5. HOW MAX POWER RELIEF WORKS
How does it work?
The OMRON Max Power Relief is a powerful TENS device that provides relief of chronic,
acute* and arthritic pain.
Scientific theory suggests that TENS therapy may work in several ways:
1. Gentle electrical pulses move through the skin to nearby nerves to block or shut out
the pain message from ever reaching the brain from the source of the pain.
2. Gentle electrical pulses increase the production of the body’s natural pain killers,
such as endorphins.
3. Blood circulation improves as muscles contract and relax with the flow of the
electrical stimulation.
* Acute pain refers to sore or achy muscles due to strain from exercise or normal household and work activities.
