Product description
Triple action TENS technology combined with soothing heat for at home pain relief.
OMRON HeatTens is a certified medical device for home-use which provides safe and drug-free pain relief. The HeatTens reduces and relieves pain, stiffness and numbness in the muscles and joints of the back, arms, legs, feet and shoulders.
The OMRON HeatTens is a powerful combination of two complementary therapies: TENS (transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation) technology and soothing heat. The heat relaxes the muscles and soothes pain whilst the TENS stimulates your body's natural pain-relieving mechanisms using electrical pulses which help to block pain messages, triggering the release of endorphins.
With the HeatTens you have the option of six pre-set automatic programmes (each for a dedicated body zone) or the option to customise your treatment in three simple steps: therapy choice, heat intensity and massage mode (tap, knead or rub). You are also able to alter the intensity settings during the treatment.
