If you’re familiar with TENS and EMS devices, you know that there are quite a few different options in the HiDow catalog. It can be difficult to decide which one is best for you to use! Well, there are quite a few different options depending on what kind of use you need to get out of your TENS unit.
Today, let’s look at which TENS unit is best suited for at-home use. This is important because receiving the incredible benefits of muscle stimulation shouldn’t be reserved exclusively for visits to your physical therapist. Now that TENS devices are more affordable and as convenient as ever, you can start to use them for your at-home workout routines! Here are our top picks for the best TENS unit for home use.
Wired TENS Devices
Just because some TENS devices are wired, doesn’t mean that they aren’t on the cutting edge of TENS therapy. Here are a few wired TENS devices that are incredible for at-home use.
XP Micro
If you’re passionate about pain relief and muscle stimulation, but you want a TENS unit that is simple and easy to use, then this is the perfect TENS device for you. The XP Micro is a small and affordable TENS device that offers all of the pain relief that you could need. It uses dual output channels to allow for up to 4 electrode pads for treatment on multiple areas. While this device is wired, it is small enough that transporting it is easy enough.
XPD 12
The XPD 12 is a powerhouse TENS/EMS that features 12 modes; 6 TENS settings and 6 additional EMS settings (hence the 12 in the name). This makes it an incredible device for both pain management and muscle stimulation. As with the XP Micro, the XPD 12 has 2 different output channels to allow for multiple treatment areas. This device is excellent for at-home use, but again it is small enough to take with you on the go!
XPDS 18
The XPDS 18 builds on the XPD 12 by adding another 6 modes. Of the three models that we have looked at, it is the most “at home” of the models. It has a lot of features and it is only a little bigger than the rest, but it is still highly portable. The XPDS 18 also has 2 output channels for treating multiple areas at home while you exercise. The pros of this device are more Mode options, but the technology is not far off from that of the XPD 12. Still very easy to use at home without b
Pro-Touch 6 12
Last, but certainly not least, is a fan favorite— the Pro Touch 6 12. The Pro Touch is a wireless TENS device that is perfect for use at home or on the go. Using wireless TENS and EMS devices is incredibly comfortable and convenient. Whether you are working out at home or simply sitting down while you alleviate pain. The Pro Touch may be the ultimate TENS and EMS device to use at home. Because of the comfort that the wireless receivers allow.
