The Differences In Tens Therapy and Interferential Therapy

Infrex Interferential Tens Machine

Carryover Pain Relief

    A major difference in using a tens machine versus an Infrex interferential machine is what is referred to as “residual” or “carryover pain relief”.

Simply stated it’s if you turn off a tens machine the pain returns, however after a 15 – 45 minute interferential treatment the pain does not come back.   The carryover pain relief time period usually extends over time and most Infrex patients end up only needing to take a treatment weekly, or monthly.   For more information watch this video on carryover pain relief……
