How does T.E.N.S. Ultima 20 Work?

• T.E.N.S. works by stimulating your body's own natural defenses against pain.
• The unit produces a gentle stimulus through pads normally placed over the area of pain. This stimulus helps the body to produce natural pain relievers called endorphins.
• The correct positioning of the pads is important. Some people feel immediate benefit from T.E.N.S. However some may only achieve benefit after repeated treatment sessions and over an extended period of time.
• Ultima 20 is designed for simple and easy pain relief.
