How TENS works
T.E.N.S. stands for Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation. T.E.N.S. stimulates your body’s own natural defences against pain, namely the release of endorphins. TENS is totally safe and has been used successfully by thousands of pain sufferers.
At low frequency settings, and slightly stronger outputs, TENS drives the motor nerves to produce a small repetitive muscle contraction. This is seen by the brain as exercise, and this promotes the release of endorphins - your body’s own natural pain killer. The relief builds up and normally takes about 40 minutes to reach a maximum level which can last for hours after the machine is switched off. By using TENS, you can expect to achieve a significant reduction in pain - if not complete relief from pain.
Endorphin Release

TENS sends a gentle stimulation through the skin which works in TWO ways:
What is TENS?
It stimulates the sensory nerves, which carry touch and temperature signals. These nerves go to the same connections in the spine as the nerves carrying pain. A strong sensory signal will block the pain signal travelling up the spine to the brain. This is known as closing the “Pain Gate” and takes effect quite quickly after the unit is switched on. When the gate is open, pain messages get through to the brain and we feel pain. When the gate is closed, these pain messages are blocked and we do not feel pain. In effect, the brain is busy dealing with the messages it receives quickly from the TENS machine, rather than the slower (more painful) pain signals that the body is receiving from elsewhere. It explains why, if you injure yourself, rubbing that area can temporarily reduce the pain.
Pain Gate
You can use low frequency (<10 Hz) programmes on acupuncture points, to achieve similar effects to TENSacupuncture.machines can be used alone for pain relief or be combined with other treatments. You can safely use TENS as long as it gives you pain relief. The effect may wear off after a few hours (this is called “accommodation”). If this happens, take a break of an hour or so before trying again.
TENS is effective for pain relief from a very wide range of causes. TENS machines can be used to help reduce pain from problems in muscles, joints and nerves. It can be also used for people with musculoskeletal pain such as long-term (chronic) back pain or knee joint arthritis. They are also often used for pain relief in the early stages of labour (see maternity TENS), particularly whilst a pregnant woman remains at home. Other uses include migraine headaches, period pain (see Ova+) and sports injuries.

that adequate preparation can help to reduce pain or at least modify the perception of pain and reduce anxiety, which can help cope with labour. There are several pain relief options: three main medical pain-relieving options (Nitrous oxide, Pethidine or Epidural anaesthesia) and non-drug pain relief (self-help techniques, complementary therapies and TENS).
Maternity TENS machines have an excellent reputation as one of the safest, most effective forms of modern pain control available to women during childbirth. Midwives recommend maternity TENS as the machines enable mothers to remain mobile and upright during labour; aiding the descent and dilation whilst providing a more natural, drug-free form of pain relief. It’s probably most effective during the early stages, when many women experience low back pain.
Labour Pains
When it comes to giving birth, most women want to know: how much is it going to hurt and will they be able to cope with the pain? Unfortunately, you can’t answer either of these questions with certainty. But what you can do is improve the ability to cope with pain during labour, as well as understand the options for pain relief and their impact on mum-to-be, labour and baby.
While you are pregnant, you may feel your uterus (womb) tightening from time to time. These are called Braxton Hicks contractions. When you go into labour, this tightening feeling becomes regular and much stronger.
If medication is used to start off (induce) labour or speed up your labour, your contractions may be more painful.
The tightening may cause pain that feels like period pain, and usually becomes more painful the further you get into labour. Different women experience labour pains in different ways.
Most women use a range of ways to cope with labour pain. It is a good idea to have an open mind and be Researchflexible.suggests
A maternity TENS machine consists of a batterypowered, hand-held controller connected by fine leads to four flat pads. The pads are covered in a firm gel that helps them stick to your back. Maternity TENS works in the same way as general TENS by: preventing pain signals from reaching your brain and stimulating the body to release endorphins. Additionally, it helps mum-to-be to feel in control of the labour and be less anxious and it also offers a distraction from the contractions.
• Safe for mother and baby
• Can be used to manage after birth pain, postepisiotomy pain and general back.
How Maternity TENS works
In 2013 survey of more than 1,200 mums who had given birth within the last five years (conducted by the Department of Health's Maternity Matters), almost 30% of respondents had used a maternity TENS machine while giving birth, and the majority of those who used one, confirmed it provided effective or very effective pain relief.

