Page 1 of 2 Updated/Revised 10/2016 Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) and neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation (NMES) devices TENS devices Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) is a noninvasive therapy indicated for the symptomatic relief from, and management of, chronic intractable pain and post-surgical and post-trauma acute pain. Mechanism of TENS Pain messages transmitted by the peripheral nervous system to the brain are electro-chemical in nature. Controlling or overriding these nociceptive impulses can bring about significant pain relief to patients. With a TENS system, a portable stimulator generates a current which flows through leads to electrodes placed in specific locations on the patient s skin.
