1. Explanation of Pain
Pain is a warning system, a way for the body to tell us
that something is wrong. Pain is important, without it, ab
-
normal 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 differ
-
ent nerves that travel up the spinal cord to the brain. The
pain message is then interpreted, referred back and the
pain is felt.
2. Explanation of TENS
Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) is a
non-invasive, drug-free method of controlling pain. TENS
uses tiny electrical impulses sent through the skin to nerves
to modify your pain perception. TENS does not cure any
physiological problem, and it only helps control pain. TENS
does not work for everyone, but for most patients it is effec
-
tive in reducing or eliminating pain, allowing them to return
to normal activities.
