TENS in case of knee joint complaints

A number of muscles and their ligaments ensure a stable knee. Through targeted stimulation, these muscles can be stimulated and the blood circulation increased. Better blood circulation and strengthening of the entire leg muscles benefit the knee joint and support pain-free movements.

Application of stimulation current electrodes in case of knee joint complaints:

Specially developed knee electrodes adapt ideally to the shape of your knee and noticeably facilitate the attachment to the knee joint. Here you can see the correct electrode placement for TENS pain therapy. For this application you need a TENS device with at least two channels.
