Why aren't BioStim® TENS & EMS units connected to mains electricity?

The advantages of BioStim® being battery powered are many, and fall into four broad categories:

1. Safety is vastly improved when a 240 volt energy supply is not employed, as it:

  • Eliminates the chance of 'earth shock'
  • Greatly reduces the chance of burns.

2. Cost to produce and sell is minimized as excessive circuitry to avoid electrocution is not required.

3. Portability is offered, so the user can have treatment where, when and for as long as required.

4. The flexibility of therapy gained from this portability enables:

Sustained Application - Only portable treatment can offer therapy 24 hours per day - which is the most effective way to apply pain relief and healing (ie. at a low intensity over long periods of time).

Pre-emptive Treatment - With portable equipment the user can have it on hand to apply stimulation for pain relief before the pain starts. (This is especially true with long term pain that has a predictable pattern of rise and fall.)

Controlled Doses - Only the feature of portability affords the user the ability to go about their normal activities and have several treatments of a regulated length of time, without altering their entire day to fit in with treatment.

Evening Application - Only a portable stimulation system allows the user to be treated while sleeping. Especially useful for those with painful conditions that become worse at night, or early in the morning.

Fault Finding

I can't feel any pulses and the light doesn't flash.

I'm having trouble turning the controls.

The light is flashing, but I can't feel any impulses.

The pulses feel like they're stinging me.

I have to turn it up more than I used to.

I can't open the battery compartment.
