PENS / TENS Therapy
PENS/TENS therapy delivers targeted electrical pulses to relieve chronic pain, reduce muscle tension, and promote natural healing without medication.
Stimulate
PENS (Percutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) and TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) therapy offer a non-invasive, drug-free solution to manage pain and enhance recovery with the power of electrical stimulation. By delivering low-voltage electrical pulses through electrodes placed on or near the skin, these therapies disrupt pain signals to the brain, providing relief from chronic conditions like arthritis, back pain, or neuropathy, while also relaxing tense muscles and boosting circulation. TENS uses surface electrodes for broader application, while PENS involves shallow needle insertion for deeper, more targeted nerve stimulation, making it ideal for stubborn pain. Both are customizable, safe, and often performed in clinics or at home with portable devices, empowering patients to reclaim mobility and comfort. With minimal side effects and growing clinical support, PENS/TENS therapy is a versatile tool for anyone seeking lasting relief and a better quality of life.
The Process
It begins with a consultation where we evaluate your pain areas and determines the best approach—PENS for deeper nerve targeting or TENS for surface-level relief. For TENS, adhesive electrodes are placed on clean, dry skin over or near the pain site, while PENS involves inserting fine, sterile needles shallowly into the skin to reach specific nerves. The electrodes or needles are connected to a small, battery-powered device that delivers controlled electrical pulses, adjustable in intensity and frequency to suit your comfort and needs. Sessions typically last 20-60 minutes, during which you may feel a gentle tingling or tapping sensation but no significant discomfort. Afterward, the electrodes or needles are removed, and you can resume normal activities immediately, with no downtime. Regular sessions, often weekly, may be recommended to achieve sustained pain relief or muscle relaxation.
