Looking for Physical Therapy device?
I have very bad tendonitis and cannot afford to keep going back to Physical Therapy, I’m looking into buying a TENS unit from a website (muscle stimulator), it looks and reads like the one did at physical therapy did.. and I just want to know if that is safe? Any physical therapists out there to help? (oh and I haven’t been to Phys thrpy for a yr and a half)
They are generally safe, but certainly let the buyer be ware.
It may certainly help with pain control, but it will not get rid of the tendonitis.
I’d generally don’t recommend TENS for tendonitis (I dont’ really recommend it for anything), but if you’ve had good relief with it in the past, no reason why you can’t do it now….unless you have a pacemaker.
However, the SAFEST way to do things is to contact a physical therapy clinic, have your physician write you an order for PT and for a TENS unit (we stock some in the clinic). Often, it can be billed to your insurance (EMPI generally works well with physicians and insurance companies) and then go see the PT one time to learn how to use it.
