Tens Machines and Sciatica


Sciatica: What is it?

Sciatica is a pain that travels below the knee and may even reach as far as the foot. Symptoms may also include numbness and weakness of the lower leg muscles. Sciatica is caused by irritation of the main nerve (sciatic nerve) which passes from the lower spine. This irritation often occurs when the herniated disc presses against the nerves which go to make up the sciatic nerve. Slipped discs can be the trigger or sometimes tumors, enlarged vertabrae or even infections.

Sciatica: Does TENS work?

sciatica model Sciatica treatments may involve osteopathy oral pain killing drugs, TENS, or injections of anti-inflammatory medication. TENS or Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation is a non-invasive, drug-free method of pain relief. It is ideal for the treatment of sciatica. Pads are placed on or near the area of pain. TENS uses soothing pulses that are sent via the pads through the skin and along the nerve fibres. The pulses suppress pain signals to the brain. TENS also encourages the body to produce higher levels of its own natural pain killing chemicals called Endorphins and Encephalins.
