he Hi-Dow wireless TENS/EMS system is a battery operated pulse generator that sends electrical impulses from a remote control to a receiver with electrodes attached. The electrodes are placed on the body to stimulate the nerves and feel gentle electronic sensation instead of pain. The receiver with electrodes attached to them adheres to the skin and receives the pulse signal and sensations.
The Hi-Dow TENS/EMS has a patented series of waveforms and selectable pattern of mode modulations. All of the 4 separate channels work differently because of their waveform patterns.
What is TENS?
The more precise term is Transcutaneous (meaning “through the skin”) Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS). A TENS unit is an electrically powered device used to apply an electrical current to electrodes on a patient’s skin to relief pain associated with sore or aching muscles. TENS stimulates the nerves and confuses the pain signal they send to reduce pain.
What is EMS?
EMS stands for Electrical Muscle Stimulation. An EMS device is used to stimulate healthy muscles in order to improve muscle performance. EMS stimulates muscles and promotes blood flow that will improve muscle condition, reduce muscle atrophy and reduce pain.
