6. INFORMATION ABOUT
THE PROGRAMME
SETTINGS
Each programme
combination of Frequency and Pulse
Width settings which allow for different
sensations through the electrode pads
and suppress pain in different ways.
• Frequency (measured in Hz -
pulses per second)
PAIN GATE: A high frequency of 110
Hz is good at blocking pain signals.
ENDORPHINE RELEASE:
frequency of 4 or 10 Hz allows for the
release of endorphins, the body's
natural morphine-like substances.
• Pulse Width (measured in μs -
millionths of a second)
The perfect TENS unit has pulse
widths of 50 to 250 μs. Generally
speaking, the higher the pulse width,
the more "aggressive" the stimulation
feels, and eventually, if the pulse width
is set high enough, it will usually elicit a
muscle contraction, which is typically
