INTRODUCTION

Now, Therapy Power is available to All!

What people never thought possible has occurred. Electrical Nerve Stimulation can now be used within Medical, Therapy and Acupuncture clinics, in the Home and whilst Mobile. Modern microelectronics has enabled the production of small, mobile use electrical stimulators, with which healthcare professionals and individual people have the POWER to apply a broad range of applications for Pain Management, Healing, Exercise and Wellbeing.

In order to explain why electrical nerve stimulation is possible, it is necessary to first be aware that the body is an electrically charged being, with all functions being activated by electricity generated within the body. The electricity generation occurs due to the interaction of the chemicals provided by the food and liquids we ingest, inhale and absorb across our skin.

The differing electrically charged potentials of the body's chemicals cause an ionic flow to pass between the chemicals. It is this ionization which carries nutrients, waste products and gases across cell walls and generates neural action potentials within nerve tissue. This is achieved with charge levels of the electricity in the body, which are so small, that in our day-to-day lives we are unaware they even exist. The intensive TENS* (Transcutaneous** Electrical Nerve Stimulation) therapy we are now able to apply, enables the required doses of effective treatment needed to optimize the management of chronic pain, muscular, arthritic and injury disability. These and many other ailments can now be adequately addressed, without the undesired side effects of medication.

* TENS - is a generic name for small portable electrical nerve stimulators.
** Transcutaneous - means across the skin.
