Electrode pads are placed precisely on or near the pain area. Soothing pulses are sent from the tens unit, through the pads to the skin. The pulses then travel along the nerve fibers, suppressing pain signals to the brain. TENS can also encourage the body to produce higher levels of Endorphins and Encephalins - the bodies own natural pain killing chemicals!
