NeuroTrac TENS

TENS will not work for every user and it does not cure problematic physiological conditions; it only helps to control the pain perception.

However physiotherapists and doctors throughout the world prescribe TENS extensively and it is generally seen to work for the majority of users. There are millions of small nerve fibres throughout the body and it only requires a few impulses to produce chronic pain. In addition to small fibres, which allow the sensation of pain to be felt, the body is also made up of larger diameter nerve fibres. These larger nerve fibres transmit less unpleasant sensations such as touch or warmth, assisting us to form an impression of our environment. Stimulating the larger nerve fibres using TENS may have the effect of inhibiting the transmission of pain along the smaller nerve fibres to the spinal cord (known as the ‘Pain Gate Theory’).

Three different treatment modes provide maximum flexibility for pain relief.

Conventional TENS/normal mode
This mode enables the user to select any rate between 2 Hz – 200 Hz and a pulse width between 50 µS – 300 µS. This is the most frequently used of the three modes. The most common selection is 80 Hz with a 200 µS pulse width.

Burst mode
This mode is comparable to the low rate TENS technique except that each low rate pulse is substituted for by a short BURST of 9 pulses (200 µS) at 150 Hz. It is a combination of conventional and low rate TENS. The burst mode is often referred to as acupuncture like TENS.

Modulation mode
This mode is designed to help prevent nerve accommodation that some patient’s experience. It is achieved by continuously cycling the pulse width and rate.
