How Does the TENS Unit Work? The TENS unit is an important tool in treating TMD, or Temporomandibular Joint Disorder. TENS (transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation) units are used to transmit electrical impulses through the skin into the nerves beneath. Many people who suffer from chronic pain use a portable TENS units for pain management.
TENS is the acronym for Transcutaneous Electrical Neural (or Nerve) Stimulation. The small electrical currents of TENS are adjusted to send stimulating pulses over the surface of the skin and into nerve endings. Those pulses help to decrease pain by blocking pain signals from reaching the brain.MS differs from TENS in that it is designed to stimulate muscle motor nerves, while TENS is designed to stimulate sensory nerve endings to help decrease pain. Contraction/relaxation of muscles has been found to effectively treat a variety of musculoskeletal and vascular conditions.
