2. TRANSCUTANEOUS NEUROSTIMULATION INFORMATION

The device works on the principle of transcutaneous electrical neurostimulation (TENS),
which enables you to relieve pain and soothe muscle tension. This device also helps to promote
venous return and to strengthen the muscle mass. The device has been specially designed to be
used at home. Transcutaneous electrical neurostimulation (TENS) is a non-analgesic drug therapy
the nerves. This stimulation brings the body to produce and disseminate endogenous analgesic-
painkilling substances (endorphins, enkephaline) whose function is to anesthetize the pain.
In case of pain or muscle tension, mini-electrical impulses in the nervous tissue may block the
transmission of pain signals to the nervous system and trigger the release of endorphins. You
can choose your programme among 11 preset TENS protocols on theapplication.
For the strengthening of your muscle mass, you can select a programme among 8 protocols
of electrical muscle stimulation (EMS). The electrical stimulator sends, via the electrodes placed
on the area to stimulate, electrical pulses causing a muscle contraction which strengthens the
muscle. It is controlled from the application. A diagram of the human body with treatment
zones helps you to position the electrodes correctly (see paragraph 10).
The application (Mytens) is available on the App Store or Google play. The app operates on IOS,
Android platforms (IOS 8.0, Android 5.0).
Intended use
The device designed to be used for temporary relief of pain associated with sore and aching
muscles in the shoulder, waist, back, neck, upper extremities (arm), and lower extremities (leg)
due to strain from exercise or normal household work activities. It should be applied to normal,