Benefits of TENS
• Easy-to-use
• Recommended by midwives and GPs
• Drug-free
• 9 out of 10 women find TENS helpful in labour
• Mum-to-be remains in control & mobile
The machine sends small, safe pulses of electrical current via the leads to the pads on your skin. The pulses pass through your skin and into the muscles and tissues. This gives a gentle tingling or buzzing sensation, which may be stronger or weaker, depending on the setting level. A TENS machine has buttons that you can use to control the frequency and strength of the pulses. There is also a boost button when you want maximum output from the machine. This may help you to get through each contraction.
• Can be safely used in conjunction with analgesics such as pethidine or standard gas and air
• Can be used from the onset of labour, helping with transition from home to hospital
TENS is most effective when used from the onset of labour as this allows the body time to build endorphin levels. This can take around 30-40 Theminutes.advantage
TensCare maternity TENS units use extra large pads to ensure that all the relevant nerves are covered to give the most effective pain relief.
TENS can also be used to ease post-operative pain following a caesarean, perineal tear or episiotomy and is safe to be used in conjunction with other forms of pain relief during labour (except water births).
of using maternity TENS in early labour is that they don’t involve drugs, so there are no side-effects for mother and baby.
Not only can TENS be beneficial throughout labour, it can also be used to relieve back pain in the later stages of pregnancy.
Many women find TENS particularly effective in the early stages of labour, giving them pain relief at home. Using TENS gives mum-to-be control over her pain relief, which in turn can help her to feel more relaxed. For some women using TENS could mean staying in the comfort of her own home for longer. It also enables her to remain mobile and upright, which can aid descent and dilatation.
Unlike general TENS machines, the mamaTENS, mamaTENS Mytime and perfect mamaTENS machines have preset programmes which are specifically designed to help relieve pain through each stage of labour.
They also offer a boost button which allows mumsto-be to rapidly increase the intensity to provide additional pain relief during contractions.

How IFT works is MIC
The impulses are generated by a device and delivered through electrodes on the skin in direct proximity to the muscles to be stimulated. The impulses mimic the action potential coming from the central nervous system, causing the muscles to contract (these muscle contractions retrain the muscles, increase their effectiveness and improve their condition).
Low (1-10 Hz) frequencies coupled with long impulse times have a purifying and relaxing effect through individual contractions, whereby the circulation in the treated muscle is simultaneously improved and removal of metabolic end products is supported (lymphatic drainage). The oxygen supply to the muscle is improved.
EMS stands for Electrical Muscle Stimulation and is a widespread and generally recognized method that has been used for years in sports and rehabilitation medicine. EMS uses external electrical impulses that act through the skin to stimulate the nerves supplying a specific muscle group.
How EMS works
In contrast, medium (20-50 Hz) frequencies can put a high level of strain on the muscle, thus promoting the muscular structure. Very high frequencies (60-90 Hz) can be used to promote muscle definition and bulk.
Different frequencies of muscle stimulation have different effects:
EMS is used for rehabilitation purposes, for instance in physical therapy in the prevention of disuse muscle atrophy which can occur for example after musculoskeletal injuries, such as damage to bones, joints, muscles, ligaments and tendons. This is distinct from transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS), in which an electric current is used for pain therapy. EMS can also be used as a supplement to conventional muscle training (in order to increase the efficiency of muscle groups) and a cosmetic tool (adapt physical proportions to the desired aesthetic results).
What is EMS?
IFT stands for Interferential Therapy and is used for the symptomatic relief and management of chronic (long-term) intractable, post traumatic and post surgical pain. In addition to providing pain relief by the same mechanism that TENS uses, Interferential Therapy’s major role is to accelerate the inflammatory or healing rate.
•involving:Muscle wastage (including: neuromuscular facilitation; muscle re-education; muscle training; prevention/slowing of atrophy/hypotrophy; preventing post-operative muscle weakness; reduction of spasticity; maintaining or increasing range of motion; training of partial peripheral nerve damage with signs of reinnervation; treatment of scoliosis)
IFT is used to treat almost any condition where inflammation is a problem. For example, sports injuries; arthritic conditions; bruising and swellings, back pain, osteo-arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, muscular pain. Many practitioners use a “Sweep” treatment which uses constantly changing interference pulse frequency. Practical clinical experience suggests therapeutic benefits for these sweeps in addition to those of conventional nerve stimulation.
Muscle changes its characteristics according to how it is used (called the Trophic Effect). The type of exercise influences the balance of different type of muscle fibre. So low frequency stimulation builds postural muscle with lower strength but longer endurance, higher frequency stimulation builds strength, and even higher frequency builds short lasting explosive power.
Clinical Applications
Interferential Therapy delivers an electrical stimulation into the affected tissue and utilises two of the medium frequency currents, passed through the tissues simultaneously, where they are set up so that their paths cross and they literally interfere with each other. This interaction gives rise to an interference current (or beat frequency) which has the characteristics of low frequency stimulation –in effect the interference mimics a low frequency stimulation.
• Muscle relaxation (in order to loosen up muscular tension, improve muscular fatigue symptoms; accelerate muscle regeneration after high muscular performance).
30
The effect on muscle tone of electrical stimulation (EMS) is generally only noticeable after regularly repeated application.

