Pain is a warning system and the body ’s method of telling us that something is wrong. Pain is important; without it abnormal conditions may go undetected, causing damage or injury to vital parts of our bodies. Even though pain is a necessary warning signal of trauma or malfunction in the body, nature may have gone too far in its design. Aside from its value in diagnosis, long-lasting persistent pain serves no useful purpose. Pain does not begin until coded message travels to the brain where it is decoded, analyzed, and then reacted to. The pain message travels from the injured area along the small nerves leading to the spinal cord. Here the message is switched to different nerves that travel up the spinal cord to the brain. The pain message is then interpreted, referred back and the pain is felt.

Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) is a non-invasive, drugfree method of controlling pain. TENS Units use tiny electrical impulses sent through the skin to nerves to modify your pain perception. In most patients it is effective in reducing or eliminating the pain, allowing for a return to normal activity.

In many patients, the reduction or elimination of pain lasts longer than the actual period of stimulation (sometimes as much as three to four times longer). In others, pain is modified while stimulation actually occurs.

TENS Units are used for many types of pain including Rheumatoid and Osteo-arthritis, Back pain, Menstrual Pain, Labour Pain, Peripheral Nerve Injuries, Shingles, Headache and Migraine, Cancer Pain, Trigeminal Neuralgia, Phantom Limb Pain, Sports Injuries, Sciatica, Aching Joints, Post Operative Pain, Muscular Pain, Whiplash and Neck Injury and many others.

It is simple and easy to use. Four Electrode Pads are placed near or around the areas in pain. Because it is Dual Channel, you can use 2 or all 4 Electrode Pads at the same time. You control the pulse width, pulse rate, and intensity and in just 20 minutes per day you will experience dramatic pain relief!

Finally check out our Additional Pain Relief units, such as the LG-US1 Portable Home Ultrasound Unit. Ultrasound Units help speed the healing process by reducing inflammation and swelling. The LG-US1 Ultrasound Unit and LG-7000 TENS Unit make for excellent combination therapy. Many of our customers like to utilize both.

Optional Items you may wish to order with the LG-7000 Unit are:

1. Electrode Preparation Spray which prolongs the life of the electrodes (pays for itself) by hydrating the electrode pad as well as removing body oil which erodes the electrode pads.
2. Battery and Recharger which is an excellent option which is a 9 volt battery and charger which will save you money in the long run and help you get the most out of your new TENS Unit. You will not have to buy more 9 volt batteries that can get expensive.
3. Extra Electrode Pads The unit comes with 4 Electrode Pads that last 20-30 times. At some point you will need additional electrodes so be sure to purchase some extras today!

"Great little home unit - This little TENS unit is a great device with a wide range of settings. I regularly go to a chiropractor that uses a large professional TENS unit that does wonders. This little thing does just as good as that unit! I'm very impressed with it and would recommend it to anybody looking for a small, two lead (four pad) unit."

"Gives relief to osteo arthritis pain - I got this for my husband who has osteo arthritis. It definitely breaks the pain cycle for him, giving relief for a while. This stretches the time between when he needs to take his Celebrex and when he actually takes it."

The LG-7000 simple and easy to use. It is important that you:

• Place Electrodes on or around where you are experiencing pain
• Change the batteries when needed
• Vary the controls and settings (both the frequency and voltage)
• Set the proper duration and intensity of the stimulation (which depends on the location and type of pain)
• Follow instruction manual

Low Frequency: The lower frequencies, 2-5 Hz, are believed to cause the body to react. The reaction creates natural painkillers, or endorphins. The endorphins block the pain naturally and while popular, this isn't the usual method of using TENS.

High Frequency: For more intense pain, higher frequencies, 90-130 Hz, work to actually interrupt those pain signals being sent to the brain. This is the most common use for the machine and while you start slow, it's not uncommon to need to up the frequency to find the best block.
