4.3.2. TENS PROGRAMMES

Traditional transcutaneous neurostimulation programme :
A common transcutaneous neurostimulation programme is performed with a high frequency
stimulation. This stimulation is intended to block the transmission of the pain signal to the nervous
system. Generally, people use traditional transcutaneous neurostimulation for a session of about 30
minutes. It is possible to use these programmes for a variable period and frequency according to
what you want. It is normal to feel the effects of this programme more intensely during the stimula-
tion and to experience its decay after the end of the session. To gain in efficiency, it is necessary to
adjust the intensity of the programme, avoiding any painful or unpleasant sensation.
Burst transcutaneous neurostimulation programme :
A burst programme (Burst TENS) allows high frequency stimulation in the form of series of
impulses. It enables the release of endorphins. It is possible to use the transcutaneous neuro-
stimulation in bursts for 30 minutes. The frequency can be up to several times per day, 3 times
for example. For a sensation of strong stimulation, it is advisable to adjust the intensity of the
burst programme. An unpleasant feeling may then appear. You can also adjust the intensity of
the programme at a level leading to perceptible muscle contractions in the stimulation area.
These contractions are not dangerous. However, if you experience discomfort, it is advisable to
decrease the intensity of the programme, change or move the electrodes. The burst transcuta-
neous electrical neurostimulation (Burst TENS) can trigger a muscle contraction in the area of
stimulation. We therefore ask you to perform this programme at rest.
