A Solid TENS Unit That Works with EMSI Electrodes
About 8 years ago, I was prescribed an EMSI TENS unit. I was sent a second, upgraded unit about 5 years ago. I received EMSI electrodes monthly, so I wound up with a stockpile (6 dozen) of electrodes. About 4 months ago, both units stopped working.With the nerve damage and pain after a foot surgery, I wanted to keep using a TENS unit to slow down the nerve damage, so I tried to buy a new EMSI unit and apparently that requires a doctor’s prescription since the EMSI site doesn’t have a shopping option.I found a used EMSI unit on eBay for $45, but I wasn’t excited about that option. I started trying to find a unit on Amazon that I thought I could use with all those electrode patches and I FOUND IT with this unit. For the cost, I was getting a new unit that could be returned if it wasn’t compatible with the electrodes.I’ve used it every day (3x daily) since it arrived. See the EMSI patches on my surgery site in use. This unit came with 1 pack of electrodes. You can see they are a bit larger than the EMSI patches. The unit has a very good, clear instruction booklet with it. And the unit is easy to use. I like the fact the controls are protected with covers. That prevents accidentally hitting the controls and getting a painful shock.All in all, I would buy this unit, particularly if you have EMSI electrodes you’d like to use. As I’m writing this review, the electrodes are attached to my calf hopefully stimulating blood flow to the nerve-damaged foot.

Great Option if You Plan to Use It Often. Extra Pads Are Worth It
I recently had hip surgery and was looking for something that could help with muscle soreness and recovery. I also deal with ongoing issues with my back, knee, and shoulder, so I knew this type of EMS/TENS unit would likely get a lot of use in my house.One of the reasons I specifically chose this package was because it included the extra electrodes, and I was willing to pay a little more for that. Replacement pads can add up over time, and since I plan to use this regularly on multiple areas, having a large supply already included made a lot of sense.The unit itself is compact and easy to use. You can adjust the intensity to whatever level feels comfortable, and the stimulation helps relax tight muscles and ease tension. The pads stick well and are easy to place on different areas like the back, shoulder, knee, or hip.Pros• Adjustable EMS/TENS settings for different comfort levels• Helpful for muscle soreness and tension• 48 electrodes included, which is great for long-term use• Pads adhere well and are easy to position• Compact and portable designCons• May take a little experimentation to find the best pad placement and settingsOverall Verdict:If you plan to use a TENS/EMS unit regularly, choosing the version with the extra pads is definitely worth it. This device is easy to use, versatile for different areas of the body, and the large supply of electrodes means you’ll be set for a long time.

Great compact Tens & Ems device and easy to use
Instructions are awful and confusing. Check YouTube before operating this device. No real way to know what mode to use, wave length, or in general how to identify what settings to use for pain relief. Again just no directions on what mode to use, or Tens vs Ems. Intensity settings is going to be different for most users. Used on my wife’s leg for knee pain and she did feel it was reducing her level of pain. Buy it, play with the settings, watch YouTube videos. Good quality and pretty harmless but be sure to place pads from 2-6 inches apart for best results. Start at 100 hz, tens, normal, 30 minutes. Set intensity to 2-3 on channel 1 or Channel 2 . Use only one channel and two pads initially 2-6” apart on muscle not bone. Be sure you clean your skin with soap and water and dry before applying the pads. You can also use channel 2 simultaneously and place pads in another area. Intensity should start at 2-3 and increase until you feel comfortable and don’t overdue it the first time.Then perhaps repeat the process in 6-8 hours or the next day. The key to pain relief is the word comfortable and no more. Muscle takes time to heal and the EMS process interrupts the pain signals to your brain providing temporary relief.As the muscle heals and relaxes from the electrical pulses the spasms will subside in time. Remember spasms are your bodies defense mechanism to prevent further injury to nerves and your spine.Your body limits movement around the injured area ie spine, knee, joints, neck or cervical area. Remember stay away from bones and focus on surrounding muscles where contractions take place.If you feel no relief within 4/5 days see a professional. It may be necessary to get an MRI or X-rays. Let pain be your best guide to getting urgent treatment.

Almost good enough
This is an easy to use and light weight stimulator. We were able to program our stimulation pattern into it, and many inexpensive stimulators have limited patterns that are not what we need. We needed 2 or 4, o4 6 Hz stimulation that is continuous. The only real downside is the amount of current is not very high. This is typical of this class of stimulator. More than enough current for a vigorous contraction in the arms. But not quite enough current for the leg muscles. So if you use the legs you might have less muscle activation than you would want.
