Excellent Product, July 6, 2009
This review is from: Experian Health Dual Combo Tens Unit and Muscle Stimulator System with Carrying Case, Electrodes, and Battery Included Amazing Pain Relief for Chronic Pain , Acute Pain , Back Pain , Fibromyalgia ,Sciatica, Osteo Arthritis and More (Health and Beauty)
Ever since we returned from a trip abroad my husband has been suffering from excruciating lower back pain . At times he had difficulty even getting out of bed. The doctor diagnosed a herniated disk. We tried many options at the suggestion of doctors and friends , including the Alexander technique , Pilates (combination exercise and stretching, it helps somewhat) . The only practical relief came from the regular chiropractor sessions my husband had , where he was treated with a professional tens unit. It wasn't long before we were looking for a home use tens unit. This little unit was literally a life saver , it works as good as at the chiropractors office. My husband has finnaly gotten his life back again. Because of the unobtrusive design he can use the unit anywhere . Would highly recommend to anyone suffering from back pain.

Amazing Product, July 17, 2009
This review is from: Experian Health Dual Combo Tens Unit and Muscle Stimulator System with Carrying Case, Electrodes, and Battery Included Amazing Pain Relief for Chronic Pain , Acute Pain , Back Pain , Fibromyalgia ,Sciatica, Osteo Arthritis and More (Health and Beauty)
I can only say a I wish I had known about this product earlier. I've been struggling with lower back pain since 2005 . This is the only therapy that worked for me to relieve pain, allowing me to use less narcotics. The meds are causing all sorts of liver problems. I'm so glad that I can actually get through an eight hour work day without being in agony. I don't use the clip provided, rather I keep it in a special pouch so that no one would know the better. This is an excellent unit small and powerful , definitely worth the price. My only gripe is, why doctors don't recommend this therapy more to all patients with chronic back. pain.

Great product . I use the muscle stimulator and tens unit to relieve pain in my shoulder and lower back . It works great. I am in much less pain than I would be without it. I also like the treatment timer, very convenient. The instructions were clear, and it's quite easy to use. All in all it's a high quality tens unit and worth every penny.

Very helpful, December 30, 2009
This review is from: Experian Health Dual Combo Tens Unit and Muscle Stimulator System with Carrying Case, Electrodes, and Battery Included Amazing Pain Relief for Chronic Pain , Acute Pain , Back Pain , Fibromyalgia ,Sciatica, Osteo Arthritis and More (Health and Beauty)
I purchased this unit to use on my dog. He injured his back, herniated a disc and became paralyzed in the back part of his body. I used this to prevent muscle atrophy since his legs were losing mass visibly everyday. I used the EMS function to build up muscle and the TENS function as electro acupuncture. I can tell you that within the first week I saw results, His legs were definetely getting stronger and after about 5 weeks he started to regain movement but I guess the fact that the mass was there already made it easier for him. He is close to walking again, he can get up and walk a few steps, but really only with my assistance can he get far. I really think this helped him and now I'm using it to relieve pain in my mom's back, she says it works great.

I had bought a similar unit that I ended up returning because it was difficult to use and didn't seem to work but this one is quite the opposite - It is affordable, compact and easy to use. I would recommend it to anyone looking at these types of devices!

really helps, April 30, 2010
This review is from: Experian Health Dual Combo Tens Unit and Muscle Stimulator System with Carrying Case, Electrodes, and Battery Included Amazing Pain Relief for Chronic Pain , Acute Pain , Back Pain , Fibromyalgia ,Sciatica, Osteo Arthritis and More (Health and Beauty)
This little machine is amazing. Easy to operate. It provided instant pain relief. I refuse to take pain pills, and am way to active to let my strained lower back heal. This machine feels like your getting a lower back massage for hours. And it blocks the pain at the same time. Its highly adjustable. I would recommend a rechargable 9 volt batterty.
great product

Great product, February 24, 2010

It is a great product for pain and blood circulation. We use these at my PT clinic and I just recently got it on Amazon for very cheap. I use it everyday for about an hour. You can set it to be very frequent which helps deal with pain or u can do it on low frequency and high intensity to promote blood flow. Many say that you can use as a workout. Don't believe them. If you want to get more lean, workout. this unit is more for pain and rehab. My parents use it as a massager too.

did not received a new unit, April 9, 2010

The unit claimed to have both TENS/EMS capability. The TENS has 4 modes B/N/M/M1, B is for a rapid burst, N for a continuous output, M and M1 are two different ways of varying intensity for a wave effect. The EMS has 2 modes both are adjustable for ramp up duration (default 1 sec)/contraction duration (default 5 sec)/relax duration(default 10 sec). The 2nd mode of EMS only alternate the output between the two sets of electrodes.
I noticed the TENS/EMS both used the same frequency range, it was the amperage output that decides if the muscle will be moved. In my opinion, this unit worked just like a 6 mode TENS. It does the job of TENS OK but not much variation as an EMS.
One thing that get the unit a low rating, just like another customer, the unit came in with a scratched screen. Returned the unit without a hitch.

Handy little at-home therapy gadget, March 17, 2010
This review is from: Experian Health Dual Combo Tens Unit and Muscle Stimulator System with Carrying Case, Electrodes, and Battery Included Amazing Pain Relief for Chronic Pain , Acute Pain , Back Pain , Fibromyalgia ,Sciatica, Osteo Arthritis and More (Health and Beauty)
I bought this item so that I could get the same treatment at home that I get at my chiropractor's office to treat shoulder rotator cuff tendonitis. The instructions are a bit difficult to read through and understand for a non-clinical person. I figured it out mostly by trial and error. After a couple weeks of once-a-day use, my shoulder is feeling much better. Surprisingly, the original battery lasts quite a long time. Initially I used the TENS mode to treat the pain and inflammation and then switched to EMS to start strengthening the muscles. This is a great little unit for the price. The instructions are the reason that I don't give it all five stars.

Best Money I Have Ever Spent, February 24, 2010

This product is worth every penny. It was delivered as ordered and ontime. It took 6 weeks/3X per week of chiropractic appointments at $60 each to cure my last pinched nerve. I was better within 2 days and fully mobile within a week. Even paying for the overnight shipping was worth the extra cost.
