TENS1 • Fast TENS (medical program)
Program also called
conventional TENS
, used for analgesic purposes; its
purpose is to induce the organism into blocking pain at the spine, in accordance
with the “Gate Control Theory” by Melzack and Wall. Pain impulses leave part
of the body (for example the hand) and run along the nerve tracts (through
small-diameter nerve fibres) until they reach the central nervous system where
the impulses are interpreted as pain. Conventional TENS activates large-
diameter nerve fibres, blocking the path of small-diameter nerve fibres at the
spine. Therefore, this action is mainly taken against the symptom: to simplify it
further, the wire transmitting pain information is obstructed.
Conventional TENS is a current that can be used to treat
general daily pain
. The
average number required to benefit from the treatment is 10/12 per day (no
contraindications in doubling this amount).
The program can be repeated at the end of the session for particularly
persistent pain. Due to the nature of the impulse the patient may experience
an addictive effect, meaning that the impulse will be felt less and less: if
necessary, the intensity can be increased by one level to counter this effect.
Session duration: 40 minutes (no less than 30/40 minutes), in a single phase.
Electrodes’ positioning:
form a square above the painful area as shown in
Figure1
.
Intensity: to be adjusted in order to have a good solicitation of the stimulated
part, but not over the pain threshold.
TENS2 • TENS endorfinico (programma medicale)
Questo tipo di stimolazione produce due effetti in relazione al posizionamento
degli elettrodi: posizionando gli elettrodi in zona dorsale con riferimento foto

, favorisce la produzione endogena di sostanze
morfinosimili che hanno la proprietà di innalzare la soglia di percezione del
dolore. Con posizionamento elettrodi formando un quadrato sopra la zona
dolente come

, produce un effetto vascolarizzante; l’azione di
vascolarizzazione produce un aumento della portata arteriosa con un
conseguente effetto positivo sulla rimozione delle sostanze algogene ed un
ripristino delle condizioni fisiologiche normali.
Durata: 30 minuti in una sola fase, frequenza giornaliera.

soggette a stati infiammatori.
