Electrical Stimulation (TENS) Therapy at Marsteller Family Chiropractic

Electrical Stimulation Therapy, also known as TENS therapy, uses gentle electrical pulses to help reduce pain, improve circulation, and support the body’s natural healing process.

It is a safe, non-invasive treatment that works by stimulating nerves and muscles to relieve discomfort and improve function.

How Electrical Stimulation Works

Small electrode pads are placed on the skin near the painful or injured area. The device delivers mild electrical impulses that block pain signals from reaching the brain and stimulate natural pain-relieving chemicals (endorphins). It also improves blood flow to injured tissues, reduces muscle tension and spasms, and promotes healing and tissue repair. Most patients feel a gentle tingling or pulsing sensation during treatment.

What Conditions It Helps

Electrical stimulation therapy is commonly used to treat:

  • Back and neck pain
  • Muscle spasms or tightness
  • Joint pain or arthritis
  • Sciatica and nerve irritation
  • Peripheral neuropathy symptoms
  • Injury recovery
  • Chronic pain conditions
  • Inflammation and swelling

Benefits of TENS Therapy

It is often combined with chiropractic adjustments and therapeutic exercises for better long-term results. Patients often experience:

  • Fast pain relief
  • Reduced muscle tension
  • Improved circulation
  • Faster healing
  • Increased mobility
  • Relaxation of tight or overworked muscles

What to Expect During Treatment

Your session is quick, comfortable, and relaxing. Electrodes are placed on the treatment area, and intensity is adjusted to your comfort level. Sessions typically last 10-20 minutes, with no downtime — you can return to normal activities immediately.

Our Goal

Electrical stimulation helps calm irritated nerves and muscles so your body can heal more efficiently. We use TENS therapy to help you feel better faster — and support long-lasting recovery.