What is IFT?
How IFT works
Clinical Applications
For sports, the benefit is to increase the effect of training and enhance performance. Typical uses are: muscle training to improve endurance performance; muscle training to support the strengthening of certain muscles or muscle groups in order to achieve desired changes to body proportions; sports training, covering - warm-up, strength, speed, power, resistance, endurance and recovery; rehabilitation in relation to sports injury.
How MIC works
31
What is MIC?
Low frequency nerve stimulation is known to be physiologically effective (as with TENS and EMS) and this is the key to IFT intervention. Unlike TENS however, which delivers intermittent pulses to stimulate surface nerves and block the pain signal, IFT delivers continuous stimulation deep into the affected tissue by using a 4000Hz carrier wave to overcome the skin impedance.
Microcurrent has shown to give very effective pain relief. In patient surveys over 90% of patients reported significant improvement. In many situations the changes can be long lasting and even permanent in some cases. The results of MIC can be seen after only a minute or so of treatment in most people.
MIC stands for MicroCurrent Stimulation and is a type of therapy where very low current is sent into the cells of the body. Microcurrent therapy uses extremely low-level electrical currents (microcurrents) to treat nerve and muscle pain, inflammation and other health challenges. Each tissue type in our body has its own signature electrical frequency, which may be disrupted by injury or disease. Microcurrent therapy simply restores normal frequencies within the cells, resulting in remarkable improvements in pain, inflammation and function.
IFT is believed to work by stimulating parasympathetic nerve fibres to give increased blood flow and oedema reduction and by passing currents across cell membranes; these currents vary depending upon the tissue involved.
By using particular frequencies in the range, different systems within the body can be stimulated or used to increase the blood supply, which in turn hastens the healing rate.
MIC is a physiological electric modality that increases ATP (energy) production in the cells of your body. Micro-current stimulation delivers tiny electrical impulses that mirror the body’s own natural bio electrical field. In most cases, treatment is virtually sub-sensory, with just a slight electrical tingling sensation. MIC is a very faint current that is so small, it is measured in millionths of an amp (microamps). Human cells generate a current that is in the micro amp range which is why some can’t feel it - the current is so low it doesn’t stimulate the sensory nerves. This dramatically increases the tissue’s healing rate.
Clinical Applications
At the cellular level, microcurrent therapy stimulates a dramatic increase in ATP, the energy that fuels all biochemical functions in the body. It also bumps up protein synthesis, which is necessary for tissue repair. The ensuing enhancement in blood flow and decrease in inflammation translates into reductions in pain and muscle spasms, as well as increased range of motion. Unlike TENS, which also use electrical currents to relieve pain, microcurrents are so weak that they don’t stimulate the sensory nerves, so you feel no shock-like sensations.

Incontinence is commonly associated with:
Urinaryejaculation.incontinence
can often be improved and can be cured in many cases. Urinary incontinence is treated differently according to the type and cause. Pelvic floor exercises are seen as the most effective way to prevent issues with incontinence. Yet, 1 in 3 women who are trying to perform pelvic floor exercises, do not know how or are unable to voluntarily exercise their pelvic floor muscle themselves and require assistance.
Incontinence is a widespread condition that ranges in severity from ‘just a small or occasional leak’ to the complete loss of bladder or bowel control. It can occur at any age but it is more likely to develop as you get older. Some people wrongly think that incontinence is a normal part of ageing or that it cannot be treated. This is unfortunate, as many cases can be successfully treated or significantly improved.
• Finding it difficult to empty your bladder or bowel
• Painful sex
• Needing to get to the toilet in a hurry or not making it there in time
• In men, this may be felt as a bulge in the rectum or a feeling of needing to use their bowels but not actually needing to go
• A •prolapse
• Accidentally losing control of your bladder or
In women, this may be felt as a bulge in the vagina or a feeling of heaviness, discomfort, pulling, dragging or dropping
• Accidentally leaking urine when you exercise, laugh, cough or sneeze
• Constantly needing to go to the toilet
Urinary incontinence is often a result of a weak or stretched pelvic floor muscle, which usually assists in supporting the abdominal and pelvic organs, helps to control bladder, bowel, provides support for the baby during pregnancy and assists in the birthing process, works with the abdominal and back muscles to stabilise and support the spine. In men, it is important for erectile function and

