How does TENS work?

  • Gate control theory
  • Endorphin release

How it Works

Tija sends light electrical pulses into the body through the skin via electrodes which are placed over peripheral nerves. The TENS unit works by sending high-frequency electrical signals that are both continuous and mild to block out the pain signals being delivered to the brain. The Tija device is designed with specific pulse frequency and pulse length that are suitable for its intended use. When these pain signals are halted, pain is not felt by the reactive area and the patient gets relief. Tija works in two ways

Gate Control Theory

This theory states that stimulation of nerves carrying non-painful sensations (called A-beta nerve fibers) closes a neurological “gate” in the spinal cord that reduces transmission from pain nerves (called A-delta and C nerve fibers) to the brain. By preventing pain signals from reaching the brain, the perception of pain decreases. An illustration of the Melzack and Wall theory is shown below :

Endorphin release

Endorphin release Tens drives the motor nerves to produce small repetitive contractions that help activate the natural pain control response by releasing beta endorphins and ease the pain felt by the patient.
