TENS and AL-TENS [acupuncture-like TENS] are shown to be effective in pain control over placebo in this review. Heterogeneity of the included studies was observed, which might be due to the different study designs and outcomes used. More well designed studies with a standardized protocol and adequate number of participants are needed to conclude the effectiveness of TENS in the treatment of OA of the knee. | TENS and AL-TENS [acupuncture-like TENS] are shown to be effective in pain control over placebo in this review.

I too have the arm/rotator cuff problem and have found the TENS unit very helpful for the pain. If you have insurance coverage, you should give it a try. My provider paid to rent one per month to see if it helps. I use an Epix XL, my husband just got an Epix VT for his back. | I too have the arm/rotator cuff problem and have found the TENS unit very helpful for the pain.
