TENS vs. EMS: Understand the Difference

What is the difference between TENS and EMS units?

While many believe that TENS and EMS are just variations on the same technology. In fact, TENS and EMS are two features, they have similarities and differences.

TENS unit

This stands for electrical nerve stimulation through the skin. It involves low-energy charges that stimulate the nervous system of the body and basically soothes all pain by interrupting messages sent to the brain's receptors.

EMS units

EMS stands for electromechanical stimulation, EMS targets actual muscle tissue, makes it relax and contract with each electrical impulse.

#Briefly about TENS and EMS:

What does TENS mean?

Subcutaneous nerve irritation with electrical impulses

What does EMS mean?

Electro-mechanical stimulation.

#Similarity between TENS and EMS:

Both provide low voltage pulses to excite.

#TENS vs EMS - the main difference

TENS stimulates nerves - Essence, flooding a pathway with pain-low level stimulation stimulation from reaching the brain

EMS causes muscles to shrink - by mimicking the potential of action from the central nervous system

#What is TENS used for?

Chronic and acute pain relief.

Some examples of TENS uses:

• Backache
• Arthritis
• Carpal tunnel syndrome
• Footsore
• Labor pain
• Multi sclerosis
• Body aches and pains

#What is EMS used for?

• Increased blood circulation
• The purpose of rehabilitation
• Strengthen muscles
• Prevent muscle atrophy
• Muscle relaxation
• Cosmetics that tighten muscles

#TENS vs EMS: Which one is right for me?

Two machines have different purposes, so you must choose the right device.

• If you are looking for ways to build muscle as part of a training program, a TENS unit will not work for you.
• Similarly, if you are looking for some chronic back pain relief - an EMS unit may not be the best option for you.

#Equipment combines TENS and EMS

There are several machines that combine both TENS and EMS on the market.

This is a desirable alternative for anyone who wants to use both TENS and EMS. Meaning they only need to buy a single device, compared to two separate devices.

People who like to take a vacation, when they go on business, visit friends, etc. just have to bring one device. This is another advantage of having a single device that is portability.
