Finally, an effective treatment for chronic pain that avoids the side effects and high cost of prescription drugs.

If you've ever recovered from a painful operation or live with the nagging pain of a chronic illness, chances are good you've tried several kinds of prescription pain medication. Along the way, you may have discovered that prescription drugs can have unwanted side effects when used to treat chronic pain.

The reason lies in the very nature of prescription drugs. These drugs are systemic, which means they flood the entire body with medicine instead of focusing on a specific problem area. Over time, they may impact your overall wellness and can even lead to serious side effects.

Remember, too, that prescription drugs are already very expensive and are likely to increase in cost. These skyrocketing costs are yet another reason to look for a more reasonable solution to the problem of chronic pain.

Electrotherapy: The answer to your chronic pain.

An effective alternative to prescription pain medication is electrotherapy, which uses small doses of electric current to promote natural pain relief and healing.

Electrotherapy is different from drug therapy because it targets chronic pain exactly where it occurs – an arthritic arm or elbow, a surgical incision, or a broken bone on the mend.

Electrotherapy has been used for decades to successfully treat chronic pain of all kinds. There are no known side effects. And because electrotherapy relieves chronic pain without the systemic side effects of prescription drugs, many patients feel more at ease when electrotherapy is their primary treatment for pain.

Modern electrotherapy units are easy to use and compact enough to provide quick and dependable pain relief at work, home or play. And measured against the high cost of prescription drugs, a TENS or MENS electrotherapy unit represents a small one-time investment that will give you relief from chronic pain for many years to come. In fact, the out-of-pocket cost for such a unit may be quite low because many insurance plans now cover the cost of an electrotherapy device.

When is electrotherapy an option?

Electrotherapy is an effective option for almost any kind of chronic pain.

Clinical studies have proven the effectiveness of TENS and MENS electrotherapy in treating the acute, chronic pain that often occurs after an operation or traumatic event. Electrotherapy promotes the healing of surgical wounds, bone and soft tissue injuries in:

• Low back surgery
• Hip replacement
• Foot surgery
• Hernia repair
• Gall bladder
• Kidney surgery
• Arthroscopic surgery

TENS and MENS electrotherapy have also been proven effective for patients suffering from many kinds of non-surgical chronic pain. As electrotherapy relieves their pain, patients report more restful sleep and are able to perform activities with family and friends that were once simply too painful to contemplate. Electrotherapy offers a genuine alternative to those otherwise resigned to a lifetime of taking prescription medications for conditions such as:

• Back pain
• Arthritis
• Migraine and tension headaches
• Neuralgia
• Sciatica
• Tendonitis
• Bursitis
• Phantom limb pain
