for your con dence in us! The TDP pain therapy unit that you have purchased
is a top quality product from MEDISANA. In order to achieve the desired ef-
fect with your MEDISANA TENS TDP pain therapy unit in the long term, we
recommend that you read the following information on its use and maintenance
carefully.
Stimulation current can be used as follows:
1. to ght pain (TENS = Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation)
2. to build up the muscles (EMS = Electrical Muscle Stimulation)
3. as electro-acupuncture.
TENS is understood as electrical nerve stimulation through the skin.
Pain is a natural and important warning signal of our body telling us that “some-
thing is wrong”. If the reason for pain is diagnosed, but cannot or can only par-
tially be removed, a long-lasting, persistent pain may evolve (= chronic pain).
This pain is therefore useless in its original form as a warning signal and can
largely affect the life of the person suffering and possibly cause consequential
effects such as tension, depression or reduced quality of life.
Chronic pain can be treated with different methods: e.g. with medicaments or
operations, but also with alternative methods like acupuncture or TENS that are
free of side-effects.
On the one hand, the TENS treatment can block pain signals by interrupting
the transmission of pulses through the skin to the painful parts by means of
electric impulses. The signal “pain” is not passed on to the brain and thus not
felt as pain.
On the other hand, special TENS applications activate the bodys control mech-
anisms. Gentle electric currents make the body release so-called “endorphins”
that serve to reduce pain. The pain is thus stopped, eased or removed by the
body itself. This electrical stimulation cannot remove the causes or cure the dis-
ease, but change the painful feeling. Painless conditions or pain relief can help
the chronically suffering person have new, positive experiences, from which he
or she can gain power and energy.
Some people experience severe discomfort when exposed to frequencies un-
der 10 Hz (that is, 10 pulses per second). The burst program generates pulse
packets (“burst”) with frequencies of 80 to 100 Hz instead of a single pulse.
With different EMS applications, muscles in the body can be stimulated, which
are e.g. slackened after an operation, not trained comprehensively or insuf -
ciently or which are tensioned. In the process, electric pulses cause slight mus-
cle contractions that can stimulate the muscular system “passively” (= without
the muscles itself acting).
Thank you
