TENS 7000 Digital TENS Unit with Accessories - TENS Unit Muscle Stimulator for Back Pain Relief, General Pain Relief, Neck Pain, Sciatica Pain Relief, Nerve Pain Relief

Ive had really bad lower back pain that resurfaced and is probably worse than it was a year ago. A year ago the physical therapist put me on a TENS device every visit and I feel it was a huge help. This go around I figured I would my own unit. I feel like this TENS 7000 Unit was better than one at the physical therapist. A few times I was able to max out the machine at the PT but this device Ive only been able to handle 50% power. ITS STRONG! I also love that I can adjust the different sides, pulses, frequencies etc... WELL WORTH THE MONEY and heres to HOPEFULLY some relieved back pain.

We bought this to try with ear clips for the vagus nerve for long nineteen. Once I accidentally turned the dial the wrong direction, as did one of my teens, so I returned the unit because it was too easy to make a mistake with it. The battery that came with the unit was DEAD. A bonus is that is is eligible for FSA tax free spending. If I did not need a TENS device to use with the ear clips, this would have been fine, but for my purpose I did not want to risk it. It is nice unit, but after shocking ourselves twice, I decided to return it to purchase one with up / down arrows.

I’ve had back pain for over a year. I fell off the stairs coming into our house around November 2021. Since then I’ve had back pain to varying degrees, sometimes so bad I could barely walk, barely turn over in the bed and I couldn’t even stand up from a seated position and walk. I’d have to get up and get used to the pain and once I got going it was better. My back was spasming all the time. The pain was there 24/7. If I did something like go shopping and walk a lot or clean house then for two or three days the pain would be a lot worse. I’ve tried the chiropractor, steroids, muscle relaxers, and physical therapy. The strongest thing I took for pain was Ultram. I didn’t want to fall in that dark pit of getting hooked on something. Things started to turn around November of last year when I started to go to physical therapy. For some of my visits they would do dry needling and hook a tens unit up to it. Yes it hurt. But I was already hurting all the time so it was worth it. The first time was the worst. I left hurting worse than when I got there but I wanted to give it a chance. Two days later I did the dry needling again with the tens unit. That next morning when I got up most of the pain was gone. But it didn’t last but about 18 hours and it came back. It was such a relief though to be pain free even if just for 18 hours. Unfortunately insurance is not going to pay for me to do that forever but it gave me an idea. I researched and bought my own tens unit and I chose this one. This thing works miracles. I am pretty much pain free all the time. And yes it delivers the exact same thing I got in physical therapy just without the needles. I can vouch for it. The price is affordable for almost anyone. I use this every night for about 45 minutes. I can’t imagine going without it. I’m not a salesperson and I’m not getting any money for posting this. I just thought this could help someone else. If you have any kind of implant like a pacemaker you have to clear it with your doctor before using. The pads can be used multiple times and they are not that expensive. The ones I have on now I’ve used about 8-10 times. I’m sure if you were to put it on a hairy part of your body they wouldn’t last as long. It uses a 9 volt battery. You can use it up to three hours a day. My sister gets up in the morning, puts the pads on and leaves them on all day using it off and on. That way she isn’t taking the pads on and off. If you are out of options maybe this could help you.

I love this machine. It really helps with muscle soreness especially if you’re hitting the weights hard in the gym

