Electrical stimulation devices can be useful for certain people, but they should not be treated like ordinary lifestyle gadgets. Understanding what the device does, reading its instructions and knowing when professional advice is needed are important parts of using TENS or EMS responsibly.
Start With the User Manual
Before switching on a TENS + EMS device, read the manufacturer's instructions carefully.
The manual should explain how to connect the electrodes, select modes, adjust intensity and charge the device. Users should follow those instructions rather than copying electrode placements from unrelated devices.
Start Conservatively
A TENS/EMS device may provide multiple intensity levels. The DrBash model has 20 intensity levels, but that does not mean users should immediately select a high setting.
Use the settings according to the manufacturer's instructions and your healthcare professional's advice where appropriate.
Pay Attention to Electrode Placement
Correct electrode placement is important.
Clinical guidance advises avoiding areas such as the front of the neck, eyes and mouth, and areas around the heart. TENS should also not be placed on broken or irritated skin.
Who Should Seek Advice First?
TENS may not be appropriate for everyone. NHS guidance specifically advises against TENS for people with pacemakers or epilepsy and recommends medical advice during pregnancy.
People with implanted electronic devices or other medical conditions should speak with a qualified healthcare professional before using electrical stimulation.
Don't Use It While Driving
Portable electrical stimulation devices should not be used while driving or operating machinery because involuntary muscle contractions could create a safety risk.
Keep Children Away From the Device
TENS/EMS equipment should be kept away from children and used only as intended.

Remember: TENS and EMS are not suitable for everyone. Always read the user manual and consult a healthcare professional if you have questions about whether this type of device is appropriate for you.
