Veridian Replacement Heat Conductive Knee Wrap 22-050

Veridian Replacement Heat Conductive Knee Wrap 22-050 Knee pain is the second most common medical complaint in adults – as many as one in two people may develop osteoarthritis in the knee by age 65. Underlying causes and pain type can vary greatly from person to person. This constrictive knee wrap often aids in knee pain relief coupled with TENS + Heat therapy. This wrap offers a drug-free pain relief solution. TENS therapy uses low voltage electrical current to provide pain relief. There are two hypotheses explaining how TENS works. One hypothesis is that the electric current stimulates nerve cells that block the transmission of pain signals, modifying perception of pain. The other hypothesis is that nerve stimulation raises the level of endorphins, which are the body's natural pain-killing chemical. The endorphins then block the perception of pain. The TENS controller unit is sold separately.
