leroydb 0 #1 November 20, 2004 I have been using the GF-3 TENS unit for therapy on my lower back. (TENS stands for Trancutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulator) I have been using this along with a higher end machine at my physical therapyst. It seems that about 2 days after each treatment I feel a signifigant improvement. Has anyone else any expertise/practical use in this mode of pain blocking/beta endorphine releaseing? How long did it take for you to "heal" and not need the treatments anymore? (i know it would depend on the injury)Leroy ..I knew I was an unwanted baby when I saw my bath toys were a toaster and a radio... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jakee 1,610 #4 November 20, 2004 Right, okay. I just started getting this really bad pain in my back 2 or 3 weeks ago for no reason. I think its a pulled muscle because its mostly on one side but every time I think its gone I just twist a bit or whatever and it comes back so bad I can hardly breath, and then just aches for a day or two. Is that anything like yours? Fuck it I think I should just go to a doctor...Do you want to have an ideagasm? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