How Pelvic Floor Exercisers work Clinical Applications
It is the most common form of urinary incontinence and affects about 85-90% women suffering from incontinence.
• Health conditions such as diabetes, stroke, heart conditions, respiratory conditions, and prostate problems, and
Risk factors most commonly linked with urinary incontinence include:
There are different types of incontinence with a number of possible causes. The following are the most common:
• Specific types of surgery such as prostatectomy (removal of all or part of the prostate) and hysterectomy (removal of all or part of the uterus and/or ovaries)
STRESS INCONTINENCE - occurs during activities that increase abdominal pressure such as coughing, sneezing, laughing, lifting heavy objects or during physical activity.
• Neurological and musculoskeletal conditions such as multiple sclerosis and arthritis
• Some medications
It can affect anyone at any age, but it appears to be more prevalent in the elderly
URGE INCONTINENCE - occurs when the need to urinate comes on so quickly that you might fail to make it to the bathroom in time. Also known as an Overactive Bladder.
• Constipation
• Urinary tract infections
In urge incontinence pelvic floor exercisers work in a slightly different way. The electrical stimulation is designed to soothe your bladder muscles rather than exercise your pelvic floor. PFE uses a gentler, low frequency setting which promotes release of endorphins and reduces involuntary contractions of the bladder (detrusor) muscle.
MIXED - a combination of both Stress and Urge Incontinence
• Obesity
Like other muscles in your body, the pelvic floor can be strengthened with regular exercise. Building pelvic floor strength enables the muscles to better support your pelvic organs, improves your bladder and bowel control and can stop accidental urine, faeces or wind leakage. It can also reduce your risk of prolapse, improve your recovery from childbirth and gynaecological surgery, and increase your sexual pleasure.
• Pregnancy (both pre- and post-natal women)
• Reduced mobility preventing you from getting to or using the toilet
Electrical Muscle Stimulators can play a vital role in educating women and men about their pelvic floor and the sensation they should feel when doing pelvic floor exercises. Electrical Pelvic Floor Exercisers (PFE) offer a non-invasive method of producing contraction of muscles via a gentle stimulation to the pelvic floor through a discreet probe or electrode pads when they are placed close to the nerve that controls pelvic floor muscle. This current then passes into the nerve fibres controlling that part of the muscle stimulating it to contract. So electrical stimulation (EMS) artificially activates a muscle for you enabling you to develop your own muscle control. These contractions exercise the muscles and, as with any kind of exercise if performed regularly, build strength and tone.
In young women, the prevalence of incontinence is usually low, but prevalence peaks around menopause, with a steady rise there-after into later Moderatelife. and severe bother have a prevalence ranging from about 3% to 17%. Severe incontinence has a low prevalence in young women, but rapidly increases at ages 70 through 80. Although a majority of women have symptoms of stress type, urge incontinence (including lesser degrees of urge incontinence) tends to be considerably more bothersome than similar degrees of stress incontinence.
A recent clinical trial carried out on the TensCare itouch Sure has been conducted in the US with excellent results. The chart bellow provides the results from the clinical trial.
The prevalence of incontinence in men of all ages is certainly lower than that for women. Large studies have indicated that about 3% to 11% overall, with urge incontinence accounting for 40% to 80% of all male patients. Stress incontinence accounts for less than 10% of cases and is attributable to prostate surgery, trauma, or neurological injury. Incontinence in men increases with age and appears to rise more steadily than it does in women. That is, there are no spikes in prevalence similar to those that occur for women around menopause. However, the estimates for severe incontinence in men in their 70’s and 80’s is still only about half of that in women. Men are also less likely to speak with a health care professional about UI, so UI in men is probably far more common than statistics show.
Urinary incontinence is a significant health problem with considerable social and economic impact.
