Tens Machine - Anyone have experience of using one?

[happy_talk]

thanks, but I have every faith in my ACPAT physio who knows my horse and her veterinary history. I would get her to treat my horse in the first instance, but not cheap without insurance help as need to hire transport for horse as well as treatment charge. I will however, try to contact her and see what she advises.

Hi All
This is just a message to set the record straight: I am Petra Sones and a fully trained practitioner using Faradic Impulse Therapy (mainly dealing with polo ponies) using the latest version of the equipment first introduced by Sir Charles Strong in the 40s and results published in the Veterinary Recorder of 1963 which does in no way compare to a TENS machine. A TENS machine interrupts the pain signal from nerve to brain and should not be used other than for short term relief! In inexperienced hands all equipment is likely to cause if not actual damage certainly stress to the horse and possibly injury to the operator! Please do not experiment with any machines until and unless you have discussed this with a Vet or qualified physiotherapist!
