[TMIC] TENS
A few weeks ago when my physio therapist was here I had a spasm in my right leg One could see my muscles protruding out of my leg. Anyway she said she was happy to see it. I certainly didn't share her feelings. She then asked me if she could correspond with my neuro. I asked her why, It was then that she mentioned TENS Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation. She faxed a request for TENS My Neuro said that I was receiving the maximun meds my body could endure and gave her his blessing. My Physio was here yesterday and we tried it. It sure felt good very relaxing. She said it would help confuse my my pain nerves. thus reducung or eliminating my pain when I get a spasm. The purpose of this email is to ask one and all first if they have ever heard of it and secondly if so what were the results. thank you lol to all with TM.
Re: [TMIC] TENS
Gerry, I know that some on here use a TENS machine. Can't recall just who it might be though. I had physio person use TENS machine on me back in 1990 for herniated disc problems. Then in 1991 to 1992 and again in 1994 for 2 different car accidents. It really helped back then as it relaxed the muscles. Glad to hear it is helping you too.

[TMIC] Tens Unit
I have used the tens unit since Tm invited itself into my body. Have found it to be very helpful. Am not aware of pain as much and it does help with my legs. Give it a try.

[TMIC] TIMS
TINS, TEMS, whatever you call it, really did wonders for me after an auto accident in 01 but when I tried it with the TM I was in intense pain for 2 or 3 days afterwards. I tried it one more time and it was just so painful afterwards that I didn't want to do it again. I tried it near the TM area and also on my legs. It felt good on my legs but it never made any improvements. I just spent a lot of money. I'd try it again if I thought that it might make a difference. I'm glad that it worked/works for some.
