While the term sounds a little intimidating, Electrical Nerve Stimulationis painless and non-invasive. When provided under the guidance and observation of a skilled and licensed therapist, it is an effective and safe modality that is useful in treating various conditions.

At our office, we use different modes of delivery and individual units. However, standard Electrical Nerve Stimulation devices have self-adhesive electrodes that are placed around the affected area for treatment. Wire leads connect the electrodes to the main unit, via which electricity passes and interacts with the motor and /or sensory nerves (depending on the current type).
