How long should I use my BioStim® TENS for? And how often?

You can use BioStim® TENS for as long as you need to. Some people use their BioStim® TENS for 15 minutes before they get out of bed in the morning, and others use it all day and night to relieve severe, chronic pain.

Rule of Thumb

Use your BioStim® TENS for one hour, then turn it off and see how long the pain relief lasts. Reapply your BioStim® TENS for another dose of one hour when pain levels start to increase. Using this method, you will receive the exact dosage you reqire for adequate pain relief for your particular injury or condition. If you find pain relief is inadequate with a one hour dose, apply the TENS for two hours and use the same system as above.

You Might Like to Use '3L Stimulation'

Many BioStim® TENS users have tried this particular method with great success. It is particularly useful for those with chronic, painful conditions like arthritis. In fact, many people use this setting while in bed, finding it very useful for helping them get to sleep. 3L stands for LOW pulse rate, LOW intensity and LONG duration of use. Set the rate dial to 'L' (or minimum on an Analgesic+2 unit), the intensity dial to a level where you can just feel the pulses tingling (around 1.5 - 2 on the dial), and use your BioStim® TENS for at least two hours at a time. Re-apply as necessary.
