Anybody ever use a TENS device for pain?

6. I got the one for $29 bucks at the local Rite-Aid

It's kind of odd to use at first, and it's probably easier if someone helps you position it correctly with the pads.

I know it sounds like nutty stuff, but it worked for me. I got the one ICY HOT makes. I've heard the others that are a little more expensive work better, but I wasn't ready to invest a whole lot in case it was woo.

Well, consider my experience - it for certain is not woo. It takes a while for the relief to set in, and you have to adjust it, but my GOD, once you get it just right, it is kind of nuts how well it melts the pain from a throb, to a mild ache to ... nothing.

It really does work. I was pleasantly surprised.

Here is the science behind it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transcutaneous_electrical_nerve_stimulation

I don't know where you live, but here are some links:

If it helps 1 person out of 10 so they don't have to be on drugs, it's worth it.

I might get this one for my own Dad with bad knees: http://www.cvs.com/shop/home-health-care/other-daily-living-aids/electrotherapy/omron-electrotherapy-pain-relief-device-pm3030-skuid-906989
