Introduction
The Vitalic Duo-T
ENS
Back Therapy Belt is an accessory designed for
use with the Duo-T
ENS
device by those who suffer from muscular tension
and lower back pain. Transcutaneous (through the skin) Electrical Nerve
Stimulation device, known as TENS, is a non-invasive therapy used to
relieve pain. Unlike strong pain medication, TENS does not cause nausea,
drowsiness or lead to dependence.
Reviewing the medical literature confirms the beneficial effects of
TENS therapy on relieving pain by stimulating muscles, nerve fibres and
acupuncture meridians to activate the body’s own pain relief mechanisms.
In many instances, TENS stimulation cannot cure the cause of the pain but
aids in relieving the discomfort.
