Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation

The ATHELITE Clinic offers TENS therapy — a safe, non-invasive, and drug-free method of pain relief that can be an effective part of your recovery plan. Whether you’re dealing with acute injury pain, post-operative discomfort, or chronic muscle tightness, TENS therapy may help reduce pain and improve function so you can get back to doing what you love.

​

TENS delivers low-voltage electrical impulses through electrodes placed on the skin near the area of pain. These gentle pulses stimulate the nerves in the affected area, helping to interrupt pain signals sent to the brain and encouraging the release of endorphins — your body’s natural painkillers.
