Video on how electricity, electrical charges, positive and negative charges, are being used to heal bones, non union fractures, and bed sores, decubitus ulcers electrically. Video explains the natural regeneration process the body goes through to heal itself naturally.
For some pain patients an analog tens unit is preferred over a digital tens unit. This video shows the difference between the two types of tens units and also how to use an analog tens unit. Bob discusses the reasons patients have a preference for the analog type tens unit and how to use analog tens units of different manufacturers. The basics of a tens unit are generally the same as this tens video points out.
For many patients with impaired, or poor vision, a digital tens unit is not functional since the patient can not see the small screen so the analog tens unit is preferred. The analog tens unit involves only touching and turning the buttons versus pushing buttons and watching a screen to see how to change the different functions such as rate, width, power, modulation, burst modes etc. The small tens unit screen is not easy to see, nor for many, easy to understand the many symbols showing how to work the tens unit. The analog tens unit has at most 5 buttons and one lever switch which once set may be never used again or, if used, very infrequently.
Pain machine, tens unit, tns machine, interferential therapy, whatever, how does a tens unit work? This short tens video details the way a tens unit reduces or eliminates pain. Pain is an impulse and whatever the mechanism is for moving the impulse from the area to the brain for perception is basically the same, no matter what the diagnosis is.
Since the introduction of the Infrex Plus combination Tens/Interferential unit, January 2009, we've been pleased to report that our experience has been patients can self treat as needed and go for longer and longer time periods, pain free.Those results from interferential treatment mode are what is called "carryover" or "residual" pain relief.
We think there are basically several biological reasons why we are seeing this occur -
Ability to treat when pain present, and as often as needed, for as long as needed
Prevention of reoccurrence of the "pain cycle" by self treatment options.
Treating Urinary Stress Incontinency With Interferential Therapy In A Private Home Setting
For many years urologists and physical therapists have used electrical stimulation techniques to eliminate stress incontinence. A variety of electrodes, some internal, some external have been used with varying degrees of success. It appears the incidence of women being affected more than men may be due to the anatomy of the female created for child bearing which alters the control mechanisms to prevent incontinency.
True stress incontinence is a situation where a patient cannot maintain normal passive
