I have been going to Physical Therapy for back problems for the last three weeks. I have one more week to go and I am done. They have been using a tens unit and muscle stimulator along with a heat pack on my back. That and the exercises are helping ease up the pain in my back.
When I get there they do a deep tissue massage on my back. Then I have to lay down and do some exercises to stretch my back and leg muscles. I also do them at home to keep my back from stiffening up. After all that I sit with the tens unit and muscle stimulator on my back for 20 minutes.
I have been thinking of getting a tens unit and found a website online where they can be purchased for a lot cheaper than they would normally be. The website is Lgmedsupply.com and their prices compared to the original price are unbelievably cheap. The original price for a Tens Unit and Muscle Stimulator is $569 but Lgmedsupply.com's price is only $109! Wow that is pretty cheap!
A tens unit and muscle stimulator works by putting little pads on your back where the pain is, I am sure you can put it on other body parts as well such as the legs and arms too. You set the time on the machine and turn it up as high as you can stand it and then you feel little electric shocks in your back. It is like an electrical massage.
If you have been having severe back pain and are in the market for a tens unit or muscle stimulator then check out lgmedsupply.com and check out their cheap prices!
