Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation

At Maw Physiotherapy, TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) is used as an effective and gentle method to help patients manage pain and improve recovery. The treatment works by sending small electrical pulses through the skin to stimulate the nerves in the affected area. These pulses help block pain signals from reaching the brain while also encouraging the release of endorphins, the body’s natural pain relievers. Depending on the condition, your physiotherapist at Maw Physiotherapy will carefully adjust the frequency and intensity of the treatment to ensure maximum comfort and effectiveness. TENS is often used alongside other hands-on therapies and exercises to help patients move better and heal faster.
