happy TENS Unit User

No need for a prescription.

TENS units are available over-the-counter (OTC), meaning you can get them without a prescription from your doctor or physical therapist. That means no waiting around in doctor's offices or getting refills for drugs. It's prescription-free pain relief at your fingertips.

Will TENS therapy help with your specific type of pain?

Most likely.

Because you're able to target your pain and adjust treatment settings, TENS therapy is versatile for both short term pain as well as long term. We've identified 40+ types of pain that TENS therapy is effective in treating. These pain types range from acute pain such as muscle pain/soreness, menstrual cramps, and shoulder pain to chronic pain, including arthritis, fibromyalgia, and more.

With many TENS units, you can customize the strength of the treatment, length, and pulse of the shocks. That means you're able to customize your pain management to your liking and on your own time. This differs from pain relief drugs and other traditional pain methods where you can't control the strength of the treatment.

What about safety?

One of the significant benefits of TENS therapy is how safe it is. Many people swear by TENS therapy because there are little to no side effects. Unlike many types of pain medications, TENS therapy is entirely safe. The shocks administered from TENS units are not strong enough to cause any physical damage.

Because of their safety, you're able to use TENS devices as long as needed. That means you get unlimited pain relief for whenever and wherever you need it - no need to worry about 'overdosing' on pain relief or feeling drowsy. Since many TENS units are small and subtle, you're able to use them in public without any hassle. 

TENS Therapy: The More Cost-Efficient Pain Relief Solution

TENS therapy is much more affordable compared to other solutions such as pain medications. You can get your hands on a TENS machine for as low as $27 with electrodes included. Because you can customize your treatment, you don't have to go to the doctors to increase the strength like you would with prescription pain killers. That means no awkward doctor visits, no more long waits for doctors and refills, and no more surprise medical bills!
