AUVON Dual Channel TENS Machine for Pain Relief, 8 Pcs TENS Pad Replacement

Bought it to take on holiday to enable me to keep moving. It definitely helped! I wore it in the hotel room and while on the move. It has a little holder with a belt hook and it is so compact, you can wear it under your clothes undetected. In terms of pain relief it did help, does it get rid of the pain, no it doesn’t. However, it makes it much more manageable. So for me it was definitely a help. It has a variety of programs to choose from, and you can make it as gentle or intense as you wish. Most of the time level 4/5 was it for me. I would recommend this product as it helped me keep on going throughout my holiday.

This TENS unit is quite nice. It is powerful and has many different settings. Being able to use four pads at once is helpful. The pads are extremely sticky and well-made. So far, I have not had to wet them down to 'restick' them. This set also comes with a pad to stick the pads on after use which keeps them clean. Overall, I'm quite happy with this purchase. It does the job well for my sciatica and back pain.

Does as it says, simple easy to use, could do with a multi clipping strap but does as it was made for and i would recommend it, just don’t clip it to your too or waist if you’re around water use a pocket, purse handbag

My daughter has EDS and has a back injury due to this, she has been in pain for months. This has been a massive help to keep the pain under control. She goes to college wearing it. This is the 2nd tens, the 1st was made by glyntora, the charging port broke within 2 months. This Auvon tens is the same price but far superior in quality and she says it’s much more powerful. She can’t take anti inflammatory meds due to having 1 kidney and the only alternatives can cause addiction so this has been invaluable. You can use 1 lead and have 2 pads attached or 2 leads and 4 pads, you can program the leads to do separate modes. It comes with a plastic part to stick the pads to in between uses, extra pads and a clear plastic holder with a clip so you attach to clothing if you wish. I would absolutely recommend this and would definitely buy again.

Great little machine. Has multiple modes& is easy to use. I used it multiple times a day after jarring my back & it really helped ease the pain. Sticky pads didn't lose their stick.

Very skeptical but worth a shot for 25 quid if it does anything to help arthritic hip pain. Did not think it would do much as pain is in the joint, not the muscle. Struggled to get pads onto hip, they're bloody sticky, but managed. Getting them off the packing is a game as they keep sticking to fingers. Next time I will connect leads after placing pads! Getting them off was also tricky but will definitely get easier with experience. Absolutely amazed at how well it works. I messed around for an hour or more trying various modes, 4 bars more than enough for me. Managed to sleep on both sides without joint pain! Next morning could walk without pain, kept losing my stick as I put it down then walked off & forgot it. Best part is that it stops me walking off-kilter and making my knee and other muscles hurt. Honestly couldn't believe it. Waaaay better than codine paracetamol, even the strong 30/500 stuff.

What a great little machine! Numerous pads, modes and power settings and great battery life. Bought it to help with Medial epicondylitis (better know as golfers elbow). It has helped enormously and I'm sure it would help on other conditions also. You most certainly won't need to go high power though unless you're a masochist! 5*'s

Cons. I found it incredibly difficult to place the pads for effect. Possibly due to my quite complicated back issues. I had to reposition the pads so many times that by the second use the adhesive was already struggling to work. The modes aren't much different. They are extremely inconsistent. When using both A and B channels on the SAME mode, the sensation was totally different. Whatever I did I couldn't get both to produce the same pattern. In the end it annoyed me so much I gave up and did different areas seperately. The same mode even varied between uses. The instructions could have been far simpler. Actual operation of the unit is straightforward but the instructions overwhelmed me when I first looked at them and had to come back later in the day when I had more patience. A simple diagram labelling the unit would make far more sense. I have high blood pressure that is controlled by medication. Warnings stated that those with high blood pressure shouldn't use a tens machine. Online info from NHS etc stated it's safe for those with high blood pressure to use tens. I was in fact advised to try tens by a nurse practitioner at my GP surgery. Makes you wonder about the accuracy of other info given. Pros. It DID provide relief to me for chronic nerve pain that hasn't responded to medication for years. Efficacy is directly related to how bad my pain is. The first time I used it when particularly sore it didn't work as well. If I turned up the intensity it was unpleasant with random sharp needle like sensations which are possibly what some people are experiencing as the electric shocks that make them stop using it return the unit It's tiny so easily carried in a pocket for use whilst moving about it away from home. The charger is very useful. I've only just bought the unit so can only comment based on using it a couple of times.
