BeurerEM50 TENS Unit and Heating Pad - Portable Period Cramps Pain Relief, Rechargeable, Auto Shut-Off, 15 TENS Levels, Fast Heating, for Drug-Free Menstrual or Lower Back Pain Relief

I debated purchasing this due to the higher price, but it is well worth it! I use it on my lower back as well, and love the ease of use since it is rechargeable. Wish I had purchased sooner!

My periods are very painful.I have an active job.I can't just take off 2 days per month to stay in bed with a heating pad, taking pain killers that destroy my stomach.After seeing an ad on social media for a TENS device, I went to Amazon.I wanted something that would hide under my clothes, and I didn't want to spend too much on it in case it didn't work, and this one fit those two requirements.Plus it has heat, which helps anyway, and I wouldn't have to keep buying those adhesive heating pads because my skin doesn't really like adhesive and they fall off easily, plus they're pretty wasteful.(It's not great to have to decide between being in pain or being itchy.)This device actually works!The tingling took some getting used to, but it really did take away the pain, and lasted even after the device shut off.The heat was really nice.Yes, I still had to take Tylenol, but that's easy on my stomach.I was able to work without being completely miserable, either in pain or extremely nauseated.I just wish the battery lasted a little longer, and that you could shut off the beeping.I really have no complaints for this device.It's inexpensive, it works, it hides under my clothes, has heat, and actually stays stuck to my skin.I've recommended this to a friend, and I think I'm going to purchase a second one so I can always have one fully charged and ready to go.

This product is amazing for what it’s for. It helps me recover and feel stimulated on the parts of my body that I use it on( mainly the ankle and knee). I’ve had surgery on these parts of my body and after physical activities it helps me feel way better afterwards.

I've had numerous back procedures (nerve ablasion, laminectomy, and fusion) that left me with chronic back and leg nerve pains. The nerve ablasions last about 15 months before the nerves grow back. I was prescribed a TENS unit and provided replacement pads prescribed by my pain management Dr in WI, but when I moved to another state, the new state was outside my TENS provider's service area. My unit was hooked up and I placed it on the counter next to the sink. As I walked back from the sink, it was pulled the hot water. Oops!!!Reading the reviews for units offered on Amazon, this Beurer unit seemed to best fit my needs and at a good price. The unit arrived in 2 days. Instructions were very clear and charts for body placement and unit programs were very helpful. An easy-to-comprehend screen appears for programming once you have your pads in place and turn the unit on. The selected program didn't give me the power level I wanted, but was easily adjusted through the menu.In summary: easy-to-read Instructions, quick setup with AAA batteries provided, instantaneous relief 😌 to the neuropathy pain in my legs. Very nice sleek unit that will fit in my pocket or hook on a belt.

I am typically not someone to leave reviews - but this is REALLY, REALLY BAD! This item seemed promising at first. It worked fine for about a week. I was thrilled because my period cramps are extremely painful and this device eased some of the pain. However, it quickly stopped working, starting with the buttons flashing orange and a beeping noise about 20 times, then would turn off. I am under the impression that this is a sign of low battery level, but in this case, I could charge it for hours upon hours and it STILL WOULD NOT COME ON. Now, it won’t light up at all and is completely dead no matter how long it sits on the charger. Mind you, I returned one of these devices a couple months ago because it stopped working, and got a new one in the mail, but the new one doesn’t work either, and now I am past my return date. I am very disappointed, especially considering this item was not necessarily cheap. I would NOT recommend this to ANYONE!
