| transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation |
This treatment method is often used as a post-operative analgesic. Sterile, gelled electrode patches are applied to the skin locally. A battery is then connected to generate either continuous or intermittent stimulation. TENS treatment stimulates nerve fibers only. This is not a replacement treatment for acupuncture as the acupuncture points are disregarded in favour of the site of pain.
