How Dual-Channel Nerve-Gate Pulse works
-
Dual channels
two independent outputs treat two areas at the same time.
-
TENS
pulses help 'close the gate' on the pain signal near the sore spot.
-
EMS
modes gently contract the muscle to help it relax.
-
24 programs and adjustable intensity, pocket-sized and rechargeable.

The science, honestly
How the science reads: TENS sends gentle electrical pulses through the skin. Under the long-standing gate-control theory, stimulating large A-beta sensory nerves helps 'close the gate' in the spinal cord that carries pain signals to the brain, and TENS is also linked to the body's own natural opioids. Reviews note that adequate intensity (dose) matters most for relief. This is a consumer TENS/EMS device, not a cure.

What to expect
-
During a session
Gentle pulses work the areas and many people feel relief while it's running.
-
After a session
The treated areas feel calmer once the muscle relaxes.
-
Ongoing
A drug-free tool to reach for whenever pain flares.