Its works so great I take it to work with me. Awesome product

My husband and I have previously owned several other 7000 model TENS machines of this brand, both of which still work, but are about 12 years old now and are getting a bit worn out, so we decided to purchase a new one. This new edition of model 7000 is essentially the same in the way it looks externally and how it functions as the older version, so if you are replacing a worn-out 7000 model, this upgraded version will not confuse you with unnecessary changes in its interface. What is different is that the manufacturer has added some helpful new options for settings, the most significant to me, and the only one that Ive opted to try out so far, is that if you choose to go to sleep using this TENS unit, it will turn itself off after about an hour, which the previous model did not do. This is an excellent feature because it spares the battery, which saves the user money because 9-volt batteries are not cheap. This device comes with a set of leads and 4 electrodes as a complete starter kit. The electrodes lasted me a total usage time of about 6 to 7 hours before they wore out. That is not in my experience a terrific amount of time for TENS electrodes to last. Ive had other brands of electrodes that fit both this model and my older model of this TENS machine which have lasted a total of about 9 or 10 hours. Note that if you use this machine at all frequently, you will want to immediately order some more electrodes so you wont run out. The 4 electrodes included in this kit is not a lot. The basic principle of how this TENS machine functions, via mild electrical stimulation of muscles, is no different from any other TENS machine. This is good news because this particular brand is quite reasonably priced at the lower end of the scale of cost for TENS machines. All TENS machines are extremely helpful for relieving muscle pain. And for people who suffer from fibromyalgia, in particular, this home therapy is far more effective and a lot safer than taking dangerous prescription drugs with terrible side effects, such as Lyrica. As another example of utilizing this TENS machine rather than relying on dangerous prescription pain drugs, I recently have endured an excruciating bout of shingles, and this TENS unit has been a lifesaver in helping me to bear the terrible pain. It doesnt so much as directly turn off the burning, electric-shock, neuropathic pain that is such a devastating feature of shingles, and which anti-inflammatory OTC medications and prescription opioids are ineffective at controlling. Instead, in my experience, it works to distract the brain from experiencing the neuropathic pain of shingles either entirely, or mutes the pain to a bearable level. As such, it can simultaneously act not only as a form of temporary pain relief, but functions as a crucial tool to help prevent the development of postherpetic neuralgia. Note that TENS should be an adjunct treatment, and not a replacement for the antiviral, prescription drug prescribed for shingles which, to be effective, must be taken within 72 hours of the outbreak of the first set of blisters from the shingles rash. Sadly, statistically, this drug has only a 50-50 chance of mitigating a shingles attack, preventing a future attack, and preventing postherpetic neuralgia. When it comes to preventing the terrible curse of postherpetic neuralgia, its important, therefore, to have as many options as possible on the table. This TENS option is so inexpensive, and so completely safe, that one essentially has nothing to lose by using it as an adjunct to taking the antiviral medication. Doctors who specialize in the treatment of chronic pain have indicated that a main reason for the development of chronic pain, after the original cause of the pain has been healed in the body, is that dysfunctional neural pathways have become established when pain lasts longer than 8 to 12 weeks after the original cause of the pain has been healed. This is the point at which doctors will change the diagnosis of the pain from acute to chronic. Utilizing a TENS unit can help prevent those dysfunctional pathways from becoming entrenched. And if one already has long-established chronic pain, using a TENS unit can be a way to help retrain those dysfunctional pathways. I also believe that, given that using a TENS unit like this one is helpful for the nerve pain of shingles, which is a disease caused by the chicken pox virus which damages nerves, that TENS might also potentially be an excellent, inexpensive and convenient home remedy for the mitigation and potential outright healing of other types of chronic, neuropathic pain as well, if the pain is the type that is post-trauma, rather than pain from ongoing, uncontrolled disease. But even in the case of the latter, a TENS unit can be an excellent adjunct therapy when dangerous prescription drugs are doing an ineffective job at alleviating the devastating suffering caused by neuropathic pain.

I recently purchased this TENS unit for my back pain and I am extremely satisfied with my purchase. I particularly love the simplicity of this device and the analog dials make it easy to adjust the intensity of the stimulation. The controls are straightforward and intuitive, making it easy to use. The unit is compact and portable, so I can take it with me on the go. I highly recommend this TENS unit to anyone looking for a reliable and effective way to manage their back pain.

I’m giving this the 5 star review that it deserves because It works the way a battery powered tens unit should. zBUT, there is no auto shut-off. So, if you don’t turn it off right away, or if you fall asleep and your “massage” ends, the battery continues to drain. I wasted batteries this way until I bought a rechargeable tens unit that turns itself off when my treatment time is over. Tens units are a huge blessing for pain relief.

This product is great and I use it all the time!

I have debilitating menstrual pain, and I have a natural resistance to pain killers (including narcotics and blood thinners). In the 20 years Ive endured the red parade, this little thing is the ONLY way Ive gotten relief. For the first time, Im able to function like a normal human being (albeit with the cord and unit stuck to my belt). It definitely feels weird at first, and it might take you some time to figure out the right placement and settings for you. And keep in mind that layers of fatty tissue will reduce its effectiveness on the muscles underneath. My units been working well for a while, though its needed battery changes every other month or so. And if it ever does fail due to wear, Ill readily buy another. Another bonus seems to be that the node adhesive doesnt irritate sensitive skin. Well, at least it doesnt irritate mine. The case it comes with is also the ideal size for travel, either to work or further.
